Common questions
Which wire is the 12 V constant on the XF (X250) radio connector?
C2ME03A pin 1, wire colour YE-RD (Yellow with Red tracer). It stays live with the key out: this is the memory feed.
Which pin is the ground on the XF (X250) head unit connector?
C2ME03A pin 8, wire colour BK (Black).
What are the speaker wire colours on the XF (X250)?
FRONT_RIGHT_POS — pin 1, WH-VT; REAR_LEFT_POS — pin 3, WH-GN; REAR_RIGHT_POS — pin 4, BN-WH; FRONT_LEFT_POS — pin 6, WH; FRONT_RIGHT_NEG — pin 7, WH-OG; REAR_LEFT_NEG — pin 9, BN-YE; REAR_RIGHT_NEG — pin 10, BN-BU; FRONT_LEFT_NEG — pin 12, WH-BN.
What connector does the XF (X250) head unit use?
The head unit sits on C2ME03A, C2ME03D and C2ME03B. Jaguar colour codes are not the aftermarket standard, so match an adapter by pin number, not by wire colour.
Notes and caveats
DIN colour codes. Colours here are two-letter DIN: BK black, BN brown, WH white, VT violet. The number after each colour is the circuit number.
Cars with a power amplifier. With the amplifier fitted the speakers hang off the MOST ring, not off this connector. The eight pins above are the system without one.
Same layout as the XK. The pin-to-channel mapping matches the XK (X150) of the same years, which uses the same audio module.
Not the connectivity module. The head unit is the part ending -18C815-. The USB and iPod box — C2P19340 or C2Z1486, parts ending -14D212- or -18C941- — is a different unit on the same ring.
Which head unit is fitted
Head units this fits. 7F6N-18C815-*, 7G9N-18C815-*, C2P22868. XF / XFR (X250) 2008–2015. The head unit is the part ending -18C815-. Jaguar service number C2P22868 covers both cars: XF and XK share this head unit, and it supersedes C2P8308, C2P13127, C2P13327, C2P21539 and C2Z7039.
