Have a look here Andy;

Unfortunately you do not have a ”service connection” to enable remote movement of the seat and there is no way to manually move them.

You will therefore have to remove it and then apply 12v to the motor in order to move it. Assuming of course the motor has not been damaged by the water.

Mike 😀

Very nice Mike, although a bit too far for a day visit. If I come up with anything else I will email you.🤙

What part of Yorkshire are in?

My 4.2 is supercharged ...  will that also apply to the wiring diagram you sent.

Yes it does.

My current problem on the 4.2 is that it loses its charge within 24 hours.  I have (not me but others as I am a dinosaur) had the alpine amplifier system disconnected as told it seemed it could be a regular fault.... but that did not cure it.

The most common problem for a drain is the ”alarm chirp sounder”. The internal rechargeable batteries short out over time causing the drain. The other is the little flap in the ignition barrel not closing when the key is removed.

The easiest way to deal with the sounder is to simply disconnect it and then see if the battery is still discharging.

The ignition switch flap will just need a little graphite grease to lubricate it, if indeed it is stuck open.

Hi Mike,

The manual I sent you will have the 4.2 engine wiring in it. The rest of the manual is the same for both.

Hi  I posted last month (26th. I think) seeking a wiring diagram for my 2006 S TYPE 2.7 Diesel and have not had any contact since.  Can you tell me if there is an active members club for this car so I can appeal more directly.   Mike 07479 463570    tigerbay50@outlook.com 

 

Many thanks

 

Mike

Here you go Mike.

Do you happen to know if I can get an up to date disc, the one I have is 2009.

The latest Jaguar disc you can get is 2012, Frank. If you need more up to date then you will have to go aftermarket.

Hit and miss, Tim. Some had them, some didn’t. If the one you’re looking at hasn’t got one then there should be a trim piece that covers the floor. It should also have the can of blow up foam in case of puncture.

Sourcing from the internet would be your best bet if you really want a spare.

HI JIM THANKS IT WORK  ALLAN 

Glad to have been of help to you, Allan.🤙

Excellent news Pete and thanks for the update.🤙

Hi Allan,

Put the mirror in it’s driving position first. Now adjust the glass inwards. Now put your fingers into the side of the glass and simply pull. It will just pop of it’s mounting.

Make sure your other hand is there to steady the glass in case it falls.

As they are generally electrical problems, the first thing to do is to check your battery voltage at the terminals.

That sounds very high. My understanding is that quiescent drain should be less tham 30mA. That is 0.03A.

Quite right John.

Will look at the alarm sounder early next week as I get the impression that this is the first port of call to resolve the issue.

You should be able to disconnect it to prove the theory, Pete.

Just another thought, you don’t have a tracker fitted or something plugged into the OBD port, do you?

This is the part number, DAC11150, you may be able to get one from eBay

I charged the battery again and connected the +ve terminal. I had my multimeter set on Amps and connected the negative terminal via the meter. To my surprise it was showing 9 Amps. So I have a serious issue, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Not quite Pete. As soon as you reconnect the battery, the infotainment centre will flash up and that is where your 9A is coming from.

You would need to wait 30 minutes for the various modules to shutdown to get a more accurate reading of any parasitic drain.

The most common fault is the alarm chirp sounder internal batteries shorting out causing the drain. The sounder sits under the driver’s side bonnet hinge and is quite fiddly to get to.

Hi Rod and welcome.

There is no fuse. The lock is electronically controlled by the front electronic module for the cabin switches and the rear electronic module for the boot switch.

Most likely cause would be a broken wire in the boot loom at the hinge point.

Sorry to hear that Paul. Hopefully your Indy can get it done for you.

Hi Paul, you would need to remove the wheel and the wheel arch liner also.

This is the guy I use and so do many others and you certainly won’t get ripped off.
