Jaguar-XJ6 - xj6 elctrical mystery
Gary (63.227.244.54) - Sat Feb 5 21:26:06 2005
We have a 93 xj6 that took a jolt to the front. I can't get it started. I turn the key to the "ON" position and can hear the fuel pump start to run, but the starter doesn't make a sound. The inertia switch is not tripped. What does happen though, is that all the settings for the radio and clock are wiped out each time I turn the key past "ON" to "START". Any ideas?

On your XJ6 sounds like a dead short from the starter, solenoid, or cable, when the solenoid engages the current is very high dropping the battery voltage so low the clock and radio reset. To prove this put a meter on the battery and watch it when you try to start your Jag, and see if the voltage dips dramatically Look for a pinched/cut hot wire, or a loose, damaged or missing ground wire from the frame to the engine. You mentioned front end damage; it only takes a second to miss something when you rebuild one. Good luck
