Ok. Changed out the bulb. (Wish i had smaller hands)
Still doesn't work. The driver side works just fine still.

Can't be a fuse since the other side works.
What else could it be?

since one side works and the other side does not then you would think it can't be a fuse.... but in the X-Type there is a fuse for each headlight. I learned this the hard way. Do you have a owners guide? The fuse box is under the hood on the drivers side (USA). I bet it is the fuse...

if not fuse
its more then likely the conector that attaches to the headlite bulb is O/C, terminals burned
remove conector from bulb and check it for power and ground
if this is the fault which most likely it is you"ll have to replace the conector
jag dealer sells the repair conectors there will be 2 of them
one power the other ground
