I am going through the same thing right now on my 2000 S-type. I found that my car does it more often when it is humid or raining and the accelerator seems to affect the on and off of the light. I have alot of automotive experience myself and I hooked a scan tool to the car and it gave a throttle position percentage at 85 to 97 at an idle. On the 3.0, there are three output wires on the throttle position sensor and I monitored them and only one is not responding right. The check engine light is not on. It may be a ground or other wiring problem. I have not explored the problem further but I expect to have to replace the TPS. The Jaguar dealership here wants about $150.
