I've just bought my first Landrover.
I have the strange army 6 position switch on an extra mounting in the
centre of the dash. I think I've worked out that moving one position to
the left turns the tail lights on, again to the left does tails and side
lights and finally 3 positions to the left does the tails, sides and
headlights.
But one position to the right does tails (why if ti can be done towards
the left?) second position towards the right does tails and sides (why?)
and finally third position to the right turns on the little convoy light
under the rear cross member and leaves the dash board lights on.
There is a separate switch on the side of this console that seems to
shut all the lights off including the dash lights (why when it could be
done using the main switch? Faster if the enemy is spotted??). There is
another switch on the original dash above the heater switch that shuts
off the dashboard lights alone.
There is yet another square flat black switch on the centre console that
has a red light on it that says test; what does it do?
On the original dash there is an orange light in the top left hand
corner; again what does it do?
Is the wiring code different on military Landrovers and if so where can
I find out what it is (if at all)
This Landrover is also equipped with an oil cooler. Were all MoD
Landrovers fitted with an oil cooler or was it only for vehicles going
to hot countries.
Finally! Is it possible to find out any of its history using any serial
numbers.
TIA
PS What thread are the steering lock stop bolts
