Inspection and Verification

  1. Verify the customer concern.
  2. Visually inspect for obvious signs of electrical damage. Visual inspection table Electrical Fuses (100 Amp midifuse and fuse 38 of the front power distribution box) Glow plug control module (GPCM) Engine management control relay Wiring harness(es) Electrical connector(s) Glow plug(s) Engine control module (ECM)
  3. If an obvious cause for an observed or reported concern is found, correct the cause (if possible) and test the system for normal operation before proceeding to the next step.
  4. If the cause is not visually evident use the Jaguar approved diagnostic system or a scan tool to retrieve any fault codes before proceeding to the diagnostic trouble code (DTC) index.

Symptom chart

SymptomPossible causeAction
Poor starting (extreme weather conditions)Glow plugs inoperative/inefficient Fuel temperature too lowCheck the glow plug harnesses at the glow plugs and at the connection to the main harness. For additional information, See appropriate SYSTEM WIRING DIAGRAMS article. Check for DTCs indicating a control module or circuit fault. The fuel system recycles fuel until operating temperature is reached to reduce this possibility.
High cold-engine emissionsAfter-glow phase inoperativeCheck the glow plug harnesses at the glow plugs and at the connection to the main harness. For additional information, See appropriate SYSTEM WIRING DIAGRAMS article. Check for DTCs indicating a control module or circuit fault. After-glow is designed to function at engine temperatures below 50° C (122° F), and below 2500 RPM.
High cold-engine noise, vibration or harshnessAfter-glow phase inoperativeCheck the glow plug harnesses at the glow plugs and at the connection to the main harness. For additional information, See appropriate SYSTEM WIRING DIAGRAMS article. Check for DTCs indicating a control module or circuit fault. After-glow is designed to function at engine temperatures below 50° C (122° F), and below 2500 RPM.
