AUTOMATIC JAGUAR X308 1998 2.G User Guide

A c
ontrol orifice in the pump rod determines the levelling height. When the damper is compressed, this orifice is covered.
When the damper extends, the control orif ice is uncovered, pressure is released to the low pressure oil reservoir and the
system ceases to rise. When the vehicle is high after unloading, the opened control or ifice allows fluid to be returned to the
low pressure oil reservoir, and the suspensi on returns to its normal unladen height.

NOTE: Items 2 and 5 are ALWAYS located
on the passenger side of the vehicle
Adaptive damping enhances vehicle handli ng by the use of special dampers which are controlled by a dedicated control
module.
Adaptive damping may be specified as an option on certai n models. Adaptive damping and ride levelling are mutually
exclusive options. The adaptive damping system is completely automatic, requiring no input from the driver.
A d
aptive Dampers
The adaptiv
e dampers:
Are inst

alled in place of the normal dampers.
Can be identified

by the cable and connector at the top of the unit.
Have two settings; fi

start, the key must be returned to position 'I' befo re another start is attempted.
Lighting Switch

The li

Direction Indicators

The direction in

Operate
when the ignition switch is in position II.
Are operat

dicate a right or left turn
respectively.
Can be o p

spring pressure before reaching the latch position.
Cancel
automatically upon completion of a turn, the
column switch returning to the center position.

If the ignition is switched to the OFF position with the column switch in the headlamp position, the sidelamps, tail and
license plate lamps will stay ON, but the headlamps will switch OFF.
In the AUTO position (where fitted), with the ignition switch in position II:
Th

mirror monitors exterior light levels and automatically
switches the sidelamps and di pped headlamps ON and OFF.
The sensitivity level can be adjusted by turn ing the sensor control knob on the back of the interior mirror, left to decrease or
right to increase. The sensor must not be covered and the windscreen must be kept clean.

En
gine Management and Emission Control System
Engine Control Modu
le (ECM)
Engine
management and exhaust emissions are controlled by the ECM, which has the
following main functions:
Fu
el injection
Idle
s
peed
Ignition Ev

aporative loss system
Engine
cooling fans Clim
ate control compressor clutch demand
The microprocessor within the ECM receiv es signals from various sensors and other modules and uses a pre-determined
program to compute engine management functions.
Adaptive functions are incorporated in the ECM to cater for co ntinuous adjustments to its computations to suit prevailing
conditions. Because the system also controls emissions to suit all modes, neither CO levels nor idle speed require service
attention or adjustment, except if an error should occur.
On Board Diagnostics are controlled by the ECM with the continuous monitoring of incoming signals and the subsequent
verification against what the module expects to 'see'. Should a si gnal be incorrect or missing, the ECM will substitute a fixed
value to provide the 'limp home mode' and alert the driver of the problem. Fixed values may be adopted for:
Transmission oil
temperature
Mechanica
l
guar
d position
Throttle blade angle Camshaft position

Inta
k
e air temperature
Diagnostic trouble codes (DTC), including OBD II codes, are stored in the ECM memo ry and can be read by an appropriate
retrieval tool.
Should either the ECM or TCM fa il, ensure that the control housing cooling fan is operating correctly. Failure of the cooling
fan MUST be rectified before renewing a control module and details of a fa n failure should accompany a returned control
module.
