I do have a reader but the last time I used it for some reason I wasn't able to get any live data. It was just throwing the codes for the o2 sensor. Before I parked the car it was a code for the camshaft.

I am going to try and get more data to see what exactly is going on. But my best shot right now is replacing the fuel pump. I believe it doesn't have enough psi.

I wish these engines had a port around the fuel rail to connect a pressure gauge to. That would be so useful.

I was never able to get fittings to attach a gauge for my fuel pressure , I had to tap a hole into the FPR on the upstream or fwd side as the FPR is installed to see my 43 PSI

I saw somewhere a T fitting to install after I had established mine and have a pic of it on a old broken computer

Something did change on your SLCM with a short time Hard Reset

What I was able to observe with mine is a long time over night reset solves some problems on security system

I was able to see live data with a program I downloaded as a torrent file about 30 cycles but then it required a license key with a purchase

So the free aspect of it went away and someday I will revisit

Try the Hard Reset overnight, can't hurt

The fuel level sender has a ground wire with a ground post by the tank area

Researching

The Black / White wire is a sensing voltage B +DC

The Black wire is a car frame ground at point along the outside of the battery area

The ground wire goes into a connector.between the sendor and car frame ground post

Seeing the RPM indication is a dash of victory.

Would anyone have an idea of what to look for as far as my alarm system goes?

After I started the car that first time I got the beeping back indicating it locked. Now it locks and unlocked, but I don't get the beep?

My need to reprogram the FOB to establish what may have been lost in the short hard reset

Ahh I have never used the fob. It doesn't work. I'm not sure the Vallet switch works. I just have the key.

After watching that video I definitely don't have the red light that used to be on my lock button. But it still locks and unlocks. Maybe a fuse?:

There are 2 basic versions of the security lock control module , one early version has a lot of external relays outside the box and a later version with no relays outside

VIN # ?

FOB frequency ? if you cn find it on the label on the FOB , not always there

There are 2 freqs 335 and 415 hz

Vin : SAJHX1745TC759440
The frequency on my fob says 315. Excuse the dirt and grime I've never opened the remote since I purchased this vehicle a year ago 🤢:

I imagine that's why it's never worked haha.

I'm going to see if I can get the correct frequency I need and get a proper remote.

They can be very expensive to source.

The junkyard sells them for 5 bucks to a person that sorts them out and resales them.

They will have a bucket of them, or you might find one still in the car as a new arrival.

Leave your name and number at a pick and pull or any savage yard that deals in Jaguars and they will give you a call , just don't sound too excited.
