    Nope you were wrong like the rest of us. I always say battery first until you say you have completed the steps to rule that out. Click no start test battery then harness then starter in that order simplest first.

    Ok all, here goes… My friend Matt came over this morning and some of you may know him.. A very knowable guy also with a XK. He did a few checks on the battery and relays. Seems like everything there was ok.. Then he said, lets jack up the XK and he got under the XK and shook the Starter Wire Harness and BINGO the XK started… Mat is a Life Saver. I have been so down since Thursday trying to figure out what was wrong. Mat came over and in 10, well maybe 15 minutes had it running again.. Then we drove the XK to the jeep dealer, to have them install a New Starter Wiring Harness tomorrow. THANKS TO MAT, I was back on the road. And also Thanks for all you guys and girls for your feedback. Steve….

    Haha no the starter wasn't working because of the starter wiring harness was bad. Never once said the starter was bad and needed to be replaced. Everyone was saying the battery, which I knew wasn't the cause. It was quite obvious the battery was fine but starter wasn't turning over the engine.

    Anyways. I'm just glad he got it fixed and that it was an issue with the starter not turning over the engine!
