hi, i would check your battery condition first, i was getting error messages, s type doesn't like a low battery voltage i was told. anyway i didn't realise it but my battery was only showing 11.9 volts when resting. but still starting and driving ok. should be at least 12.5. derek.

Welcome to the club, Terence.

Derek is quite right.  --  There are so many electrical instruments on Jaguar cars that when the battery is low the car can switch off some of them.

But what until you are 85 till you panic   ---  us old guys have to got to show example to the young ones.

Regards,

Peter.

HI MANY THANKS BUT ITS A BRAND NEW BATTERY  JAG ONE OH BY THE WAY I DONT LIKE GETTING OLD  t

[Old Peter]

There are not many people like getting old.  I gave up playing Rugby first, Cricket second, Golf third, & Bowls fourth.

Giving up work was not an option, though, as the Rules said 65 for my day job and 70 for my part time job.

Getting under the car was not an option either  --  I could get under but not get back!

Peter.
