2001 Jaguar S-Type: location of fuel inertia switch. Fuel pumps and fuses associated with diagnosis. The steps on the video describes steps to diagnose and repair the vehicle.
I first tested with starting fluid and fogging oil before/after “Throttle Body” clean. The car started after I’d sprayed the fluids inside the throat of the Throttle Body, but it didn’t stay running.
There’s a fuel pump sending-unit (left passenger’s side) and a pump-receiving unit (right driver’s side). I only replaced the electric pump (passenger’s side) and not the entire assembly, which is more expensive.
After the replacement of the electric fuel pump (not the assembly), the car started. Last, I also replace the fuel pump relay (located in back of the trump (left passenger’s side), to be on the safe side.
Last, checking the fuel pressure sensor could also help.
I am not a licensed mechanic but, I try to be as specific as possible as a DIY garage mechanic.
Thanks so much, I just bought mine. It starts and stops. I have checked the fuel pump relay, shot off , and related fuses all Ok. I will change the fuel pump. Thanks again. I will let you know what happens
Great video. Which of the 2 units has the fuel pump? Passenger side or driver?
Thanks!
Having same problem with my car. Great video it helped me a lot. Thx.
You said "the sending unit is right here" Where? You said "the diode switch is right here" Where? Fuse 15 in the luggage compartment on mine is a 5 amp alternator fuse.
Hey how do you pop the inertia switch? I was able to locate it but I don’t see the switch
Mechanical Terminology update: I'd stayed "carburetor in this video, but the part is actually the "Throttle Body."
When purchasing parts, shop around; aftermarket parts are just as good, if not better. I make that statement because, if there's a flaw in the design, it can be reengineered better. Don't be too cheap on parts because something's are just made too cheap to reduce the cost of manufacturing production.
Thanks again!
I have 1999 S-Type, same problem/no fuel pressure. Replaced the relay but didnt help. Will try repeating what you did , hopefully will help..
Did you fix it,I have same problem. Thank you
"The car started after I'd sprayed the fluids inside the carburetor. "
