  24. Common XJ Flooding Problem - Tip on How to restart

    in 2003 Onwards XJ

    Posted

    Thanks to Paul Bennet on Facebook for this tip!

    X308 start it up, move it a short distance, stop. It will not start again as flooded - common X308 problem.

    Solution (RAC man showed me) remove fuse F7 (20 amp) in the boot fuse box (fuel pump fuse) - turn the engine a dozen times - replace the fuse and turn engine again - after about 4 or so attempts it should start. That will save people the £50 RAC 'no claims' bonus discount.

  25. How to charge a Flat Battery on the XJ with no access to the boot!

    in 2003 Onwards XJ

    Credit to Paul Bennet on Facebook for the following Tip!

    If you have a modern Jag and the battery goes flat, chances are the key to the boot will fail - preventing charging. There is an electronic deadlock on the boot lid. Solution - (on the X308 XJ) under the bonnet follow the main lead from the battery to the auxillary fuse boxes on t...he front right wing (as you look at the car). Two securing nuts for the cable are covered by rubber boots. Attach the positive lead from a charger to the nut and the negative to the car body. Plug in and charge - when sufficient power is there use the key fob to release the boot - this should allow the boot lid to release. Much better than main dealer solution of 'drilling' the rear plinth.
