2000 Jaguar XJRFACTORY OEM SERVICE PROCEDURE

Principles of Operation

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 6 other vehicles, including the 2008 Jaguar S-Type, 2007 Jaguar S-Type, 2006 Jaguar S-Type, 2005 Jaguar S-Type, and 2004 Jaguar S-Type. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Module Configuration 

There are two modes of configuration data. The first type requires configuration information so that the module can interact with the vehicle correctly. This information will be transferred to the new module using the Jaguar Approved Diagnostic System, so that it will contain the same settings as the old module.

Modules which require configuration when installing a replacement module are:

  • Engine control module (ECM)
  • Transmission control module (TCM)
  • Audio unit
  • Drivers door module (DDM)
  • Rear electronic module (REM)
  • Front electronic module (FEM)
  • Amplifier
  • Intrusion sensor module
  • Multifunction voice activated control module
  • Headlamp levelling module (ADHLS)
  • Electronic park brake (EPB) module
  • Instrument cluster and message center
  • Climate control module

Customer Driven Preferences 

The second type of configuration data is customer preference driven. These are items that the customer may or may not want to have enabled. Typically, customer preference items can be toggled on or off by the use of a compatible scan tool. You may need to ask the customer which preferences they had enabled prior to installation of the new module, although after installation they will automatically learn the settings by receiving information from existing modules.

To carry out the customer configuration process, use the Jaguar Approved Diagnostic System. Refer to the Dealer Options Index for modules on the vehicle that have customer preference items. Configure the items as needed.

Modules which can be configured with dealer options are:

  • The FEM.
  • The instrument cluster and message center.
  • TCM (market configuration).
  • ECM (market configuration).
  • Intrusion sensor module.
  • Multifunction voice activated control module (market configuration).
  • Audio unit (market configuration)
