Inspection And Verification
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 6 other vehicles, including the 2012 Jaguar XFR, 2012 Jaguar XF, 2011 Jaguar XFR, 2011 Jaguar XF, and 2010 Jaguar XFR. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
WARNING:
Servicing must be carried out by personnel familiar with both vehicle system and the charging and testing equipment. All operations must be carried out in a well ventilated area away from open flame and heat sources.
CAUTION:
Diagnosis by substitution from a donor vehicle is NOT
acceptable. Substitution of control modules does not guarantee confirmation of a fault, and may also cause additional faults in the vehicle being tested and/or the donor vehicle.
NOTE:
Check and rectify basic faults before beginning diagnostic routines involving pinpoint tests.
- Verify the customer concern.
- Visually inspect for obvious signs of damage and system integrity.
