My 88 Jag xj6 has the 4 way flashers going all the time, dosn't matter what position the flasher switch is in .It is also giving an alert for low brake pressure and low hydrolic fluid. is the flasher problem related to one of these or is somthing else going on?

yes these can be related. Disconnect the switch for the 4-way flashers. Lights out, YES, replace the switch.
Jumper the connectors for the hyd fluid level and brake pressure switches. Lights go out? YES, replace sensors.
If "NO" to the above tests, I would seriously look at the dash board processor. The books and diagrams are not very clear on this issue. I have an '88 xj6 and would appreciate knowing what you find out. Good luck.
