The "P" on the shifter is lit up red. The car will not crank or anything, a mechanic used a toold to start it from the starter, he also took sometime to mess with the relays and it still did not fix the problem, the battery is not dead the starter still works and I am lost and confused. Like I said the P for parking is lit in red and according to a gentlemen on the jaguar forum it has something to do with my problem. Please help me this is my only car and I need it badly plus I love the car and I had huge plans for it. Thank you

When your engine is not cranking (turning) over it will be mainly due to three separate areas, first it could be the battery, cables or poor connection, next is the starter...
