Jaguar XJS 1993 - 1993 ENGINE PERFORMANCE Self-Diagnostics


Jaguar XJS 1993 - INTRODUCTION

If no faults were found while performing the basic diagnostic procedures in the BASIC TESTING article, proceed with self-diagnostics. If no fault codes are present after entering self-diagnostics, proceed to theTESTS W/O CODES article in this section for diagnosis by symptom (i.e., ROUGH IDLE, NO START, etc.).


Jaguar XJS 1993 - SELF-DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM CHECK ENGINE LIGHT


All models are equipped with a malfunction indicator (CHECK ENGINE) light. When the CHECK ENGINE light remains on, the self-diagnostic system has detected a system failure.


Jaguar XJS 1993 - HARD FAILURES


Hard failures cause CHECK ENGINE light to glow. Fault codes are stored in Electronic Control Module (ECM) memory. All codes except Codes 26 and 44 will cause CHECK ENGINE light to remain illuminated (with ignition on) until fault is corrected and ECM memory is cleared.

Codes 26 and 44 and the CHECK ENGINE light will remain on only until next ignition on/off cycle. Code will no longer be available to driver, but will still be stored in ECM memory.

If light comes on and remains on during vehicle operation, cause of malfunction must be determined using TROUBLE CODE IDENTIFICATION table. If a sensor fails, control unit will use a substitute value in its calculations to continue engine operation. In this condition, vehicle is functional but poor driveability may occur.


Jaguar XJS 1993 - RETRIEVING CODES


When a system fault has been detected, trouble codes can be retrieved. Vehicle must be stationary. With ignition switch in OFF position, wait 5 seconds and then turn ignition switch to position II. DO NOT start engine. On XJ6, press Vehicle Condition Monitor (VCM) button, located on VCM/trip computer display panel. VCM/trip computer display panel is located below tachometer and speedometer. On XJS, pressing VCM button is not required.

Applicable trouble code will be displayed on display panel. See appropriate code in TROUBLE CODE IDENTIFICATION table below for probable cause. When engine is started, trouble code will be deleted from written display, but the CHECK ENGINE light will remain on.

  2. Check that Engine Control Module (ECM) terminal No. 7 (Pink/Brown wire) is grounded while engine is cranking. If not grounded, replace ECM. If grounded, check for open wiring harness between ECM and fuel pump/oxygen sensor heater relay.
  3. With ignition on, check for 12 volts at pin No. 86 of fuel pump/oxygen sensor heater relay. If voltage is not present, check for an open circuit in White/Brown wire back to main relay. If voltage is present, check or replace faulty fuel pump/oxygen sensor heater relay.

Jaguar XJS 1993 - DTC 23: Fuel Control, Running Rich


  1. If EVAP canister purge control valve has an electrical signal, go to DTC 89. If no electrical signal is present, check fuel pressure at idle. Fuel pressure should be 36.3 psi (2.5 kg/cm2 ) with vacuum hose connected to fuel pressure regulator, or 43.5 (3.0 kg/cm2 ) with vacuum hose disconnected.
  2. If fuel pressure is incorrect, check fuel pressure return line for blockage. Check vacuum signal if fuel pressure is high with vacuum hose connected. If necessary, replace fuel pressure regulator.

  2. Ensure heated oxygen sensor is receiving 12 volts from fuel pump/oxygen sensor heater relay. Check heated oxygen sensor ground circuit. Ensure tip of heated oxygen sensor is not damaged. Repair or replace as necessary.

Jaguar XJS 1993 - DTC 46 & 47: Idle Air Control Valve


Check ECM main relay power input, ignition switch power input, and ECM battery power input circuits to ECM small signal ground circuit. See the PIN VOLTAGE CHART S article in this section. See below. Voltage input readings should be within 200 millivolts of each other. If necessary, repair wiring harness. Check for faulty ECM.

  2. If air injection pump does not operate continuously, ensure air pump works for a short period after each hot start or works for several minutes following a cold start. Check air injection pump relay output circuit at pump relay. See the appropriate PIN VOLTAGE CHART S article in this section. See below. If necessary, repair wiring harness or replace faulty air injection pump relay. Check for faulty ECM.

Jaguar XJS 1993 - DTC 68: Speed Sensor

If road speed is indicated, check wiring harness between ECM and instrument cluster. If necessary, repair wiring harness. Check for faulty ECM.


Jaguar XJS 1993 - DTC 69: Park/Neutral Position Switch


  1. With transmission In Park or Neutral, measure voltage at terminal No. 3 (Red/Blue wire) of PCM Yellow connector. Voltage should not be present. If 5 volts is present, reset gear selector switches and/or check decoder module. Clear codes and retest
  2. If 5 volts is not present, check for continuity between ground and terminal No. 3 (Red/Blue wire) of PCM Yellow connector. With transmission in Park or Neutral, continuity should exist (terminal No. 3 grounded). If continuity exists, replace PCM. If continuity does not exist, locate and repair open in Red/Blue wire.

Jaguar XJS 1993 - DTC 89: EVAP Canister Purge Control Valve


Check wiring harness and connectors for intermittent fault. Check EVAP canister purge control valve function. Valve is functional if "click" can be heard or if touch can detect it is functioning properly. Check for faulty ECM.
