Connect an OBD reader to the car and see what fault codes come up. With Jaguars, it can be a myriad of diferent things causing the same fault. Also, check your battery voltage. The battery needs to be in tip top condition.

Thanks very much I will give it a go.

hi

generic code reader will only read engine codes, so no use, only Jaguar IDS/SDD software will communicate with epb and central locking modules

make sure your battery fully charged first, put it on charge overnight, low battery cause lots of issues with epb

if it still does it, its going to be something like faulty epb motor, faulty module if boots damp, stiff caliper cables or stiff calipers

central locking, first check the button click on the remotes, sometime the micro switch inside the remote fail and operate on there own or even stay stuck on

if there ok, its going be a sticky door lock, wd40 inside them often cures them

cheers
