The engine malfunction light came on 3 days ago on my 2005 Jaguar X-Type. The car runs fine, but the owners manual says that special diagnostic equipment is required to repair such falts. Is it ok to drive like this, or do I have to take it to a dealer and pay the "big bucks" as Jaguar intends?. The engine malfunction light came on 3 days ago on my 2005 Jaguar X-Type.

when you turn on your ignition to the point before engaging the starter all your warning lights should light up. The Engine Check Light is very obvious, except they throw convention to the wind and show it as 'Service Engine Soon' lamp 'Malfunction indicator lamp (MIL)'.
Page 63 - Section 2-7 Instruments and controls
Malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) If this indicator lamp comes on steady or blinks while the engine is running, it may indicate a potential emission control malfunction. The malfunction indicator lamp may also come on steady if the fuel filler cap is loose or missing, or if the vehicle runs out of fuel. Check to make sure the fuel filler cap is installed and closed tightly, and that the vehicle has at least three gallons of fuel in the fuel tank. After a few driving trips, the lamp should turn off if no other potential emission control system malfunction exists.
The check engine light should not come on at all. If it does than you need to put it on a code checker, to find out the reason for the check engine light coming on. The light is known as the malfunction indicator light (MIL). When it comes on it indicates a malfunction in the system.
possible causes Shorted or open circuit within Transmission Control Module (TCM) - Faulty Transmission Control Module (TCM) symptoms - Engine Light ON (or Service Engine Soon Warning Light) - Driveability problems - Transmission shifting problems p0700 description The transaxle Control Module (TCM) monitors the malfunction of sensors and actuators relating to transaxle control. When the TCM detects a malfunction with the control, a signal is send to the Engine Control Module (ECM) to trigger the Engine Light or Service Engine Soon light. The ECM stores the P0700 code and it means the TCM detected a malfunction with the transaxle controls.
O/D light blinks, but with that the check engine light is ON.--- This will make your troubleshooting easier.When the check engine light comes on, and remains on, this indicates that there is error stored in your cars computer.---- Once the computer is scanned, you will get error codes, as per that error code it will point towards faulty part, which is causing the O/D light to blink.--------
Most probably the O/D light blinks, If a problem exists in No. 1 or No. 2 solenoids or speed sensors . ---------------For car after 1995 it requires OBD2 tool and for car before 1995 it requires OBD1 tool.------- ---------You car will require OBD1 tool.There are very few auto parts store and repair centers who have OBD1 tool.In your case you required OBD1 tool.------ You can just contact local auto-parts store and they will guide you to the nearest store who has OBD1 tool.There you can get your car scanned.If there is error set in your cars computer, then you will receive the error code.As per error code it will point towards the faulty part causing this problem in your car.------------- --------------The codes which you get is scanning will be mostly any of this following codes:---DTC P0500 - Vehicle Speed Sensor Malfunction . DTC P0750 - Shift Solenoid "A" Malfunction . DTC P0753 - Shift Solenoid "A" Electrical Malfunction . DTC P0755 - Shift Solenoid "B" Malfunction . DTC P0758 - Shift Solenoid "B" Electrical Malfunction . DTC P0770 - Shift Solenoid "E" (SL) Malfunction . DTC P0773 - Shift Solenoid "E" (SL) Electrical Malfunction . DTC P1520 - Stop Light Switch Signal Malfunction . DTC P1705 - Direct Clutch Speed Sensor Circuit Malfunction . DTC P1765 - Shift Solenoid Valve SLN Circuit Malfunction . DTC P1780 - Park/Neutral Position Switch Malfunction---------------Now it all depends on what code you get, as per that you can replace the following part.-------This will help.Thanks.Helpmech.
P0700 JEEP - Transaxle Control System Malfunction The transaxle Control Module (TCM) monitors the malfunction of sensors
and actuators relating to transaxle control. When the TCM detects a
malfunction with the control, a signal is send to the Engine Control
Module (ECM) to trigger the Engine Light or Service Engine Soon light.
The ECM stores the P0700 code and it means the TCM detected a
malfunction with the transaxle controls.
Symptoms - Engine Light ON (or Service Engine Soon Warning Light) - Driveability problems - Transaxle shifting problems
Possible causes - Shorted or open circuit within transmission control module (TCM) - Failure of transaxle control module
Tech notes: Since the P0700 is just and informative code, check the TCM for more codes to resolve the problem. So you'll
have to have the dealer or another qualified shop/technician pull the transaxle
codes from the TCM and go from there.
USE A CODE READER FREE FROM AN AUTO ZONE AND FIRST DETERMINE WHAT CODE IS COMING UP. JUST GOE TO AUTOZONE AND ASK THAT THEY USE THE CODE READER TO DETERMINE WHY YOUR ENGINE LIGHT IS ON
