Okay so all doors checked in the closed position with the screw driver. No difference the Door ajar light persists. So now I am thinking its the door sensor.. does anyone have any ideas on a quick diagnosis or does it have to be the process of elimination through the doors and boot.

Hi Rich Thank you for your detail response. So initially all doors are closed and locked I've checked and checked and rechecked.. boot included. I will be checking again with your screw driver method later today and hopefully that with bring a resolve! If not like you say maybe look at replacing the lock/latch on the drivers door. Regarding the window.. I probably didn't include as much detail as I should have. The glass itself seems to have dropped and no longer be connected. It is currently propped up with a door stop 😑 If I try to use the electrical operation you just get the crunching sound. Thanks

Good afternoon folks, I have just signed up to the forum and would like to share the problem I'm having with the Jag pros. So I have a Jag X type 2005 2.1 and owned the car for just under a year. I do get some funny looks some times as I'm 29 ( look 20) but I love the car!! There are a a shout list of issue that have now accorded and after speaking with the local Jag specialist and being quoted roughly £500 for one of the issue (over the phone) I'm looking to get my hands dirty and fix the issues myself were possible. 1) Drivers door has the intermittent problem of not wanting to open from the outside. No problems from the inside but she will open fine from the outside then the following week will not. From a quick read I guess the first thing is to check the rod in the door. 2) I now have the "Door Ajar" warning light show on the dash. It's not intermittent and is a constant. Obviously Carnot lock the car with central lock but I can lock with the key manually (car still beeps twice). I am just about to check if any of the doors are still unlocked when the car is locked as a quick diagnosis. But not sure where to start beyond that. 3) The rear near side window has also dropped 🙈 I guess this doesn't need to much of a diagnosis but any and all advice (step by step guide) would be very much appreciated. Im sure these problems have been seen and fixed in the past so anyone with any advice would be really grateful 👍🏻 Thanks for reading.
