I have a 2007 S-Type, with the days getting shorter, I am now driving to work in the dark. The last couple of days once or twice during the trip (30 minutes) the headlights flick off then back on again - I am guessing for about a quarter of a second - really quick. I have checked fuses and relays for tightness - all seem OK.
Does anyone have any ideas?

 

First of all welcome caterpillar. Please do an intro if you decide to hang around.

You would probably be better posting this question in the S type specific forum to get more eyes on it.

I did a quick search and this turned up:

Had a similar problem with my XJ8 X350 it was the stalk switch put a new one in problem solved

Thanks everyone for the replies
I'm pretty sure its a contact in the stalk - the last couple of times I've driven at night I have moved the light switch to auto and the problem hasn't occured - fingers crossed.

 

If it's doing it now I would replace the stalk. The problem will only get worse with time.

Did you ever get your lights repaired?
