Aux switches not working

[gunguy1972]

I'm having problems with my Factory installed Aux switches looks like no power. No lights on the switches. I checked all the fuses and all are good. Does anyone know if there is a master fuse for the aux switches and where its located?

In case you don't know where the fuse box is, under hood, passenger side, between battery and firewall. Two tabs on sides, push in and lift up cover. Backside of cover has legend with fuse numbers and location. If all those fuses are there, push down on EVERYTHING in there one at a time, probably are not fully seated.

That's the Thread that I used to check the fuses. Was just wondering if a master fuse exists for the whole setup

Each switch is individually fused, along with the switched and always on leads.
They are different ratings for each switch.

So no, no master fuse for the Aux Switches.

Go to your settings screen on the entertainment screen and scroll to switches and see if they are showing up there and in bright letters and not grayed out.

Yes I can access the aux switches from the menu and make changes to them. Checked all fuses that are in the fuse box just not sure what else I can check before it goes to the dealer

Take it to the dealer. Early on there were reports of the switches not being flashed on in the computer.

I hate going to the dealer when I called about it the dealers service manager was clueless as to what I was talking about then he tells me they will need it for at least 2 days. I just laughed

Could it be your auxiliary battery? I had a 2018 2 door JLR that after close to 2.5 years of ownership, I started getting error messages at start up saying auxiliary switches are not available due to low auxiliary battery.

 

[gunguy1972]

Not getting any error messages at all

It sounds like the computer doesn't know they're there.
If you have something you can hook up to one of the leads or an electrical tester, then see if you're getting power and just no button lights.

I did connect up a light bar and no power

Sounds like they're not recognized.

They are recognized because I can manipulate the settings in uconnect but I guess off to the dealer I go

Do you have anything connected to them?

I tried my light bar but no luck
