The average cost of a Jaguar XJS starter is between $129.99 and $129.99.
A Jaguar XJS starter is an electrical motor that is responsible for turning over the engine of a Jaguar XJS so that it can start. When the key is turned in the ignition, the starter motor engages with the flywheel to crank the engine and initiate the combustion process that allows the vehicle to run.
Signs of a Faulty Jaguar XJS Starter
Here are some common signs of a faulty Jaguar XJS starter:
- Clicking sound when you try to start the engine
- Grinding noise when you turn the key
- Slow or hesitant cranking of the engine
- Electrical issues, such as flickering lights, dashboard warning lights, or loss of power
- The engine won't start at all, even though the battery is charged.
If you are experiencing any of these issues, it could be a sign of a faulty starter and you should have your vehicle inspected by a professional mechanic.
Steps for Testing Your Jaguar XJS Starter
Here are the steps to test a Jaguar XJS starter:
- Turn off the engine and disconnect the battery cable from the negative terminal.
- Locate the starter motor, which is usually attached to the transmission bell housing.
- Inspect the wiring connections to the starter motor. Check for any loose, corroded, or damaged wires, and repair or replace as necessary.
- Use a voltmeter to check the battery voltage. The voltage should be between 12.6 and 14.7 volts. If the battery voltage is low, recharge the battery before proceeding.
- Turn on the headlights to drain any residual charge from the battery. Then turn off the headlights.
- Place the transmission in Neutral (manual) or Park (automatic).
- Connect a remote starter switch between the starter solenoid and the positive battery terminal. This will allow you to start the engine from under the hood without having to use the ignition switch.
- Press the remote starter switch to crank the starter. Listen for any unusual noises, such as grinding or clicking sounds, which could indicate a problem with the starter motor or solenoid.
- Measure the voltage across the starter terminals during cranking using a voltmeter. The voltage should not drop below 9.6 volts. If it does, the battery may be weak or there may be high resistance in the starter circuit.
- If the starter motor is not turning or is turning slowly, check the starter circuit for resistance using a digital multimeter. Resistance should be less than 0.5 ohms. If resistance is too high, check for corroded or damaged wiring connections or a bad ground.
- If the starter motor checks out okay, test the solenoid operation by applying battery voltage to the solenoid terminal while the starter is installed in the car. The solenoid should click audibly and move the starter gear into engagement with the flywheel. If the solenoid fails to engage or makes a clicking sound but does not turn the starter, it may be faulty.
- If all tests are okay, reinstall the starter and reconnect the battery cable.
