Hi, can anyone please help? my x type v6 2003 has the door open light showing and the interior lights are on all the time, I have tried closing all the locks manually but it still shows open

At minus five degrees i had this problem yesterday morning. I sprayed anti freeze into all the door catch mechanisms and it cured the problem for me. It is frustraiting that Jag did not fit an overide switch to turn off the interior lights.

Ouch - I wish you luck ......

My 2005 2.5 manual had a similar problem that originated from the central locking system. It proved to need a major locking system

job, that included the drivers door handle needing replacing as the fixings were corroded into the handle. I think my final bill was just

under £700 (Main Dealer) .

As I didn't use the car every day I had to disconnect the battery to prevent the interior light flattening the battery. As it was several years

ago now I can't recall if there were other locking problems, one of which I think was that I couldn't lock the car or the intruder alarm set

off warning that a door was not secured.

Other than that not much help I'm afraid.
