Door Windows System Operation

All windows can be operated individually, or by the driver’s window control switch. The operation of the windows is proportional
to the switch activation. All windows can be controlled by ‘one touch’ in an upward or downward direction. When the ‘one
touch’ operation is activated in the upwards direction ‘pinch protection‘ is enabled. If a pinch condition is detected the window
will automatically stop and travel downwards to a pre-determined position.

When the rear window ‘one touch’ operation is activated in the downward direction, the window will drop a limited way down.
This is the comfort setting to achieve optimum noise levels when vehicle is in motion with rear windows open. Further ‘one
touch’ operation will drop the window all the way down. (Only applies to vehicles post VIN R99740) The ‘one touch’ operation
to activate the upward direction will fully close the window.

Electric window operation is enabled while the ignition is in power mode 4 and 6. When the switches in the driver's door are
used to operate the passenger windows, the driver's door module outputs a related message on the LIN (local interconnect
network) bus and medium speed CAN (controller area network) bus. The passenger door module responds to the message by
operating the appropriate window. When the child lock is engaged, the rear door modules ignore inputs from the rear window
switches.
End of travel shut off

End of travel shut-off for the window motors is determined by monitoring the current draw of the motors. Each time it switches
on a window motor, the door module measures the window motor current for a preset time. The maximum value measured
within that time is stored as the switch-on current. When the window motor current next exceeds the switch-on current, the
door module assumes the window has reached the end of its travel and switches off the power supply to the window motor
even if a window switch is still being activated.
Anti-trap

The anti-trap function is enabled for window closing in both the inching and one-shot modes. If the anti-trap feature is
activated while a window is closing, the window motor is reversed for a preset period.

A Hall sensor, located in the window regulator motor, monitors the speed of the motor and if the speed decreases below a set
threshold, indicating an obstruction, the power feed to the motor is reversed so the window goes back down for preset time.
In an emergency the anti-trap function can be overridden by holding the window switch in the one-shot closed position.

After the battery has been disconnected it is necessary to initialize the door window motors to be able to operate the one-shot
up function.


Windshield Component Description

The windshield, manufactured from 5mm laminated green-tinted glass is positioned to the vehicle's body by two locator pins,
one in each top corner of the windshield. This allows for centralizing movement of the windshield across the car upon fitment.
The base of the windshield carries a leaf-screen retainer. The windshield is bonded and sealed to the vehicle body aperture
using Polyurethane (PU) adhesive. The windshield finisher is a three-sided extruded flip, taped onto the inner surface of the
glass; this helps to centralize the glass in the aperture.
Two variants of windshield are available:
standard, and
heated.
Refer to: Control Components (412-01 Climate Control, Description and Operation).
Interior Mirror and Rain Sensor

The interior mirror and rain sensor mounting positions are located at the top of the windshield.
Refer to: Wipers and Washers (501-16 Wipers and Washers, Description and Operation).

unlocking of the door and luggage compartment latches. A radio frequency Smart Key allows the vehicle to be locked and
unlocked by pressing the appropriate handset buttons. Two levels of central locking system are available: remote central
locking and an optional passive entry system.

The passive entry and associated passive start system allows the driver to unlock and start the vehicle without using a vehicle
key in a door-lock or ignition switch. The passive entry system is an optional fitment while the passive start system is a
standard fitment on all vehicles. The passive start system is combined with the passive anti-theft immobilization system.
Refer to: Anti-Theft - Passive (419-01B Anti-Theft - Passive, Description and Operation).
Emergency access to the vehicle is provided by two concealed key barrels: one located in the front left-hand door handle and
one located on the underside of the luggage compartment lid finisher. An emergency, removable key blade is fitted into the
Smart Key.

Operation of either key barrel unlocks the vehicle but does not disarm the alarm system. The key barrels in the door and
luggage compartment lid are concealed by a plastic cover which can be removed by inserting the blade of the emergency key
into a slot in the cover.
Locking and unlocking conditions using the emergency key in the door key barrel:
If the alarm is not armed the vehicle can be centrally unlocked.
If the alarm is armed the door only can be opened and the alarm will be triggered.
The vehicle cannot be double locked or the alarm system armed using the emergency key.

The vehicle can be centrally locked and unlocked from inside using the interior handle release levers on the front doors only.
Central locking and unlocking can also be performed using lock and unlock buttons on the vehicle's fascia. The driver can select
locking options, single point entry or drive away locking for example, from a menu available on the touch screen.

Central Locking – Radio Frequency Remote System

The radio frequency central locking system, provides locking and unlocking of the vehicle from inside and outside of the
vehicle. The system is operated using buttons on the Smart Key, which transmits radio frequency signals to the central locking
radio frequency receiver.

The system provides additional security by double-locking the doors from outside the vehicle if the lock button, on the Smart
Key, is pressed twice within 3 seconds; this function is not applicable in North American Specification (NAS) and Japanese
markets.

Additional buttons on the Smart Key provide for the convenience operation of the luggage compartment lid release, headlamp
delay and panic alarm functions. A global open or close feature is also available in certain markets using the lock/unlock
buttons.

Passive Entry

On vehicles fitted with the optional passive entry system, the vehicle can be unlocked without the use of a key blade or
pressing buttons on the Smart Key. The Smart Key operates the passive entry system in addition to the passive start system.
Refer to: Anti-Theft - Passive (419-01B Anti-Theft - Passive, Description and Operation).
The passive entry system is controlled by the keyless vehicle module and five low frequency antennas. One antenna located in
each door handle and one antenna located behind the rear bumper cover.

When a vehicle door handle is pulled to the first five-percent of its travel and the Smart Key is within one meter of the handle;
the Smart Key receives the low-frequency signal transmitted from the keyless vehicle module. The Smart Key responds with a
radio frequency transmission of its authorization code. The radio frequency signal is received by the central locking radio-

Wipers and Washers - Wipers and Washers - Overview
Description and Operation

OVERVIEW Published: 11-May-2011

The wipers and washers comprise a windshield wiper system with a conventional wiper linkage and 2 wiper blades and a
windshield washer with jets located on the wiper arms. A headlamp powerwash is available on certain models.
The front wipers have 4 operational states:
Flick wipe
Auto
Slow wipe
Fast wipe.

Operation of the windshield wipers and washers and the headlamp powerwash is controlled by the CJB (central junction box) in
response to driver inputs and signals from the rain/light sensor. The instrument cluster monitors the condition of the
wiper/washer control switch and transmits driver requests to the CJB over the medium speed CAN (controller area network) bus.

The 'Auto' function requires an input from the rain sensor. The rain sensor is mounted on the inner surface of the windshield
and transmits an infra-red signal to determine the amount of water on the outer surface of the windshield. A value is then
transmitted to the CJB over the LIN (local interconnect network) bus.

WINDSHIELD WIPERS System Operation

Operation of the wipers and washers is controlled by the CJB in response to driver inputs from the wiper control switch and signals from the rain/light sensor. The instrument cluster monitors the condition of the wiper/washer control switch and
transmits driver requests to the CJB over the medium speed CAN bus.
The wiper control switch is connected via hardwired connections to the instrument cluster. The instrument cluster outputs on 4
wires a reference voltage to the wash/wipe switch, the auto wiper switch, the wiper switch and the flick wipe switch. All the
switches are connected to the instrument cluster on a common ground. Each switch function is connected to ground via a
resistor or series of resistors and the instrument cluster monitors the ground signal and determines which function has been
selected. The instrument cluster then outputs the appropriate message on the medium speed CAN bus to the CJB which responds to the requested wiper function. The CJB then activates the appropriate function either directly or via relays in the EJB for the wipers and headlamp powerwashers. Speed Dependent Mode

When the wipers are operating, a vehicle speed signal received by the CJB on the high speed CAN bus is used to operate a speed dependent mode. If the wipers are in fast wipe and the vehicle speed decreases to below 2 km/h (1.2 mph), the wipers
will reduce to the normal wipe speed. When the vehicle speed increases to above 8 km/h (5 mph) the fast wiper speed
selection is restored. If slow speed is selected and the vehicle speed drops below 2km/h (1.2 mph), the wipers will operate in
the intermittent mode. When the vehicle speed increases to above 8 km/h (5 mph) the slow wiper speed selection is restored
– this feature is configurable by the dealer using the approved Jaguar diagnostic system.
Wiper Motor

The wiper motor is controlled by the CJB. The CJB is connected to a wiper motor normal/fast relay in the EJB on 2 wires. The CJB is also connected to a wiper run/park relay, also located in the EJB.
Driver requests are received by the CJB which energizes the wiper motor normal/fast relay in the appropriate mode (normal or fast wipe) and also energizes the run/park relay in the run mode by providing a ground for the relay coils. When wiper
operation is deselected by the driver, the CJB monitors a park switch which is integral with the wiper motor. On receipt of a signal from the park switch, the CJB de-energises the run/park relay, removing the power supply through the normal/fast relay, stopping the wipers in the park position on the windshield.

