HI Dave, Yep definitely the lambda sensor,I bought a code reader & hooked it up & sure enough P1000 was the reading so checked the code to find you were right mate. I also got a reading of 1467 which showed a sensor located under the air filter but my mechanic said both readings were connected to the lambda. He also told me to clear the faults on my reader & said once cleared leave the engine turning over for half an hour which would give the ecu a chance to update but even if the light comes back on not to worry as it won,t affect the car in any way. I like to keep things pristine on my jag so I,ve asked the mechanic to change the plugs & put a new lambda sensor onto it.

I have a code p1000 showing on my reader & the engine management DOES come on. Every time I clear the fault the light goes out but when I drive the car ten feet it comes back on. My car is well maintained & serviced regularly and it is really irritating to see the fault light when my car is running as it should. The only reason I can think of that may have caused the fault is I gave my sons jag a jump start a couple of days ago & I haven,t started the car since then. Would this have caused the fault & if so how do I clear it???
