#21 of 52 FAIL SAFE ENGINE LIGHT by ladykareng Apr 05, 2008 (5:03 pm)
On a Jaguar 2000 S type 4.0, the Fail Safe Engine light has started to come on whenever I turn on the air conditioning. If I do not have on the air, the light does not come on at all. When the light is on it drives very slowly, but then picks back up after about 3 hrs after I have turned off the air.   Can anyone give me give me an idea what to do....

Replying to: ladykareng (Apr 05, 2008 5:03 pm) So you aren't getting a high temperature signal or an overheat warning on your message board?   I think you need to have the car scanned for trouble codes first off and let us know what codes are stored. Autozone can do this for free in most cases.

my check engine (yellow) light came on after my car sat in a torrential downpour saturday night. The car ran ok to about 40 mph and then it started hesitating/lightly bucking on my 55 mile trip home.   Any help would be appreciated.   Rich Replies to this message: rgroski (Jul 18, 2008 9:56 am) Mr_Shiftright (Jul 20, 2008 8:29 am) rgroski (Jul 20, 2008 10:08 am) Mr_Shiftright (Jul 20, 2008 11:49 am)

I have three questions...LOL 1)Where in the world is the fuel filter? 2) Where is the transmission dipstick? 3)Have a problem starting the car after 20-30 minutes. Like it isn't getting fuel, then when it does start smells like it is nearly flooded.   Thanks, Angie Replies to this message: johndahlia (Jun 24, 2008 6:22 pm)

Replying to: angiej (Jun 24, 2008 5:46 pm) Question number 1, The fuel filter is in the gas tank. 2) The transmission is sealed, there is no dipstick if you have to have this looked at the Jaguar dealer will have to do it. 3) You car is fuel injected, have the dealer check your ignition coils. Hope this helps.

Replying to: rgroski (Jun 17, 2008 3:05 pm) Did a trouble code tip you off on that? Replies to this message: rgroski (Jul 20, 2008 10:08 am) Mr_Shiftright (Jul 20, 2008 11:49 am)

Replying to: Mr_Shiftright (Jul 20, 2008 8:29 am) When I brought the car to Autozone the code was a bad piston which tipped the dealer's repair service to mention to me that it may be a bad coil. It turned out that 3 coils were bad so I replaces all 6. Replies to this message: Mr_Shiftright (Jul 20, 2008 11:49 am)
