Arrived at airport and checked lights once I had parked.

All working Whistle Rolling Eyes

What do the collective think?

Just hope they work on our return as night time.

TIA

As above - faulty switch. Turning it on & off a few times has got it going? Could maybe do with a clean or worst case a new switch.

Worst case scenario there is a land rover stealer in Bishops stortford which is a couple of miles from the airport.
I am in Sawbridgeworth which is about 5 miles away from the airport and I have a nanocom.
Give me a shout if you need a hand

With the nanocom can you switch the lights to Scandinavian DRL mode, maybe that will take the switch out the loop?

I think that is one of the options I can pick off the build list to reprogramme the car.
Will have to have a look

I guess a GS wouldn't have front fogs, or auto lights
