The throttle potentiometer is not functioning properly. Unlike most parts this one is easy to get to, but unless you're a mechanic or know how to use a volt meter I would take it in for this problem.

How do you replace a headlight on a 1988 Jaguar Vanden Plas XJs 6 cylinder 4 door car?

Inside the the front wheel well. Just below the top of the front tire. You will find a a removeable plastic panel. That is held in place by a few pastic clips. Remove this cover and remove the bulb from the head light. By twisting the plastic ring about 60degrees or so to the left. Just in case you are not aware of the fact. Never touch the bulb with your bare hands. The oil from your hands will cause the bulb to fail. If you recently used the headlights. Let them cool off for at least 1/2 hour or so before you atempt to change them. You can receive serious burns from the bulbs if you dont. If you have the dual sealed beams like my Vanden Plas had, you have to unscrew the retainer screws from the front side and pull the bulb out the front. Pull the clip off the back and plug in new bulb, push bulb back in and retighten the retainer. If you have the square lights I would swap them out! I put the twin sealed beams from my Vanden Plas on my 90 Soveriegn after the Vanden Plas reached parts-car status. A little bit of work, but it looks so much classier!

What does a fuel 26 fail 26 mean on 1990 jaguar xj6 vanden plaus?

Your oxygen sensor is bad, or the connection may be corroded. Luckily this is a part you can replace yourself. It unscrews from the exhaust manifold and is a relatively easy fix. I would buy it online, not at a dealer. Good luck! Seems to contradict page 243 of 1990 Jaguar Factory Drivers Handbook , under Engine Diagnostics Checks: FAULT CODE 26 is described as "air leak" and FUNCTION descriptor states "Look for poor feedback control in lean direction". ??????
