The light comes on when the transmission goes into the "limp home mode". The transmission uses only third gear. It is not a good idea to drive in this mode for any lengith of time. A common potential fix is to check the electrical plug connection on the left (drivers) side of the transmission. The connector has several pins make sure this is connected securly for some this corrects the problem. If this does not correct the problem then have a Jaguar Dealer connect their diognostic machine to get the fault codes. Good luck. Mike
the tranny light comes on, because the idle speed or timing need to be adjusted.
what does it mean when the hi transmission tempture light come on in a 1999 jaguar xj8
Vaccum leak or transmission control problem comes to mind, need to diagnose.
The brakes?
No, this means there is a fault in the fuse box or your transmission needs to be replaced
Your transmission fluid might be low.
If an engine transmission light comes on in the dashboard there can be a potential problem with the drive-train. The engine's computer should receive a diagnostic to determine if there is anything wrong with the transmission.
Does it really matter if it is a fuse or relay the key word here is "Transmission failure light" take it in and have it checked out the computer they hook it to will tell them what the problem is. Hope This Helps.
This light warns that transmission oil temperature on an automatic transmission is too high. If the light is flashing it indicates that the transmission control system is not working properly.
get it code tested
When the check engine light comes on , a malfunction has been detected with the emission control system , if the light stays on steady have the Ranger scanned for any trouble codes to diagnose and then repair the problem ( also if the light flashes on and off continuously with the engine running that indicates a spark plug misfire , scan , diagnose and repair )
I had a similar problem on a 1993 Sovereign. I'd cover about 5 miles then the Check Engine light would come on and the car would drive like a bag of nails. Look at the temperature sensor; if it's sending the wrong information to the ECU then the ECU will set the wrong fuel mixture. Clean the contacts of the temperature sensor first and if that doesn't work then replace it. Should cost in the region of £10 to £20 from a Jag dealer. Instantly fixed the problem for me. Biggles
