  1. Hi Raistlin, Just came across your posting but the link appears to no longer work. Do you have any manuals, parts explosions, etc. for a 2001 S-Type? Also do you know of any resources for obtaining replacement parts for a 2001 S-Type? Any help appreciated. Roy
  2. Does anyone have a source or know where I can get replacement parts for my 2001 Jaguar S-Type (J-Reg)? I understand that, given the age of the car, Jaguar don't have lots of spare parts in their stock. Happy to buy used/second hand parts. Are there breakers yards that sell spare parts. I'm specifically looking for rear door auto/electronic locking motor/mechanism. Thanks Roy
  3. Does anyone know where I can get and download a parts explosion manual for my 2001 Jaguar S-Type (J-Reg)? Thanks Roy
  4. Hi Kev, Just came across your post. I had this problem a few years ago. On a very hot day and after the car had been sitting in the sun for many hours, I tried to open all the windows and suddenly I heard a clanging noise coming from the right rear door. What had actually happened is the glass had fallen out of the frame. Something to do with the adhesive had melted. The cable is you mention is attached to the motor and is what raises and lowers the window. I had to take to dealer to get glass refitted. Hope this helps. Roy
  5. Hash, I wonder if the battery in the fob might need replacing. I've had to replace the battery in my fobs several times over the years when they stopped working. The symptom was that I had to press the buttons several times and stand very close to the car to work. You can change the battery yourself. Do you have spare fob to try? Does it do the same thing? I didn't know the software could be reset without having the garage do it. Would you send me the link on how to reset the software please.
  6. Thanks to Joe and Hash for replies. I have now discovered by accident (and this is a change from pre new battery), that I have to press 'lock' on the key fob twice to lock both the front doors then the rear doors. Likewise, I have to press 'lock' on the key fob twice to unlock both the front and rear doors. The pattern seems to be: press once to lock the front doors, then press again and to lock the rear doors. Very strange! As I say above this is a change from before I had the new battery put in. In fact. its a sudden change since the car was new. Before I only needed to press either lock and unlock once on the key fob to lock and unlock all the doors. Hash - don't know if this helps you or not. Before I replaced the battery. I did notice that I sometimes had to press the key fob several times to get the doors to open and also that the auto seat position set in the key fob didn't work as well as it used to. At least I now know how to lock and unlock the doors! Thanks again to everyone for your help and ideas. Roy
  7. Peter & Jim, Thank you both for your replies. I'll try your suggestions. Nice Jags, by the way! Roy
  8. Recently had a new battery installed. Now both rear door locks aren't working properly. Of course, when the guy at Halfords disconnected the old battery everything went dead - I wonder if tis may have affected the computer system and/or the electronic door mechanism? I discovered several days later that rear door locks are playing up. 1) The right rear always locks correctly but will only unlock intermittently and 2) the left rear door will not unlock at all. Both rear doors were working perfectly before the battery was replaced. I seem to recall many years ago when a previous battery was being replaced by the Jag garage, that the mechanic mentioned me that you must maintain power to the car electronics while the battery is being replace. Could this be true? Does anyone have any ideas on what may have caused this door lock problem on both rear doors at the same time? Any ideas on how to repair the problem or is it a complete replacement of each door locking mechanism? All help greatly appreciated.