The wiper motor is a DC (direct current) motor which drives a gear wheel via a worm drive attached to the motor spindle. The
motor has 3 sets of brushes with one brush connected to ground. When the normal/fast relay is energized in the normal
position, a power feed is supplied to the brush directly opposite the ground brush and operates the motor at slow speed.
When the relay is energized in the fast position, a power feed is connected to the second motor brush, which is offset from the
ground brush and operates the motor at the fast speed. With power supplied through the offset brush, the current flows
through fewer motor coil windings. This results in a lower resistance to current flow to the ground brush and produces a higher
motor rotational speed.

WINDSHIELD WASHERS

The windshield washers are controlled by the CJB. A driver request for washer operation, via the wiper control switch, is passed to the instrument cluster on the LIN bus. The instrument cluster passes the message to the CJB on the medium speed CAN bus.

The CJB energizes the windshield washer pump during the up stroke of the first 2 wash/wipe cycles. This ensures that wiper fluid is pushed to the sides of the windshield and eliminates the trail of fluid which can occur if the fluid is pushed to the
bottom of the windshield. The wipers will continue for 3 more cycles, followed after a delay of 4 seconds, by a single dry wipe.


NOTE: The dry wipe feature is configurable using an approved Jaguar diagnostic system.

The operation of the washer pump on the wiper up stroke only is configurable using an approved Jaguar diagnostic system.

The washer button can be pressed and held and the wipers will operate continuously for up to 10 seconds. After this period
when the button is released, the wipers will continue for 3 more cycles, followed after a delay, by a single dry wipe. After this
period washing will be inhibited, the wipers will continue for 3 more cycles, followed after a delay, by a single dry wipe.
Reactivating the switch will recommence the wash/wipe cycle.

RESERVOIR LEVEL SWITCH

The level switch is connected directly to the CJB. The switch is operated by a float which closes contacts within the switch when the fluid level falls to below the switch level. When the contacts are closed a ground path is completed from the CJB through the switch. This is sensed by the CJB which issues a message to the instrument cluster which displays a low fluid level warning.

and is connected at the opposite end to the LH pivot housing via a crank. The LH pivot housing crank is fitted with a second link rod which is connected directly to the crank on the RH pivot housing.
The motor crank converts rotary motion from the motor output shaft into linear movement of the link rods. The cranks
connected to each pivot housing, convert the linear motion of the link rods back to rotary motion of the pivot housings. This
rotary motion is passed to the wiper arms and blades causing the blades to wipe an arc across the windshield.

Each wiper arm is located on a taper spline on the respective pivot housing. A nut is screwed on the end of the pivot housing
shaft and positively secures the wiper arm on the taper spline.

The wiper blades are attached to the wiper arms with a quick release fittings. The blades are of the flat blade type. These
blades have an integral spring along their full length which curves the blade to match the windshield and provides even blade
to windshield contact pressure along the entire length of the blade.

WASHER RESERVOIR


NOTE: Type 'B' washer reservoir shown

Roof opening panel System Operation

Operation of the roof opening panel is controlled by the roof opening panel control module, which is integral with the motor.
The control module receives inputs from the CJB, which provides an 'open' or 'close' signal for remote handset operation, and
an 'enable' signal when the vehicle enters power mode 6.

The control module also receives a vehicle speed signal from the ABS module. The vehicle speed signal is used by the control
module to calibrate the anti-trap feature.

If the battery is disconnected, or the power supply is interrupted while the roof opening panel is in a partially open position,
the motor and control module will need to be calibrated to restore full functionality. To recalibrate:
1. Switch ignition on.
2. Press the front of the switch, so the roof opening panel is the tilt position, and then release the switch.
3. Press the front of the switch and hold for thirty seconds.
4. After thirty seconds the roof opening panel will begin to move. Keep the front of the switch pressed until the roof
opening panel has fully opened and then closed.
5. Once the open/close cycle has completed and the roof opening panel has stopped moving, release the switch.
6. The roof opening panel can now be operated as normal.

Drain hoses are connected to the front and rear corners of the roof opening panel frame. The drain hoses are located inside of
the cabin on the 'A' and 'D' post pillars to allow water, which has collected in the frame, to escape. One-way valves fitted to
the end of each drain hose, prevent the ingress of dirt and moisture.

Rear window sunblind

The powered rear window sunblind is operated through a switch in the roof console. Power to the sunblind motor is provided by
a pair of relays located in the CJB when the vehicle enters power mode 4. The sunblind motor is located beneath the rear parcel
shelf and is supplied as a sealed unit with the sunblind mechanism.

