Hi,

The attachment "Jaguar 351 Signature lights hack.docx" seems to be missing. Is there a way to recover the file?

Thanks

I believe that the DRL (daylight running lights) is turned on my a setting made with the SDD used by the Jaguar Dealer. I tried reposing the directions but was unable to.

I'm absolutely scared to do this... I need a step by step guide..., I'm not an expert....

With hardly a pause for breath, I leap into a response:

It seems to be still attached - or has been reattached - to post #8 and post #19. (at least it works for me - beware it downloaded as "Jaguar 351 Signature lights hack.docx.dot", and so may have done a disappearing act on your machine, or your machine may have blocked the download of a ".dot" file)

Just completed this "HACK" on my 2014 XJL, center wire on the clip side of the connector. I used 2 SPDT relays so I only had to run one wire ( switched +12v) to the drivers side. my relays had a metal mounting tab and there is a flat plate directly behind the headlight with a small hole that I used to mount them, a small bolt with a locking nut worked perfectly. I also tapped into the switched 12v in the fuse box, had to use a different fuse, one shown was not switched, used the one to the right and added a dedicated in line 3A fuse. Everything seems to be working, do have a delay in turning off of the LED's but not an issue. Thank You to GEARS for this post.

Pin 3: Pole A - Normally Open (NO)
Pin 4: Pole B - Normally Open (NO)
