Inspection And Verification: Notes
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2018 Jaguar XE and 2017 Jaguar XE. 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
NOTE:
- If the control module or a component is suspect and the vehicle remains under manufacturer warranty, refer to the warranty policy and procedures manual (section B1.2), or determine if any prior approval programme is in operation, prior to the installation of a new module/component
- Check and rectify basic faults before beginning diagnostic routines involving pinpoint tests
- Verify the customer concern
- Confirm the function of the warning lamp (if the warning lamp is inoperative, system faults will be signalled by an audible chime)
- Visually inspect for obvious signs of damage and system integrity
- If an obvious cause for an observed or reported concern is found, correct the cause (if possible) before proceeding to the next step. Faults in supplemental restraint system harnesses would normally mean replacement of the relevant harness. Supplemental restraint system harness repairs are not recommended
- If the cause is not visually evident, verify the symptom and refer to the Symptom Chart , alternatively check for Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) and refer to the DTC INDEX .
- Check DDW for open campaigns. Refer to the corresponding bulletins and SSMs which may be valid for the specific customer complaint and carry out the recommendations as required
- When installing or checking the supplemental Restraints System (SRS) with AK2 connectors the locking plunger must be engaged
