Frequently asked questions

What is the DAC5499-G tank sender unit and what does it do?
The DAC5499-G is the left-hand fuel tank sender unit in a twin-tank fuel system. It mounts in the left-hand tank, where a float-operated variable resistor tracks that tank's fuel level and feeds the fuel gauge. It's a Smiths unit for the Jaguar XJ. A worn sender typically makes the gauge read inaccurately.
Which vehicles does the DAC5499-G fit, and which side is it?
The DAC5499-G is the left-hand (LH) tank sender for the Jaguar XJ6 and XJ12, Series 2 and Series 3 saloons. Here 'Series III' means the Jaguar XJ saloon, not a Land Rover Series vehicle. It's a Jaguar application only. The right-hand equivalent is DAC5498-G. Fit the side matching the tank you're servicing.
Why is there a separate sender for each tank on the DAC5499-G application?
The DAC5499-G is used because these Jaguar XJ models run a twin-tank fuel system, with one sender per tank. The left-hand sender reads only the left tank's level. If just one gauge reading is faulty, typically only that tank's sender needs changing. Match LH to left and DAC5498-G (RH) to right.
