so basically it needs jaguar to program them if we can fix them before going for mot again Joe? 

has it happened  because of the battery being disconnected?? just seems to have happened!   

all new to me so do appreciate the help  thanks 

ok update time !!

problem solved..turned out to be a bad connection on the master plug (on the fuel tank) plus battery being a bit weak.

so all fixed and off for an mot .....which it now failed on 1 tyre having a cut on the inside (missed this I admit) and the lights being "too low on the aim" due to the self levelling not working 😖😖

any ideas on why they have stopped and any remedies accepted 

pumps work with direct power to them, 2nd hand module bought from eurojags , no joy, all fuses checked a couple 10amp  had blown ie..dash illumination etc 

checked and double checked everything you mentioned Joe  even checked all pug ends for voltage etc   nothing!! 

but put direct power to the pumps and fires straight up???

ps.. yes there is fuel in😆

so have for finally got everything back on the s type r  ready for test today,  battery back on but fuel pumps wouldn't work!!! any ideas  we have 'hot wired' them to work ...any idea's or advice  please

york

been looking at this on eBay ...can anyone advise me on how big a job  any other problems  might arise etc etc or steer clear ??? is the gem6 easy to obtain and fit

some of what we were up against  Peter 

hi Andy

try googling  jdc area11club tees valley  they meet on a Tuesday night  can't remember which one but it'll be on the website 

unfortunately I won't be attending  on Sunday  as my mechanic isn't going to get the repairs done to the sills etc and MOTD in time 😫😫

how do I get rid of all the ads when looking at this site? or are they always on , or is it just on my phone that I need to change something 

thanks Gareth 

oswestryalex.......you really don't want to see the state of the sills😭😭 but they are being done properly  rest of the car is fine  (hopefully)😆

sounds like fun hopefully I will have the sills welded and put back together  along with  a new mot🤞🤞 on mine 

hi jaaaaaaaaaag ! I'm looking at doing this to mine what kit did you  use and where did you get it from etc etc

also how easy/hard is it to do? 

thanks Gareth 

hi guys,

does the s type r  or regular s types suffer from wheel mis- alignment ?? camber issues e.g. toe in/out 

and if so what are they .... and what rectification can be made

thanks Gareth 

I'm new to owning an s type r  and am going to be doing some work on it soon which will require the battery disconnecting,  is there anything I need to do prior to removing the battery?? or is it a case of just following the pdf document on reconnection 

thanks Gareth 

thanks for the info and pictures Joe handy to know👍

hi Ted 

I also have recently bought an s type r 2002 with 78 on the clock pulls like a train everything works apart from the phone at the moment 

only issue I have is that it needs some welding underneath to get it through an mot  going to take the sills off as well to check what they are like  

be interested to find out about the codes as well 

Gareth

is there anyway of linking the Motorola phone in the car with today's modern phones  i.e.  Bluetooth pairing etc any retro kit needed or not ???

thanks Joe 😕😕

after reading all that and what it' failed an mot by  think I'm going to be sick and then set fire to it 😂😂
