Where does the starter signal come from on a Jaguar?
Time to shift from maintenance catch-up to trouble-shooting. The starter relies on a signal from the starter relay (on Series III cars, a silver relay on the firewall—-probably simlilar on others). The starter relay will have a white/red wire which leads to the starter solenoid on the starter motor.
Why is my starter not working on my Jaguar?
Some models may have a white/blue wire at the relay which by-passes the ignition ballast . It has no direct bearing on starter operation. 7) If all these voltage checks are OK then you likely have a faulty starter relay. You can opt to replace it or, if desired, disassemble it and clean the contacts.
What to do if your JAG starter wont crank?
It has no direct bearing on starter operation. 7) If all these voltage checks are OK then you likely have a faulty starter relay. You can opt to replace it or, if desired, disassemble it and clean the contacts. Many Jag owners have been sucessful in resurecting a dead relay with a good cleaning.
How to check your Jaguar engine will not crank?
Here’s how to check the circuit. Using the test light or multi meter, make the following voltage checks at the relay: brown wire at terminal C2 should have 12 volts at all times. If not, check for a wiring/connector fault between the relay and the right side firewall post.
