CUSTOMER SYMPTOMS MAY INCLUDE THE ENGINE CHECK LAMP ILLUMINATED WHICH MAYBE ACCOMPANIED WITH A MISFIRE/ENGINE VIBRATION AT IDLE. MISFIRE CODES (P0301, P0302, P0303, P0304, P0305, P0306, P0307, P0308, P0316) ARE STORED IN THE PCM DEPENDENT ON THE AFFECTED CYLINDER(S). CAUSE: POOR FUEL QUALITY OR FUEL CONTAMINANTS RESTRICTING THE FUEL INJECTOR FLOW RATE."
SB-6-206-NAS2016-09-02. Service bulletin. EQUIPMENT:OTHER:OWNERS/SERVICE/OTHER MANUAL. "DESCRIPTION TWO ISSUES HAVE BEEN DISCOVERED WITH THE EVENT DATA RECORDERS (EDR) INSTALLED IN 2013-2014 MODEL YEAR XJ VEHICLES WITHIN THE LISTED VIN RANGE. THE EDR IS NOW REQUIRED TO RECORD SOME VEHICLE DATA WHICH CERTAIN USA AGENCIES (POLICE, ETC.) MAY USE FOR CRASH INVESTIGATION PURPOSES. TWO ELEMENTS OF THE DATA THAT SHOULD BE RECORDED ARE NOT STORED IN THE CORRECT FORMAT. CONSEQUENTLY, IN THIS CONDITION VEHICLES DO NOT MEET ALL THE REQUIREMENTS OF 49 CFR PART 563 - EVENT DATA RECORDERS."
SSM-666972016-09-02. Service bulletin. ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:COOLING SYSTEM. "ISSUE: AFTER THE ENGINE COOLANT ON A 5.0L V8 AJ133 ENGINE HAS BEEN PARTIALLY OR FULLY DRAINED AND FILLED, THE CUSTOMER EXPERIENCES THE ENGINE OVERHEATING. CAUSE: THE REFILL PROCEDURE HAS NOT BEEN COMPLETED CORRECTLY, RESULTING IN INSUFFICIENT COOLANT IN THE ENGINE."
SSM-666372016-09-02. Service bulletin. ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:12V/24V/48V BATTERY. "ISSUE: A CUSTOMER MAY REPORT A CONCERN WITH A FLAT BATTERY OR POOR STARTING; WHEN TESTING THE BATTERY IT IS DETERMINED THAT A CHARGE IS REQUIRED. CAUSE: WHEN CHARGING A BATTERY (BOTH PRIMARY AND SECONDARY) WITH A BMS (BATTERY MONITORING SYSTEM) FITTED, THE EARTH FROM THE CHARGER MUST BE CONNECTED TO A SUITABLE CHASSIS OR ENGINE EARTH (CHECK TOPIX FOR APPROPRIATE LOCATION). THIS ALLOWS THE BMS TO SEE THE CURRENT GOING INTO THE BATTERY. HOWEVER WHEN USING A DIAGNOSTIC CHARGER FROM MIDTRONICS SUCH AS GR1, GRX OR GR8(110 VOLTS) THIS CONNECTION PROCESS CAN CAUSE AN INCORRECT BATTERY ANALYSIS DUE TO THE EXTRA RESISTANCE IN THE WIRING WHEN CONNECTED TO A CHASSIS OR ENGINE EARTH."
SSM-585972016-09-01. Service bulletin. TIRES:PRESSURE MONITORING AND REGULATING SYSTEMS; EQUIPMENT:ELECTRICAL; TIRES:TEMPORARY/EMERGENCY SPARE TIRE. "ISSUE: A CUSTOMER MAY REPORT THAT A SPARE WHEEL LOW TYRE PRESSURE WARNING IS DISPLAYED IN THE INSTRUMENT PACK MESSAGE CENTRE, WHEN NO FULL SIZE SPARE WHEEL IS PRESENT. CAUSE: THERE IS A SCENARIO WHERE AN INCORRECT SPARE WHEEL ID MAY BE LEARNT BY A VEHICLE THAT WILL THEN DISPLAY A LOW PRESSURE WARNING, SPECIFICALLY FOR THE SPARE WHEEL, EVEN IF THE VEHICLE IS FITTED WITH A NON TPMS SPARE I.E SPACE SAVER OR INSTANT MOBILITY SYSTEM (IMS). THIS ISSUE IS UNLIKELY TO OCCUR, BUT PROBABILITY IS INCREASED AFTER THE USE OF WHEELS WITH NO TPMS SENSORS FITTED."
SSM-723072016-09-01. Service bulletin. ELECTRICAL SYSTEM; ELECTRICAL SYSTEM: INSTRUMENT CLUSTER/PANEL. "ISSUE THE MESSAGE ""RADAR SENSOR BLOCKED"" APPEARS IN INSTRUMENT PACK DISPLAY. IF BLOCKAGE OCCURS WHILE ACC IS BEING USED, “DRIVER INTERVENE” AND/OR ""RADAR SENSOR BLOCKED"" MESSAGE WILL APPEAR ON THE CLUSTER AND DTC C1A67-97 IS ALSO SET. BLOCKAGE CAN ALSO OCCUR WHEN ACC IS NOT BEING USED. CAUSE ""RADAR SENSOR BLOCKED"" INDICATES THAT THE ADAPTIVE SPEED CONTROL SYSTEM'S VISIBILITY HAS BEEN REDUCED DUE TO AN OBSTRUCTION. ACC CONTINUALLY SCANS FOR OBJECTS AHEAD AND, IF IT SEES NO OBJECTS I.E. VEHICLES, ROAD SIGNS, LAMPPOSTS, GUARD RAILS ETC, IT WILL INDICATE A BLOCKAGE EVEN IF THE ACC IS NOT USED. THE C1A67-97 DTC FLAGS A RADAR BLOCKAGE SITUATION AND NOT A SYSTEM FAULT."
SSM-723022016-09-01. Service bulletin. ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. "ISSUE B1412-96 BEING FLAGGED IN THE GATEWAY MODULE CAUSE UNDER INVESTIGATION."
SSM-719892016-09-01. Service bulletin. EQUIPMENT ADAPTIVE/MOBILITY; EQUIPMENT. "ISSUE: CUSTOMER COMPLAINS OF DAMAGE/MARKING ON THE SURFACE OF THE VEHICLE’S INSTRUMENT PACK LENS.
