  1. I hope so too. It's an intermittent fault dash lights up light Blackpool illuminations, revs go to around 2500rpm. The only solution is to turn off, remove key and wait 20-30secs, until all lights go out then restart the engine. My local indy garage said it showed as a tps fault which they replaced, but then it still happened occasionally, then they thought it was a break in the wiring (5v reference supply) which they bypassed, said its had a few test drives now, no problem, the next day after I collected it, it happened again! 🙄 now they're saying it can only be the engine ECU around £1400 new 😳😳 they were waiting on getting one from the local Jag breakers, but I managed to get one on Ebay for £150 (was £199, or best offer) along with 11 other items included :- dash, ignition, keys, door lock, boot lock, other electronic modules (BSM's ??) Etc a good deal, especially as a breakers in Liverpool wanted £240 Just for the ECU 🤔 now it's booked in again 4th July. Another strange thing is if I apply the handbrake at traffic lights, junctions etc when stationary, it seems to trigger the 'fault' as I've not done this since, except when parking it hasn't occurred again so far (touch wood). I did pass on this info, but was told there's no connection between the h/brake module and the tps, but as I pointed out, when the h/brake is on and you press the throttle pedal it disengages the brake, so there is some sort of connection? We shall see after the ECU is changed. I will update this post when there is more to report 😎
  2. Thanks for taking the time to reply 😊 according to a jag dismantlers on Ebay the number has to exactly match, so I've now located and ordered one that does! 😎
  3. Hi, I've had the same, it could be moisture ingress in the sensor head itself. I've had to have one replaced in the past for this reason.
  4. Hi, I'm new here I've joined to see if anyone can answer this question. My engine ECU no. Is 4R83-10K975-BA what do the last 2 letters signify? I've looked for a replacement on ebay etc and there are several with different letters at the end instead of BA like mine. ie AA, AF, BH .... any help would be much appreciated! TIA
