Remember that when the Jaguar goes into fail mode, there is a three second delay after the failure point has been removed. It is unlikely that the field conditions this year can cause over current so it is likely something else. Improper transmission assembly, bad alignment on shafts, too much chain tension, loose hardware, etc.
