These are the Fuses for the Brakes under the Knee Panel on the Passenger Side. In a small compartment with a drop down panel and a turnbuckle to open it with a coin. One is for the Brake Pump and the Other is for the ABS and each one is Clearly marked on the drop down Panel, so you know which ones which.

When you 'Crack' this Nut be VERY CAREFUL! It will contain Brake Fluid under High Pressure! which could then Squirt out in any direction. Don't let any Brake Fluid get on the Paint!

The Teves Master Cylinder/Actuator as fitted to my 1989 XJS V12. Keep the image of that Pipe in mind, its part of the High Pressure System that needs to be bled, especially if the Reservoir ever ran dry.

Slacken off the Boss Belt Tensioner Wheel, which will make it easier to get to each nut in turn. BUT DO NOT ALLOW THE ENGINE TO MOVE WHILE YOU DO THIS. Only turn the Boss and nothing more

The Fan Shroud was a PIA to remove, as I had to undo the lower fixing bolts which meant removing the under tray which I had only refitted a few Weeks before
