Good vid. Thanks for sharing . . . but . . .
. . . pls recognize that there is a well documented Jaguar release which we here at JF have shaped into a specific diagnostic tool for our unique vehicles - to be found as Quiescent Current Drain and listed in many of the model specific stickies FAQ or HOW TO . . . under that name.
Unique vehicles? How come? Well -
Again, thanks for sharing.
Cheers,

Unique vehicles? How come? Well -
- Jaguar lays down specific conditions, "sleep" times and thresholds for measuring QCD- a lot more than key out and close all doors;
- with battery in boot/trunk, you may need longer meter leads and close/lock the boot - pls don't lock yourself inside with a torch;
- the boot/trunk dust rubber will cushion the leads, but each new connection to a pulled fuse will need renewed patience until "sleep" time expires.
Again, thanks for sharing.
