I own an 88 XJS, and I’m considering purchasing a 75 XJ6. These things are addicting. I have not seen the car personally, but the seller sent a photo of the dash. I’m curious about the Catalyst / EGR warning lamp. I have not seen this on a lot of other series II cars and it seems to be from federal spec XJ6 and XJ12 cars from that time period. I also noticed the ignition light is still illuminated - on the XJS that could indicate insufficient speed to charge the battery, and either the engine was just started or the water temp gauge is faulty.
Does anyone have any thoughts or knowledge about the catalyst / EGR warning lamp? None of this is a deal breaker for me, but I’m curious about it and would like to know a little more before I discuss it with the seller. The XJS owner’s manual I have access to from a similar time has no information other then the light exists and has a replacement bulb.
Thanks,
Justin
