Stalk switch failure
It seems LandRover was too cheap to do the job right. The stalk switch contacts fail routinely. There is too much current going by.
The smart thing is to rewire with 2 relays where the stalk switch controls the appropriate High/Low relays and the relay handles the current.
Easy for me to say because I know how to do it.... but really, it's not that hard

Ok update
I just received the new stalk switch ... Perfect runs great every thing is working great thanks guys .
Ok so looking back on it the wife and I were out on a drive one night stopped for a bit then the low beams would not come on so we drove home with high beams this should have been a sign that it was going out.
Also I have a Haynes manual for the rover and it shows a relay. I now know that the the wiring diagram is in correct.
Once again thanks for all the great help every one .
