Xk8 electric problems
Caros amigos,
Surgiu um problema no meu xk8 e que é o seguinte:
Ontem, de repente, sempre que dava luz de máximos e comutava para médios o radio desligava-se por 4 segundos e voltava a ligar !!!!.
Se ligasse os farois de nevoeiro voltava a acontecer o mesmo!!!
é inrigante. o que será ?
ps : a bateria tem 1 ano, é portanto nova.
ps: hoje já está tudo bem, o que me leva a supor que será algo que só com o aquecimento aparece.

Dear Friends,
There was a problem with my XK8, is as follows:
Yesterday, suddenly, they always gave light and switched to medium Maximos the radio turns off alone for four seconds and turned back on !!!!.
If you turn the lights back NEVOEIRO the same thing happens!
what will?
ps: The battery is 1 year, is so new.
ps: It's okay today, which leads me to suppose that one will be something that only comes with warming.
They can give help please?

Hello JP;
I was hoping that someone with a little knowledge would chime in here with some advice, however, they all may be sitting around...waiting for another member to address your problem. I'm just an Old Locomotive Engineer with the bare minimum of experience. You want to know about the operation of an EMD, or GE locomotive, I can reasonably answer your question. Does this happen when the engine is running? Intermitent gremlins are hard to pin down. Come on you Jag officiados, give this man a hand!!

a little translation...
Now, what they do have in common, is current draw, especially when the fogs or the high beams fire up, if a voltage drop causes the radio to act up (go silent), even temporarily, it could very well be power related, either from the battery/alternator and/or wiring amongst the primary distribution to ECM/BPM. That's my guess. Have the obvious checked first, then work your way from the power to the modules.
- when i turn on the high beams, my radio turns off for a few seconds and then turns back on immediately.
- when i turn on the fog lights, the radio turns off for a few seconds and then turns on immediately.

Make sure the cables supplying voltage to the affected components are tight... no possibility of arcing or loose connections. It is best to disconnect battery. (save radio codes if used)
You would be surprised what this much current will do to a wrench.
Tighten cable supplying:
Engine Compartment fuse box. (under the rubber cover)
Passenger side fuse box.
Main fuses (500A) just forward of the spare tire.
I don't figure it is a relay problem as high beam and fog are separate relays.
On my car, '04, fog lamps go out when high beams are on.
Any other symptoms other than the radio going out??
