2013 XF S DRL issue! Help!
Discussion
Hi all,
I have recently bought a 2013 Jag XF S. Randomly, today, the passenger front daylight running light won’t go off, at all. Even when locked. Have tried taking auto lights off, checked stalk wasn’t down for parking light. If you stick your ear next to it, it does make a slight buzzing. The other one doesn’t.
I’m a bit stuck as to what to do!? Any thoughts or ideas? Hoping being an LED it won’t drain the battery but won’t get my hopes up.
Thank you. Mark

Baffled! Disconnected battery, twice, and no different, light still permanently on ??
Earth-leak on the light connector perhaps. Try taking it off and reconnecting it a few times to get a decent circuit again. I used to get similar with old Ford displaying all the rear light when reversing. I had to take some emery cloth to the male part of the connector. MrH said:

andHas anyone solved this issue?
My 2013 XF has just done the same thing. The front nearside DRL came on while parked on the drive. It is dimmed approx 50% and making a faint buzzing noise.
There was a red triangle warning on the driver info panel but when I pressed it it displayed a message " refer to owners manual" therefore useless
Any advice most welcome
My local garage found problem. Headlamp washer pump leaking, this is directly above main loom. Washer fluid had soaked into loom, tracked along into multi pin and then into main PCB . They managed to clean all corroded pins and connectors, revealed loom and relaxed pump. Now OK but could have been a disaster. Apparently common known fault on this model, Jaguar issued service bulletin but won't help you. They fitted better pump from 2015