If the battery is disconnected or a replacement sunblind is fitted, the motor will require re-calibrating. To re-calibrate the
motor the sunblind should be powered through two-full cycles of movement.



Roof opening panel, motor Component Description

The roof opening panel motor has a worm drive which drives a gear in the cast housing attached to the end of the motor. The
gear has a small pinion gear attached to the outer part of its spindle. The pinion engages with two cables to form a rack and
pinion drive. Rotation of the motor turns the pinion which in turn drives the cables in the required direction.

The two cables are attached either side of the pinion. One end of each cable is attached to the guide; the opposite end of
each cable is held in position on the pinion by a metal insert in the frame. The cables run in channels, in the panel frame to
the guides. As the panel is closed the cables are pushed through channels in the front of the frame. The displaced cable is
guided into a further two channels in the frame, which protect the cable and prevent it from snagging. The cables
manufactured from rigid spring steel can pull as well as push the panel along the guides.

The motor contains a micro-switch and Hall effect sensor. Signals received from these components enable the control module
to calculate the exact position of the roof opening panel. The Hall effect sensor is also responsible for the operation of the
anti-trap function.

If the anti-trap feature is activated while the roof opening panel is closing, the panel is reversed for 200mm or as far as
possible. The Hall effect sensor, located in the motor, monitors the speed of the motor and if the speed decreases below a set
threshold, indicating an obstruction, the power feed to the motor is reversed so the panel goes back. In an emergency the
anti-trap function can be overridden by holding the switch in the closed position.

Roof opening panel, control module

The roof opening panel control module is integrated within the motor. The control module receives inputs from the CJB, which
provides an 'open' or 'close' signal for remote handset operation, and an 'enable' signal when the vehicle enters power mode 6.

The control module also contains the algorithm for the anti-trap system and receives a vehicle speed signal from the ABS
module. The vehicle speed signal is used by the control module to calibrate the anti-trap feature.

System Operation System Operation

In a collision, the sudden deceleration or acceleration is measured by the impact sensors and the accelerometers in the
restraints control module. The restraints control module evaluates the readings to determine the impact point on the vehicle
and whether the deceleration/acceleration readings exceed the limits for firing any of the airbags, pretensioners, and battery
disconnect unit. During a collision, the restraints control module only fires the airbags and pretensioners if the safing function
confirms that the data from the impact sensor(s) indicates an impact limit has been exceeded.
The RCM incorporates the following impact thresholds to cater for different accident scenarios: Front impact, pretensioners
Front impact, driver and passenger airbags stage 1, belt unfastened
Front impact, driver and passenger airbags stage 1, belt fastened
Front impact, driver and passenger airbags stage 2, belt unfastened
Front impact, driver and passenger airbags stage 2, belt fastened
Rear impact
Driver side impact
Passenger side impact.

The front impact thresholds increase in severity from pretensioners to driver and passenger airbag stage 2, belt fastened (refer
to list above).

Firing Strategies

The safety belt pretensioners are fired when the pretensioner impact limit is exceeded. The RCM only fires the pretensioners if the related safety belt is fastened.

The driver and passenger airbags are only fired in a frontal impact. If an impact exceeds a stage 1 limit, but is less than the
corresponding stage 2 limit, only one inflator in each airbag is fired (stage 2 is still fired for disposal after a delay of 100ms).
If an impact exceeds the stage 2 limit, the two inflators in each airbag are fired simultaneously.

The passenger airbag is disabled unless the front passenger seat is occupied by a large person (NAS only), or the passenger
airbag deactivation switch is on (all except NAS & AUS).

The stage 2 inflator of the driver airbag is disabled if the driver seat is forward of the switching point of the seat position
sensor.

If there is a fault with a safety belt buckle sensor, the RCM assumes the related safety belt is fastened for the pretensioner firing strategy and unfastened for the driver and passenger airbag firing strategies. If there is a fault with the occupant
classification sensor, the RCM disables the passenger airbag. If there is a fault with the passenger airbag deactivation switch, the RCM disables the passenger airbag.
If a side impact limit is exceeded, the RCM fires the side airbag and the side head airbag on that side of the vehicle. If the side impact limit on the front passenger side of the vehicle is exceeded, the RCM also evaluates the input from the occupant classification sensor, and fires the side airbag only if the front passenger seat is occupied by a large person (NAS only).

If multiple impacts occur during a crash event, after responding to the primary impact the RCM will output the appropriate fire signals in response to any further impacts if unfired units are available.

