Hi, I have the common fault of headlights adaptive system failure in my late 2006 XKR (left hand side) which throws up the warning on dash and puts left headlight “down” for safety.
Ive tried the “smack the lamp”, turn wheels fully left and right x 3 etc. but keeps reappearing.
Ive bought a new control module (plugs in the rear of headlamp unit), however, it makes the OTHER headlamp AFS motor run continuously, albeit both now pointing correctly straight ahead.
The module manufacturer tells me I need Jaguar to “code the new module to the other one” to enable system to work, as the module is generic until coded...5DF 008 704. And the XKR has 70 at the end of that code.
Apologies for long thread but is this something that sounds familiar and is it possible to code a module??
cheers, Simon

 

Hi Simon sorry to hear of your problem though small . i have heard of a rather good jaguar indy up your neck of the woods in Paisley they are called Prestige Jaguar . get a very good name i have read on other forums could be worth a drive over not far from Edinburgh . call them on 0141-887-2861

 

Thanks George,
yes I’ve heard good reports about them and will give them a call if it’s not fixable. Cheers

 

I imagine it would only take an hour or so you could get a coffee etc while you wait . good luck
