Symptom Driven Diagnostics (SDD)

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 12 other vehicles, including the 2015 Jaguar XKR-S, 2015 Jaguar XKR, 2015 Jaguar XK, 2014 Jaguar XKR-S, and 2014 Jaguar XKR. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Following the battery condition test and transit relay removal, SDD is to be connected to the vehicle and the PDI application run. The PDI application will enable certain vehicle systems, and reset the flight recorder. These systems include:

The flight recorder captures certain diagnostic data under special conditions. During vehicle production, certain Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC's) are captured as high priority events. These events will subsequently overwrite any stored lower priority events. This may have the effect of capturing irrelevant build data and not retain any relevant vehicle DTC's.

In order to retrieve relevant active vehicle DTC's, ensure that the DTC Monitor application is run to read and clear as per step  5 below. Run the SDD, PDI application:

  1. Connect the SDD equipment to the vehicle J1962 diagnostic connector.
  2. Select 'Vehicle Configuration'.
  3. From the menu, select 'Special Applications'.
  4. From the sub-menu, select 'Pre-Delivery Inspection'.
  5. Once the application has run and completed successfully, clear the fault codes using SDD DTC Monitor application. Then shutdown SDD and disconnect from the vehicle.
