Where can you find a diagram of the firing order for a 2001 Jaguar s -Type 3.0?
i have the manual for the x type, it says firing order is 1,4,2,5,3,6 cylinder 1 is located (if you stand in front of car) lefthand side at the back, cylinders number 123 at back and 456 from left to right at front,, I had a bad misfire in a 2002 X Type 3.0 and the parts guy at Advanced read the OBC codes and said it was cylinder #2. I replaced the $35 distributorless ignition coil and the car now runs great. However, the above information was not true for this car. The Jaguar Electrical Manual on page 49 has the cylinder numbers located (if you stand in front of car) lefthand side at the back, cylinders number 135 at back and 246 from left to right at front.
Where is jaguar s type fuse box located?
Left, front, under the hood. There is also a fuse box located in the spare tire area located at the back of the car (trunk, by the battery).

How to Recharge Your Car's Air Conditioner
LOW REFRIGERANT
If your air conditioner is not cooling well because the system is low on refrigerant, recharging the system with refrigerant should restore normal operation. This can usually be done with a few cans of refrigerant and a simple service hose connection.
RECHARGING PRECAUTIONS
First, wear safety glasses to protect your eyes. Also avoid skin contact with refrigerant. The chilling effect of spilled refrigerant can cause instant frostbite on bare skin or eyes!
WHAT TYPE OF REFRIGERANT?
Next, you need to figure out what type of refrigerant your vehicle requires:
On 1995 and newer passenger cars and light trucks, the correct refrigerant is R134a. DO NOT use any other type of refrigerant.
On most 1994 and older passenger cars and light trucks, the original refrigerant was R12. R12 is no longer available to do-it-yourselfers and is very expensive. When older vehicles with R12 A/C systems need refrigerant, they can be refilled with recycled R12 from other older cars (this requires taking your car to a repair shop for professional service), or with some alternative refrigerant other than R12, or with R134a (which requires certain modifications).
CAUTION: Mixing different types of refrigerants is NOT recommended. Use the same type of refrigerant that is already in the system unless you are converting an older R12 system to R134a or another refrigerant.
WARNING: Flammable refrigerants are illegal. DO NOT use any type of flammable refrigerant (propane, butane or flammable hydrocarbons).
Click here for more information about retrofitting older vehicles with R12 A/C systems to R134a.
LOCATE THE SERVICE FITTINGS
Next, you need to locate the service fittings on the A/C system. There are two: a LOW side fitting and a HIGH side fitting. The LOW side fitting is usually located on the suction hose or line that goes from the accumulator to the compressor. The HIGH side fitting is located on the line that goes from the compressor to the condenser.
R12 Low Side 7/16 in. threaded ß----------à R134 Low Side 13mm Quick-disconnect
R12 High Side 3/8 in. threaded ß----------à R134A High Side 16mm Quick-disconnect
On older R12 systems, the LOW and HIGH pressure service fittings are screw-type Schrader valves. On newer R134a systems, the LOW and HIGH side service fittings are quick-connect style fittings. The LOW pressure fitting is SMALLER than the HIGH pressure fitting.
RECHARGE PROCEDURE
1. Connect the recharge service hose and valve to a can of refrigerant.
2. Turn the valve on the service hose to puncture the top of the can.
3. SLOWLY turn the valve back out to release a small amount of refrigerant into the hose. This will blow air out of the hose (which you do not want in your A/C system).
4. Close the valve so no more refrigerant escapes, then quickly connect the other end of the service hose to the LOW pressure service fitting on the A/C system.
CAUTION: DO NOT connect a can of refrigerant to the HIGH side service fitting. The operating pressure inside the A/C system when it is running may exceed the burst strength of the can, causing the can to explode! This should be impossible to do because the service hose for recharging the A/C system will only fit the smaller LOW pressure service fitting. Even so, you should be aware of the danger.
5. Hold the can UPRIGHT so no refrigerant liquid enters the service hose. You only want VAPOR to be pulled into the A/C system (the compressor may be damaged if it sucks in a big dose of liquid!).
6. OPTIONAL BUT HIGHLY RECOMMENDED: You should use a gauge to monitor the recharging process. Though not absolutely necessary, a gauge will help you recharge your A/C system more accurately, and reduce the chance of undercharging or overcharging (either of which will reduce cooling performance).
A high pressure A/C gauge can be connected to the HIGH pressure service fitting, or a low pressure A/C gauge to the LOW pressure service fitting, or gauges can be attached to both fittings (that is what professional technicians do).
NOTE: Some DIY recharging kits include a low pressure gauge on the service hose or on a trigger-grip style can dispenser.
7. Start the engine and turn the A/C on MAX/HIGH.
8. NOTE: The compressor may not engage if the system is too low on refrigerant. The low pressure cutout switch will prevent the compressor from running if the system is too low on refrigerant (this is done to protect the compressor from damage due to a lack of proper lubrication). The compressor must be running to suck refrigerant through the service hose into the system. So if it is not engaging when you turn the A/C on, you may have to supply battery voltage directly to the compressor clutch using a fused jumper wire. Look for a single wire connector near the front of the compressor, unplug it and hook up a jumper wire to the battery POSITIVE terminal. This should cause the clutch to engage and the compressor to run.
