Hello, I am a new member from Appleton, WI...I have a 2001 XJ8 with about 40k miles on it...I love the car, however, have been told I have a short in the instrument gauge cluster and need to replace or repair it....is it possible to repair (I see a repair shop in Mesa, AZ that offers to repair rather than replace)? How should I proceed here and will it need to be reprogrammed when the repaired unit is returned? Thanks, John

Welcome to the forum John,

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.

The Instrument Pack is a programmable module so repair is a simpler and lower cost option than replacement.

I can see you've already found your way to the X308 forum so there's no need for a link to it from me.
The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for information on regular issues.

Please remember to add vehicle details to your Signature to help others to give relevant advice. Go to the User CP button on the left of the top menu bar, then Settings & Options under Your Control Panel. Select Edit Signature and enter the details.

You can also visit the US Midwest Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/us-midwest-39/
to find other members in your region.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham
