Dynamic Stability Control Switch

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.

The DSC switch is mounted in the floor console adjacent to the Jaguar Drive selector.

DSC becomes active whenever the engine is running. A momentary press of the switch allows the driver to toggle between the standard DSC settings and the optimized TracDSC settings. The message TRAC DSC or DSC ON will temporarily be displayed in the instrument cluster message center. The amber DSC warning indicator in the instrument cluster remains illuminated while TracDSC is selected.

The DSC can be switched off by pressing and holding the switch for more than 10 seconds (3 seconds for XKR-S vehicles).

In each case the message DSC OFF will be displayed in the instrument cluster message center to confirm DSC has been switched off. The amber DSC OFF warning indicator in the instrument cluster will remain illuminated. The system can be switched back on again by simply pressing and releasing the switch. The message DSC ON will then temporarily appear in the instrument cluster message center to confirm the system is on.

NOTE: Switch requests may be delayed if the switch is pressed while a DSC operation is taking place. The switch request will be displayed in the instrument cluster but the ABS module will not initiate any stability changes until it is safe to do so.

DSC returns to ON at the beginning of each ignition cycle, regardless of the previous setting. The exception to this is when the ignition is switched off only briefly and the ABS module remains powered, as indicated by the continued illumination of the P indicator on the Jaguar Drive selector.

If a fault is detected with the DSC switch, the ABS module defaults to the DSC on setting and any switch requests are ignored.

WARNING: It is recommended that when using snow chains, DSC is switched on and Jaguar Drive control winter mode is selected.
