Diagnostic Test Procedure

2002 Jaguar XKR 100, 2D CoupeSECTION Diagnostic Test Procedure
  1. Disconnect the appropriate fuel level sensor connector and measure resistance as follows:
    1. XJ Series  - Between fuel level sensor harness connector BT15 terminal No. 4 and ground
    2. XK Series  - Between fuel level sensor harness connector FT4 terminal No. 3 and ground.

    Is resistance greater than 5 ohms? If yes, go to next step. If no, go to  3.

  2. Disconnect the appropriate instrument pack connector and measure resistance as follows:
    1. XJ Series  - Between instrument pack harness connector FC25 terminal No. 14 and fuel level sensor harness connector BT15 terminal No. 4.
    2. XK Series  - Between instrument pack harness connector FC26 terminal No. 14 and fuel level sensor harness connector FT4 terminal No. 3.

    Is resistance greater than 5 ohms? If yes, repair high resistance between appropriate instrument pack harness connector and appropriate fuel level sensor harness connector. If no, go to next step.

  3. Empty the fuel tank and disconnect the appropriate fuel level sensor connectors and measure resistance between terminals on fuel tank as follows:
    1. XJ Series  - Between fuel tank sensor connectors BT14 terminal No. 3 and BT15 terminal No. 4.
    2. XK Series  - Between fuel tank sensor connectors FT5 terminal No. 4 and BT4 terminal No. 3.

    Is resistance 900 ohms? If yes, go to next step. If no, install a new fuel level sensor.

  4. Fill the fuel tank and measure resistance between terminals on fuel tank as follows:
    1. XJ Series  - Between fuel tank sensor connectors BT14 terminal No. 3 and BT15 terminal No. 4.
    2. XK Series  - Between fuel tank sensor connectors FT5 terminal No. 4 and BT4 terminal No. 3.

    Is resistance 80 ohms? If yes, go to next step. If no, install a new fuel level sensor.

  5. Measure resistance as follows:
    1. XJ Series  - Between instrument pack harness connector FC25 terminal No. 13 and fuel level sensor harness connector BT14 terminal No. 3.
    2. XK Series  - Between instrument pack harness connector FC26 terminal No. 13 and fuel level sensor harness connector FT5 terminal No. 4.

    Is resistance greater than 5 ohms? If yes, repair high resistance between appropriate instrument pack harness connector and appropriate fuel level sensor harness connector. If no, install a new instrument cluster.

When to See a Mechanic

Stop DIY work and contact a certified mechanic immediately if any of the following apply:

  • • You smell fuel, burning insulation, or see smoke.
  • • Brakes feel soft, pull hard to one side, or make grinding noises.
  • • The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
  • • You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
  • • You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
