Started the scrapper. Bit odd.

Reconnected battery and everything worked again! Tried to start and everything went dark again. Tried a jump lead from battery negative to engine and even battery positive to starter positive but no change. Disconnected battery negative, waited 3 minutes and then reconnected. All lights back on and then this time it cranked so I just kept cranking until it started and then floored it until the birds started coughing in the hedge. After that it idled perfectly.

Best I can find is "supply for air suspension"?
I know theres a relay in the boot fuse box for the compressor.

Does it not show anything on the lid, I have not looked at mine tbh.
Its a bit wierd that LR give details in the owners manual for the glovebox & boot fuse boxes, but say it needs a technician to look at the underbonnet 1.

Park it front end in with the steering cocked right over. They won't get it then

Always plenty of space in the electric parking bay

The l322 onwards is pretty much electric anyways, just needs a hunking 4.4 v8 to power the alternator

I was a bit cross at lunch when I saw an old Vauxhall Corsa in the electric parking bay at my local Sainsbury's at lunch time. I assumed it was there because it's right by the shop door and all the parent and disabled bays were occupied with trades vans. Looking at the point you're making here Kermit, I should actually be ok to park mine there in future, it'll be good for the environment too as it probably weighs less than an electric MG . I am cross no more.

Took the Golden Girl to the plastic surgeon today. Mirrors and some minor touch ups for next month and a less minor bumper respray as some ass decided to scuff right across the n/s/f . Also a few more bits as jobs for the winter, when both he and I are not so busy...
