it is very common the fail safe mode light comes on a s type. go to the auto part store and get you some electronic spray cleaner and go under the steering wheel where the brake pedal is and unplug the connecter for the brake pedal switch. then spray cleaner on both ends of the connectors and dont worry the cleaner evaporates fast so then connect back together and that will solve your problem.

What does it mean when your 1999 xj8 jaguar goes into failsafe mode traction control failure?

When your 1999 XJ8 Jaguar goes into failsafe mode due to traction control failure, it indicates that the vehicle's traction control system has detected a malfunction and is limiting the engine power to prevent loss of traction. This mode is designed to help maintain control and stability, but it can reduce performance. It's advisable to check for error codes using an OBD-II scanner, and have the system inspected by a qualified technician to address the underlying issue.

What is engine failsafe mode in a mustang?

I am not sure of the cause, but the Failsafe Engine Mode has been a recurring problem in my 2005 Mustang for about two years and over 40000 miles now. At first it occurred intermittently but then developed into a frequent occurrence. The check engine light may or may come on at the same time. When going into Failsafe Engine Mode, th 'Failsafe Engine Mode' wording appears on the dash where the odometer is. Upon taking it to the shop when the problem first started to frequently occur, the fault code indicated the Throttle Position Sensor (TPS) so I had that replaced but the problem immediately reappeared. Reprogramming ('reflashing') the computer helped for a number of months but then the problem appeared again, at first intermittently but again developing more frequently. When Failsafe Engine Mode occurs, the engine loses much of its power - I am not sure if it is true but I have read this is due to deactivation of some of the cylinders. My vehicle is a 6 cylinder. I do appear to get slightly better gas mileage while in Failsafe Engine Mode according to the on board computer (you can not access any information on the odometer / information display while in Failsafe Engine Mode but turning the engine off and restarting the car will reset the computer and it is at that time that I have frequently noticed my gas mileage has increased, thus perhaps it is true that some cylinder deactivation occurs while in this mode). I hope I can find a fix soon - I am at this time getting ready to take the vehicle back to the shop for another try at fixing it. I am writing this response while not signed in but if you would like a photo of the Failsafe Engine Mode displayed on the dash you can e-mail me at topojijo302@yahoo.com. Craig


What is failsafe engine mode?

Failsafe engine mode is a protective feature in aircraft engines that allows the engine to operate at a reduced power level in the event of a malfunction or failure. This mode helps maintain control of the aircraft and ensures a safe landing by providing limited thrust, allowing pilots to manage the situation until they can land safely. It is designed to prevent complete engine failure and enhance overall flight safety.
