Configuration and Setup with Diagnostics

Model: Jaguar Xf MK 1 - Years 2008-2015
Part: Checks and maintenance

If you want to change setup settings of the vehicle that cannot be accessed through the instrument cluster menu, you need to use diagnostic equipment connected to the car's OBD II diagnostic port. During this phase, it is essential to ensure that communication between the vehicle and the diagnostic tool does not break due to the car's battery or the computer running out of power: therefore, it is recommended to connect the car battery to a charger, turn off everything (exterior lights, climate control, interior lights, radio, etc.), and also ensure the computer is connected to its power supply; once everything is set up, you can start the program to change the configurations.
