Service Bulletins

J84/01 January 1984, Introduction of the Model 9520 Radio.

In February 1984 the model 9520 Radio was introduced. The radio featured a removeable front control panel. The radios were shipped in two parts, with the chassis installed at the factory, and the front installed at the dealer.

If there is a problem with the radio, the first check is to replace the control panel with a known good unit. This determines whether the fault is with the panel or the chassis of the radio. It is suggested that the faulty part be replaced.

The tape player had a fault.... If it were set in tape scan mode, the tape couldn't run at fast forward or rewind. So in order to fast forward or rewind on a blank section of tape, the tape scan control had to be turned off.

The control and chassis numbers were both to be supplied on a card in the back of the owners manual. The Sound System Registration Card was requested to be sent in by the new owner.

J84/02 January 1984 Sill Drain Holes

There are four body seal drain holes on each side of the XJ6. To suppress water from being splashed into the two front holes, they were plugged beginning with VIN 362000. The drain holes that remain should be checked yearly for clearance.
