XJ Series Electrical System Architecture
The 1998 Model Year XJ Series uses an advanced electrical system architecture which features "multiplexing", first introduced in Jaguar vehicles with
the XK8. Multiplexing allows for simplified wiring harnesses while providing greater flexibility in programming market variants. Two data networks are
used in the system: a controller area network (CAN) for the engine, drive train and related systems, and a standard corporate protocol network (SCP) for
the body systems. Any vehicle subsystem depicted on the figures with the CAN or SCP included uses data derived from the network, or transmits data
via the network to achieve control. Messages for both networks are listed in CAN/SCP Network. See: Powertrain Management/Computers and Control
Systems/Vehicle Multiplex Systems - CAN / SCP/Description and Operation
In addition to the two networks, the XJ Series uses two serial data buses (ISO) for diagnostics, for the security system and for the programming of certain
control modules.
The XJ Series uses both power and logic grounds; however, it does not use a common logic ground stud connection as in previous Sedan vehicles.
