Your 1988 jaguar xjs kills batteries why?
I had a similar problem. The trunk latch on the way out, the micro switch wasn't closing and the trunk light was staying on. The design of the trunk latch is pony (plastic hook) - hence the "do not slam" warning tag. This may not be you problem but it's a good place to start.

How do you open the trunk of a 1965 Jaguar XKE roadster?
There is a handle behind the passenger seat. It operates a cable that connects to the trunk latch. Make sure it is not locked and pull it out. The trunk should open. If it won't pull out it is probably locked and will have to be unlocked first. Hope this helps.

Why would the trunk latch not work sometimes and work others trunk will not latch should you try adjusting the latch or the hook of the latch?
I would say that if you are having this problem most likely the latch has been slightly bent in or out, or the vehicle has been wrecked in the past. Also, the alignment of the trunk could be off. (wrecked) But a trunk latch can get damaged from slamming it over and over. Also, if it is a used car, you never know what has been done to the vehicle. Maybe someone locked their keys in the trunk and broke the latch in the past. Or, maybe someone broke into the car when it was previously owned and the latch has been replaced. You never know. People do strange things.
