Your Jaguar has more than a dozen onboard computers monitoring and optimizing things like fuel consumption, navigation, your climate control, and a wide-array of safety systems. Needless to say, your car's electrical system is critical to the functioning of these systems, and your battery is a critical component of the electrical system itself.

It can be easy to overlook just how important your battery is, so being alert for warning signs of a weakening battery can help insure your Jaguar's systems are running properly and prevent you from encountering a break-down.

   

Common Signs of a Weak or Dying Battery

  • "Check Battery" warning symbol is displayed on the dashboard
  • Slow or delayed cranking upon starting your vehicle
  • Dimming of interior or exterior lights during normal operation
  • Corrosion buildup around battery terminals and posts

Battery Maintenance Tips

  • Tighten and secure all cables and clamps around battery terminals
  • Remove any corrosion build up around battery terminal posts (+/-)
  • Be aware of the climate you live in. A hotter climate takes a harsher toll on battery life and performance than a colder climate
  • Always turn off headlights, interior lights, radio and any other accessories when not in use. This helps reduce overall drain on the battery