Front and Rear Impact Firing Strategy (All Except NAS)
Safety Belt Status Strategy Driver Passenger Applicable Pretensioner Driver airbag Passenger airbag Fastened - Fired at pretensioner threshold Fired at belt fastened threshold - Unfastened - Not fired Fired at belt unfastened threshold - - Fastened Fired at pretensioner threshold - Fired at belt fastened threshold - Unfastened Not fired - Fired at belt unfastened threshold www.JagDocs.com

and the safety belt buckle sensor. Based on this data, the RCM decides which level of airbag module deployment is required and forwards the information to the second area, the deployment handler.

The deployment handler evaluates the status of the seat track position sensor and safety belt buckle sensors before a decision
is made about which restraints should finally be deployed.

Data from the side crash sensors is used by the RCM in conjunction with acceleration data from the RCM internal accelerometer to make a deployment decision. The RCM processes the acceleration data and subject to an impact being of high enough severity, decides whether the side airbag module should be deployed.

On board testing of the airbag modules, front safety belt pretensioner firing circuits, warning indicator circuits and module
status (the crash and side impact sensors perform basic self-tests) is performed by the RCM together with the storing of fault codes.

The RCM drives the SRS indicator on the instrument pack via a CAN signal. If the warning lamp fails, a fault code is recorded and a warning tone is sounded in place of the lamp if a further fault occurs. It also provides a temporary back-up power supply
to operate the airbag modules in the event that in crash conditions, the battery supply is lost. In the event of a crash, it
records certain data which can be accessed via the diagnostic connector.

A safing sensor in the RCM provides confirmation of an impact to verify if airbag and pretensioner activation is necessary. A roll-over sensor monitors the lateral attitude of the vehicle. Various firing strategies are employed by the RCM to ensure that during an accident only the appropriate airbags and pretensioners are fired. The firing strategy used also depends on the
inputs from the safety belt switches and the occupant monitoring system.

An energy reserve in the RCM ensures there is always a minimum of 150 milliseconds of stored energy available if the power supply from the ignition switch is disrupted during a crash. The stored energy is sufficient to produce firing signals for the
driver airbag, the passenger airbag and the safety belt pretensioners.

When the ignition is switched on, the RCM performs a self-test and then performs cyclical monitoring of the system. If a fault is detected the RCM stores a related fault code and illuminates the airbag warning indicator. The faults can be retrieved by the recommended Jaguar diagnostic tool over the CAN bus. If a fault that could cause a false fire signal is detected, the RCM disables the respective firing circuit, and keeps it disabled during a crash event.

Clock Spring



The clockspring is installed on the steering column to provide the electrical interface between the fixed wiring harness of the
steering column and the components that rotate with the steering wheel, i.e. the driver airbag, the horn and the steering
wheel switch packs.

The clockspring consists of a plastic cassette which incorporates an outer cover fixed to the steering column and an inner rotor
which turns with the steering wheel. Four securing lugs attach the cover to the multifunction switch on the steering column.
The rotor is keyed to the steering wheel by a drive peg. A lug on the underside of the rotor operates the self-cancelling feature
of the turn signal indicator switch. A ribbon lead, threaded on rollers in the rotor, links two connectors on the cover to two
connectors on the rotor. Link leads for the driver airbag are installed in one of the connectors on the rotor.

To prevent damage to the ribbon lead, both the steering and the clockspring must be centralized when removing and installing
the clockspring or the steering wheel. The clockspring is centralized when the drive peg is at six o'clock and 50 - 100% of a
yellow wheel is visible in the viewing window.

Replacement clocksprings are fitted with a stopper, which locks the cover to the rotor, in the central position. The stopper must
be broken off when the replacement clockspring is installed.

occupant position and the crash severity. To reduce the risk of an airbag module induced injury to a driver that is positioned
close to the steering wheel, the airbag module deploys radially. It has a non-azide propellant that reduces particulates and
effluents. It consists of a two stage inflator with separate chambers for the two inflation stages, each being independently
activated by the RCM. It has two electrical connectors that are color coded and mechanically keyed to the respective connector on the inflator.

Passenger Airbag Module



The passenger airbag module is controlled by the RCM which chooses between single or dual stage deployment, depending on the occupant status and the crash severity. It consists of a two stage inflator with two airbag electrical connectors to
accommodate the two stage inflation.

The heated gas inflator consists of a high-pressure mix of clean air and hydrogen gas, triggered by two separate ignition
squibs. It produces a controlled generation of clean gas to rapidly fill the airbag. It is classified as a stored flammable gas
(not as an explosive) and as such, has less restrictive storage and transportation requirements. It produces a very clean burn
and almost no particulates and is almost free of any toxins, making disposal or recycling much easier. Drivers Airbag Module
