20 Most Recent 2005 Jaguar Vanden Plas Questions & Answers

Whilst the vehicle is running with the normal key being used hold down the valet button for a few seconds

Many things can cause resricted performance..I have a vanden plas and a xjr...and I have seen many things cause it from knock sensors, to water being sprayed on the engine or short circuiting throttle body sensors etc...the 1st thing you must do is have the code read that is causing the restricted performance ...let me know.

Ask a parts auto place or jaguar dealer parts or service dept as they will also have what you need.

Check the O2 sensor. Probably bad.

If you have no air blowing out it sounds like the blower motor has quit

it is located under the driver running board...,just raise the car and remove the lower batwing cover..you will see two ten mm bolts on both sides of the running board,then you will see 2 eight mm bolts,then three 10 mm bolts near the front. ..once its removed you will see the fuel suply line running upward where the drivers foot rest incline is and the fuel filter is just past the incline..make sure you remove the fuse in the trunk for the pump to depressurize it...good luck and let me know if you need any more help.

the lock out is unlocked by the brake lights being on, so see if they work is 1st step

Please if you can get into the car, beneath the driver side underneath the steering compartment you will get the fuse box there. Check the map and replace the fuse that has cut off.

Good luck.

THIS SHOULD BE INDICATED IN THE OWNERS MANUAL

Usually they are installed with screws, if no then they have a tension spring clipping it into position,try applying firm pressure to the this side pushing it in a forward direction, or visa versa, a small scerw driver will help lift it ffrom the panel while you push it. Obviously do not use the driver to force leverage as you risk damaging the paint, place a rag under it just in case. Hope this helps, Good luck
