Pinpoint Test G: Bolster Inflate Tests

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2020 Jaguar XE and 2019 Jaguar XE. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

G1: BOLSTER INFLATE TEST 1
NOTE: The battery support unit must be connected during this test to make sure that the power supply is stable.
NOTE:
- Circuit reference - VBATT -
- The bolster inflate circuit current specification is 1.05A ± 10%.
1. Connect an inductive ammeter to the seat switchpack power circuit
2. Set the ignition to on
3. Operate the seat switchpack bolster inflate switch
  Is the measured current less than specification?
  
  Yes
  
  GO to G2.
  
  No
  
  Check the lumbar/bolster pump hose and the bolster air cell hoses for blockages/leaks
G2: BOLSTER INFLATE TEST 2
NOTE: Do not disconnect the electrical connector during this step; the seat switchpack is removed for access to the wiring harness only.
1. Refer to the relevant article of the repair information and remove the seat switchpack
2. Set a multimeter to measure voltage
3. Using the multimeter, measure and record the battery voltage (reference voltage)
  NOTE: Circuit reference - BOLSTER INF/GND -
4. Connect the multimeter across the seat switchpack bolster inflate terminal and the ground terminal
5. Set the ignition to on
6. Operate the seat switchpack bolster inflate switch
  Is the measured voltage less than battery voltage?
  
  Yes
  
  GO to PINPOINT TEST A .
  
  No
  
  Refer to the electrical circuit diagrams and check the bolster inflate circuit for short circuit to ground, short circuit to power, open circuit, high resistance
