sounds like you might have fried something i would not try swapping out
more parts without knowing what the real problem is but i would take it
to a competent jag dealer or shop for an evaluation you may have
toasted at least one chip but it will be impossible to tell without the
proper equipment so have the car towed and get ready for a not
inexpensive repair and in the future don't start replacing parts
without analyzing the problem and determing the cause
