I can only assume that it's for the Americans. They have to put their lights on when it rains. At least in Florida anyway. 2010 MY Vogue SE TDV8 3.6 Stornoway Grey- fully loaded

Is the Rain Sensor area of the Windscreen dirty? The Light sensor is in the Rain Sensor.....

Same here, if lights on auto they start after a while when wipers are used.

I thinks it may be the Rain/Light sensor needs fixing or replacing.

I would have thought it normal for lights to come on with wipers. TDV8 HST Sport **Current**

Yes, on my wife's Volvo it's the same, lights start when wipers are used. On my Disco 3 it was also like this so it's not a fault, it's a feature.

mick, i think a little more info is needed here....you say the lights come on when the wipers are on, are we talking side lights only or full head lights, how about when you use your washers and your wipers wipe..do the lights come on.is your light switch set to auto or off..

Lights set to auto position ,Daylight hours , one sweep of the wipers full headlights on , after one sweep of windscreen, wipers off, full headlights off ,

2nd sweep same as the first , sensor and windscreen clean so rules out a dirty screen
