2012 Daytime Running Lights
Just Traded my 08 XK for A 2012 XK as I was going over the car I noticed that the DRLs are only on when the headlights are on I read the owners manual it says Canadian models will go on only in drive with the e brake off I’m in US ,mine are not on during the day I thought they were supposed to be on all the time Can anyone tell me if that’s the case
Thanks Ian

Unlike earlier models, Jaguar don't publish full details of relays in the Owner's Handbook and even the Workshop Manual doesn't have a single, full list.
The Electrical Guide has also gone from being a clearly indexed document to the equivalent of doing a 5000 piece jigsaw without the benefit of the picture on the box.
Your USA specification DLR are different to both Canadian specification and my European specification. The following description should help identify how your DLR should operate.
The DRL operate automatically when a gear is selected after starting the engine. They then remain on until the ignition is switched off, or side lamps or headlamps are selected on. On USA vehicles, the DRL also go off if the transmission is selected to P or N and the parking brake is applied. While a turn signal indicator is operational, the daytime running lamp on that side of the vehicle either reduces in intensity, to the side lamp level (all except USA), or goes off (USA).

I know California is pretty wacky (I lived there for 30 years), but running electricity through a wire in SoCal will not make the wire brittle.

Good morning as of today brought the car into Dealer in Ft Lauderdale they told me car needs DRLs to be turned on using SDD so no problems I had them check the car out for other small problems like I smelled anti freeze but wasn't loosing any turned out the water pump had a leak other issue was in alarm so the are replacing the sounder and i noticed a clunk when putting it into park turns out there's a bulletin on that but the good news is all covered under CPO warranty other than diagnostic charge and they are using that to turn on the DRLs they gave me a loaner asked for an F Type but no Jag just a Hyundai so all is good
