    Nearside side lights - red/black cable providing no power

    Part 2. So, breaking components down, both the number plate light and rear side draw about 0.5A apiece but the front passenger sidelight draws 1.5A ish. What could cause that? i have tested different earth incl one on the battery to no avail.

    Nearside side lights - red/black cable providing no power

    OK. So latest: Rear sidelight was not working as it was being fused out by the number plate lamp. All now OK at the rear. We now also have the front sidelight working BUT the passenger side circuit is drawing 2.4A where as the driver side is drawing 0.9A. Disconnecting the front pass sidelight...

    Ok. So cleaned up fuse mount. There is 12v across mount, same as for the driver side fuse above. But when I insert a fuse (that has been checked) then voltage drops to 0v. I have swapped fuses around so I know it isn't a fuse problem. Could it be the connection at the rear of the fuse mount?

    I am not sure - think it was a bad connection from a broken fitting. Seem fine now.

    Apologies for vehicle info - 1988 110 w/200TDI Def engine. The wiring diag is amazing. Thanks. I will clean the fuse holder and test with my multimeter after my evening of YouTube training sessions.What could go wrong? I will then try to chase the wiring from the rear nr side across to rear...

    Is there a multi plug on the driver engine bay bulkhead as this may the the issue if there is no power to either end? Or could a short cause this? I hate electrics!

    Actually, a couple of fuses have blown so I think that is OK.

    Without seeming too stupid, how would I use the multi meter to do that?

    Nearside side lights - red/black cable providing no power

    Hi all I have bought an old 110 which needed a bit of TLC. Clutch has been fixed, brakes now working and the majority of the electrical probs fixed. I have one final issue. The nr side sidelights won't work. It isn't an earth issue as the rear brake light works. I have also fitted a new front...

    Hi I contacted them as they make braided flexible brake lines. They’ve just emailed me to tell me they only make flexible Lines! I’ll see what they say. For a beginner it’s a particularly complex routing to try first time out.

    I’ve contacted Goodrich to ask if they can make one up. Tks.

    I ordered the brake line from LP Parts. As can be seen here, NRC7801. Part number 16. A preconfigured brake line. The second image shows what arrived.... That's like phoning Domino's for a pizza and being sent the ingredients. I don't even know what to say to them!

    Hi yes, thought about that and will contact them. Pioneer website looks interesting if only they could get rid of the messaging box! Thanks all

    Oh. Just found the breaking point of the flexible yet non-flexible line. Another on order....Snapped trying to fashion the u-bend on the driver side connection. My fault as I shd have started at that side and worked my way across.

    Just had a re-read of your post and realised that my pipe travels across the front of the body, under the radiator, not across the bulkhead. That would be way too easy. It looks a right PITA to track. God bless LR and their standardised procedures.
