Thanks, I'll check the starter solenoid output terminal post.
In the video I linked earlier, I was using the old.battery with a jump pack, which could explain the low voltage drop. I put in a brand new fresh battery that I measured at the RH fuse box with a multimeter, and it does maintain over 11.5 when cranking, which the gauge also shows. Tach still doesn't move more than 0 or maybe a hair over 0, so I'm thinking it's probably just the CPS is dead.

Are you using a large A8 sized battery ?

Yes on the CKPS even though you have no code , common to not get the 335 code on the X300

I'm out for the night and have rescheduled the Doctor visit for tomorrow

Thanks for the help, much appreciated. Not using an A8 battery, but an even larger one from one of my trucks, so the CCA's and capacity shouldn't be an issue. I'm gonna do some more investigative work tomorrow, but just from what I'm seeing and have seen from other threads on the x300 forum, the CKPS looks the be the cause of my issues.

Pulled the crank sensor out, it's reading as an open circuit on both of my multimeters. So I think I found my issue! Or at least one of them. I'll update when a new sensor arrives and see if there any other issues

The crank sensor will read 1300 ohms as a " fundamental " meter reading

The actual reading is more complicated

Yeah, I saw the sensor info over on Jag-Lovers. It just reads as extremely high resistance

Update: overnighted a new sensor, put it in, car s started right up and runs beautifully! Got a few more things to take care of, but at least it moves under it's own power again

BuckleSpring,

I am experiencing the same issue on my recently acquired '95 XJR that was sitting for about 5 years. Opened up the tank and all the rubber bits are sludge. I too found the few available mounts to be rather expensive (Supply and Demand I get it). I am interested in your 3D printed mounts and actually found your part on thingiverse before stumbling on this thread. How are they holding up? Is it possible to purchase a few from you? I do not have access to a 3D printer.

Thank you!
Gatsby