9. OPEN the valve on the service hose so refrigerant vapor will flow from the can into the A/C system. It may take up to 10 minutes or more per can to suck all of the refrigerant out of the can into the A/C system. Feel the air coming out of the ducts inside the vehicle. It should be getting colder.
10. If you are using a high or low pressure gauge (or both) to monitor recharging, look at the gauge(s).
LOW pressure gauge: When the reading is between 25 and 40 psi with the A/C running, STOP. The system is fully charged and should be cooling normally. DO NOT add any more refrigerant. If the gauge is over 50 psi, you have overcharged the system with too much refrigerant.
High pressure gauge: When the reading gets up around 200 to 225 psi (R12), or225 to 250 psi (R134a), STOP. The system is fully charged and should be cooling normally. DO NOT add any more refrigerant.
NOTE: The high and low pressure readings will vary depending on the system and ambient temperatures (higher temperatures cause higher system pressure readings).
Refer to the vehicle manufacturer specifications for normal system operating pressures, and the total refrigerant capacity of the system. Most newer passenger car A/C systems do not hold much refrigerant (only 14 to 28 oz.), so you don't want to add too much if the system is low. One can of R134a typically holds 12 oz. of refrigerant.
11. If the system needs more refrigerant after adding one can, you can add a second can. CLOSE the valve on the service hose, then disconnect the hose from the empty can, screw a new can onto the service hose valve, turn the valve to puncture the new can, then turn the valve all the way back out again so refrigerant can flow through the hose into the A/C system.
When you have finished, turn the engine off. CLOSE the valve on the can of refrigerant before disconnecting the service hose from the LOW pressure fitting (in case there is any refrigerant left in the can). Don't vent any leftover refrigerant from the can. Leave the service hose attached to the can with the valve closed so you can save the refrigerant for a future recharge.
Remember to replace the plastic caps over the service fittings, and remove the jumper wire from the compressor if you had to jump it to make it run.
IF THE A/C SYSTEM STOPS BLOWING COLD AIR AFTER A FEW DAYS, WEEKS OR MONTHS
If your A/C stops blowing cold air several days, weeks or months after you recharged it, it means the system has a leak and the refrigerant is escaping. You should add some leak detection dye to the system to find the leak. The leak should then be repaired before the system is recharged again; otherwise you are just wasting your time recharging the system over and over again.
No, you need a new gasket. About the only gaskets that may be reusable are valve cover gaskets some engines.
Where is the battery in the S type Jaguar?

How do you reset check engine light on 2003 jaguar?
Hi. This is dead easy and doesn't need the electronic gizmo a garage uses.
First, undo the earth terminal and the battery, then the live terminal at the battery - be careful not to drop nut or bolt as it is a devil to find them ;-).
Second, hold the live and earth terminals (the cables not battery terminals) together for 10 to 15 seconds
Third, reconnect terminals to the battery
This resets the onboard diagnostics computer (OBDC) and wipes any errors from the memory. In the process, it turns off the engine warning light.
Just one point to consider. Reseting the OBDC wipes out all error messages, so if you have had other problems that would be picked up by a garage doing maintenance, there will be no record until the ODBC has rerun its checks, which could be up to 1000 miles.
This tip was given to me by an ex-Jaguar senior technician and helped when my LPG conversion kept upsetting the car ECU.
How to check the gearbox oil level on 2000 jaguar s-type auto?
You must start with the engine/transmission cold. Locate the set screw in the middle of the drain on the bottom of the trans pan. Start and run the engine until the transmission is at F 100 degrees. Remove the set screw from the drain plug and if the level is correct, fluid will drip rapidly from the opening. If it does, put the screw back in immediately. The engine must be running while you do this. Generally, you should use a scanner to monitor the transmission oil temperature. It does not take long for the temperature to rise to this temperature and you only have about 10 minutes after it warms up to accomplish this task.
What is a LH indicator on a jaguar s-type?
Indicator is Brit Speak for turn signal. If you are receiving the message on the dashboard display, it will tell you if your what side (left or right) you are having the problem with.
What causes the heater in a 2000 jaguar s type not to heat up?
Most often this is an air trap in the heater core. It is surprising how often mechanics (even at dealerships) don't understand how to bleed the cooling system properly. This is best done with a cool engine. Remove the cap from the expansion tank, turn your heater all the way up with the fan running, start the engine and fill the expansion tank to the top. The bleed screw for the cooling system (for the V6) is directly beneath the induction pipe, between the throttle body and the air filter. There is a black plastic manifold with several radiator hoses running from it, the bleed screw is facing upward and requires a 90 deg turn anti-clockwise. Open the bleed screw and let some fluid escape, top up the expansion tank and give the engine a gentle rev (2000rpm) and hold it there a few seconds, top up the tank again. Repeat a couple of times and your car will be getting hot inside. Enjoy
