thanks mick

Im in cheshire. Sorry for my inexperience but if i could do the job in twenty minutes i would, believe me.

ok, thanks for all of the advice. How much does the lt77 box take in oil?

Ok, could do with finding the same stuff though because it only needs topping up. Long way off being due a change

Its clear as far as i can tell, think the brown tinge is dirt. Should be fairly clean though as the box was changed less than 5000 miles ago. Am i right in thinking atf is red?

Just checked my gearbox oil and its slightly low. Am i right in thinking that the oil is MTF-94 to top it up with? Its a 200tdi box, i think it is an LT77, with the reverse at the top left, is that correct? many thanks

Thats great, thanks for the help. If i connect the winch with a jump pack or leads, do i need to connect to earth and power input and still use the remote to control? or just to power input and a control direction?

Hi there, put a post on here a while back about my winch, having tried all of the ideas i thought i would give it one final shot. I have power reaching the remote socket and the winch, however nothing happens when i use the remote, no winding in or out. All of the cables are connected ok etc...

cheers for your help james, much appreciated

Does anyone know if the dash surround, inc warning lights on dash from a td5 will fit my 1987 200tdi? Ie will the plugs fit on the back of the warning lights? cheers

Yeah its not exactly down the road. haha. i have a reading from the socket to which the remote connects of 12.6volts so the remote is getting power, also have tested the remote and that works?? thanks again for the help

cheers for all your advice guys, im in cheshire if anyone can help me out. In answer to the questions there is no clicking or anything from the solenoids. Have checked all the connections earths etc as i have just replaced the winch bumper, all seem fine. So maybe i should give the clunk and...

cheers for the help, not planning on taking my bulkhead out so you think it would be easier to patch? maybe a bit tricky to get at with the bulkhead etc in place

Finally ordered myself a voltmeter to try and sort my winch. Nothing still. there is power getting to the remote control socket, checked all my connections and switch on remote, fine, but still no power going to the winch. How do i go about checking the solenoids? any other ideas? many thanks, ali

Hi there folks, finally got round to sorting my rusty bits, sending bits off for powdercoating etc. Iv got a pretty nice hole coming in my passenger footwell, on the angled piece at the bottom of the bulkhead. Just wondered if replacement panels can be bought? or does it need patching? or...

ok mate, thanks for all your advice. Heading out to have a play with it now

Ok mate, thanks for your help, il give every connection a check and see if i can get to the bottom of it. had all of the connections off the winch itself today and cleaned them. Could it be a problem with the control?

no clunks or clicks at all. I mean the arm on top of the winch which allows me to select in, clutch, or out options. When should the solenoid click?

Hi there, have had my landy a couple of months now, when i got it the winch worked fine but since then i havent used it. Came round to using it today and it doesnt work, DEAD, have checked, cleaned and WD'd all of the connections and still no joy, its not had a dunking or anything like that just...

A fiat panda is a small 4 seater fiat produced in the early 90's, also available in 4 wheel drive :):) Portals are axles which have drop gears at each end allowing the diff to be higher than the centre of the wheels, thus giving around a foot of ground clearance, maybe more. They are usually...
