You need to do a full drive cycle if they cleared the ECM. It is more specific than driving at 50. https://www.google.ca/search?q=drive+cycle+procedure ..

take it back and say FIX IT. or check all fuses and scan the PCM (BCM) see what it tells you? or take it back.

P1797 = Neutral Switch Circuit Malfunction. I am assuming yours is an automatic. On Automatics there is a switch on the transmission that can override the ignition to prevent the vehicle starting if it is in gear. This code is showing a fault in either the wiring to the switch or the switch itself. This is one of those jobs which depends on where the switch is fitted. On some Jags it is fitted (hidden) underneath the battery box so it's not too bad to get to. However, some are mounted on the transmission housing in a typically silly location and it becomes a much bigger job. Personally I would suffer the pain of paying and getting a good mechanic to do it as they will have all the tools to deal with it quickly.

Hello. It seems there is an 'inoperable' fuel injector for #3 cylinder. That fuel injector could be 'clogged' or 'dirty'; yet not sending a trouble code to the ECM. Also, it's possible #3 cylinder has a loss of 'compression'. This, too, will cause a 'misfire'. Good luck and keep me informed; if you want to.

Write down the name and any numbers from the front of the radio then write down the VIN and go to the dealer with proof of ownership and they will call for the code.
