Hello. I have a 2009 Jaguar XF S. I have a really big problem the hazard lights won't turn off. I have no idea what to do. Please help. I'm scared because my battery can get really low.

 

The first thing is remove the ground cable from the battery that will shut off lightts. Then take some spray electrical contact cleaner and spray the hazard switch while turning it on and off. Then reconnect the battery cable.
If that hasn't fixed the problem then you will have to replace the switch. They do get corroded from lack of use.
Try that for a start and get back to us with the results and we can go further if needed.

 

Thank you so much avern but i did something else. I waited for the battery to drain and then i jump started the car with another car's battery and it worked it was a little hard but it worked. But thank you.

 

I had the same problem. Disconnecting the battery is a temporary solution. To fix it for good, you need to access the CJB (Central Junction Box) in the rear trunk. It is located on the right hand side of the trunk. You must remove the fabric liner. Once you have access to the CJB (box right above the battery with the 3 big relays), disconnect the positive from the battery. There are two connectors close to the floor (lower portion of the CJB). One is brown and one is purple. The problem is with the brown one. Since you are there, fix both of them! Disconnect them. Wwhen disconnecting the purple one, the parking lights will turn on (this is ok). Rub your finger on the connectors, you will feel moisture. Use a hair dryer or a heat gun and dry them. You will see some corrosion on the pins (CJB). I used a file to remove the corrosion. I also used a tiny screwdriver (used to fix watches) to scrape the female pins inside the connectors. Once completed, plug them back and reconnect the battery. Try the hazards by pressing the console button. If not working properly, repeat the file and tiny screwdriver steps. Once everything is ok, disconnect the two connectors (brown and purple) and add dielectric grease to the connectors. Plug them back and you should be good to go!

 

Absolutely the same problem as described however I am uncertain about the two connectors described above. In the rear compartment junction box, I couldn't see two connectors of these colours. Can anyone provide a picture/diagram/reference number to help me identify them on my car (2009 model XFS) - Gerry

 

I think I know, why there is confusion about connectors and wires:
The initial question was regarding an issue on an XF Jaguar - posted in the X-Type section.
It is quite possible that the reply is in regards of a X-Type (as this is the X-Type section). I am quite sure that X-Types and XF do not use the same connectors...
