Inspection And Verification
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.
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
- Verify the customer concern
- Visually inspect for obvious signs of damage and system integrity
VISUAL INSPECTION
Mechanical Electrical - Check the power steering fluid level
- Fuses
CAUTION: If a steering gear assembly is returned under warranty with leaking rack bar seals or high friction, but there is also damage to the steering gear boot/boots, tie-rods or rack bar teeth, then the steering gear warranty will be invalid. This is due to the steering gear rack bar seals being damaged due to foreign materials entering the steering gear boot and damaging the steering gear rack bar seals thereafter or because of bending from abusive/accident events - If an obvious cause for an observed or reported concern is found, correct the cause (if possible) before proceeding to the next step
- If the concern is not visually evident, verify the symptom and refer to the symptom charts below
