I'm not absolutely certain about the issue here. Your thread title is will not start but your text is cannot engage parking brake.
There are so many error codes for the parking brake system that troubleshooting a fault is complete guesswork without a scantool that can read C codes.
When you get a minute, please follow this link New Member Area - Intro a MUST - Jaguar Forums - Jaguar Enthusiasts Forum to the New Member Area - Intro a MUST forum and post some information about yourself and your vehicle for all members to see. In return you'll get a proper welcome and some useful advice about posting to the forum.

Hey Steve, download the free tech manuals in the stickies at the top of the sub forum. You'll want the X150 service manual and the wiring diagram for your serial number range. The tech manual is actually pretty darned good and should help a lot.
Sound like you have a sensor problem. I'm not certain how the actuator works but from what I learned while doing the rear brakes, the actuator has a sensor to know if it's pulling correctly. It needs reset when you replace the rear pads. I assume it's almost too smart for it's own good. I am surprised about your comment that it's putting the brake on in park. I can hear mine pull in and never noticed it in park. Just the park pawl in the transmission engaging is all I ever hear.

Diagnostic Trouble Codes. When they set, the MIL (Malfunction Indicator Light also referred to as the 'check-engine-light') is turned on.
Use the OBD port to access any stored codes. If there are any, post them here.
+1 on obtaining the Workshop Manual and other information from this forum.
