I’ve just looked at that and discovered a slightly loose and burnt out connection on the back of the barrel which every time I push down on I get power and everything works. So I will now spend the rest of Easter stripping the dash to resolve it and hope that’s the end of my problems. :D

So got it up and running there was a loose cable on the battery that I only found when the connection feel apart. It’s startinng and ideling ok but just cuts out after 10 minuets :mad:

Ideal thanks for that gives me a idea of something to look for when I get around to having a look

Ok I’ll take the seat up and have a look. What colour wires should I have a look for? I’ve just had the coil and ht leads apart and re done a few months ago and was running sweet till recently.

No it doesn’t have a immobiliser. I just went out to try and start it and it started cranking then stopped all while the radio was going :confused:

hi I’m currently having problems with my defender 90 cutting out for no reason. Engine is a 3.9v8 with a auto box. I can be driving down the road and the engine will cut out completely no lights working, but the radio will carry on working as soon as I fiddle around with the passengers seat...

Currently running a 3.9v8 efi engine on a zf auto gearbox out of a disco. Now having a auto is nice and everything but I just can’t seem to get on with it on and off road. I’m thinking of putting a r380 gear box in and getting rid of the auto. Would this be possible or would I have to make a...

Well since baldhu has closed I drove down to have a look and the entrance has to big shipping containers blocking it which is a shame is there any other play and pay sites in Cornwall/Devon? baldhu was the only site I knew of around Cornwall but I could be wrong. Or has it gone away from that...

What high temperature adhesive would you recommend using? There’s quiet a few to choose from.

I’m looking at and trying to find out how people have gone around making their own headlinings from scratch. My roof doesn’t have a sun roof or alpine windows I was thinking of using sound deadining material then a faux headlining material over the top. I haven’t bought any materials yet as...

Installed 4 led light strips today 2 in the front one above the driver and one about the passenger, and 2 in the back in the middle. Was thinking of making up my own head lining out of sound dreading Matt and then putting faux suede over that for my next project, or buying a snorkel and...

Well just ordered 4 of these 30cm long so should offer plenty of light through my cab

I’ve been looking around and thinking about up grading the interior lights in my cab. I currently have the standard interior light and to say it’s usless is a understatement. I’ve been playing with the idea of putting in strip led lights in like these I was also going to run a strip light to...

Another day another few hours tinkering with the wiring this time with out my cat Keith Before I attacked the wiring with heat shrink After words a lot neater than what the previous owner left it Then moved on to hiding this away not sure what I does but I didn’t like the idea of it being...

Fitted led lights may have got abit carried away with the heat shrink. Had my helper aswell with me. The red wires for the fans are the next thing to tackle and also going to have a go at water proofing the fuses with those waterproof electrical boxes you can get for outside plugs. As the last...

Hi I'm currently running 265/75/16 tyres when I’m on hard lock I can hear and feel the wheels catching the chassis which I wouldn’t have though would have been a problem with these tyres . I’m guessing I need wheel spacers? Problem is I have no idea about them or if they would solve the...
