Cracked the headlight issue, there is a fuse block near the heater box on the bulkhead. Had a hard job finding it as it wasn't fixed!!! There is 3 fuses in there, 1 x 30A that had blown and was the source of the light failure! and 2 x 60A, one of which has blown but i can't find anything not...

Ive replaced the speedo cable and the actual speedo, still does it! Looks like the bit that goes into the box is knackered. By all accounts a dodgy speedo isn't an MOT failure so i'll just live with it. Not like its gonna be breaking many speed limits!

The fuses are blade type ones. I don't know where the Dim/Dip relay is i'm afraid, theres 2 yellow ones by the fuses and I think some more behind the fuses. Is there likely to be anything under the bonnet, i.e. a dim/dip relay? I assume a Dim/Dip relay is just a change over type relay? As you...

Just had to cancel todays MOT as I have no light at all....Front rear, side lights, dip and also the instrument panel doesn't illuminate! Main beam flash does work though? Yesterday I was checking it over ready for MOT, everything worked, switched on rear fogs and they worked ok. Went in the...

If you need to run multiple wires get some 7 core tow bar cable, it won't be the same colour codes but makes life easier.

V8Geoff, think i've cracked it. Disconnect the blue and yellow wire that i wired to the side lights. White wire connected to the live feed for the dip beam. When engine running DRL's light up. Switch side lights on and DRL's remain the same brightness. Switch main lights on and DRL's brightness...

Feckity feck, disconnected the blue and yellow, left the white still there but the connector has now come off the back of the halogen bulb. Tried it again and it still doesn't work.....looks like the headlight will need coming out again and a more in depth investigation will take place but not...

Followed your lead and looked at a few YT clips. I'm wondering if its either white to dip light feed OR the others to the side lights but not both..... May have to try and find some time tomorrow to have a play!

I went to the site I bought them from and after a bit of looking found the following. I can't understand why you would take the red back to the battery, that would mean the controller is live all the time, i picked up a switched live, perhaps thats throwing it! Looking at the diagrams I've...

I was trying to work out the logic. If there is a +ve on either of the side lamp wires (yellow or blue) i assumed this would trigger something in the controller to dim the DRL's or turn them off. I wired the width lamp wire to the dip headlight feed and assumed if that was the trigger to dim or...

Mmmmm, so Width Lamp is the same as side lamp, but they already have a wire going to the side lamp (right and left)?

Wired in some DRL's today along with a headlight upgrade/rewire. All is working ok except the dim of DRL's when sidelights/main dip lights are used. I followed the diagram on the relay/controller but confused about the white wire going to the Width Lamp. Blue and yellow was teed to the...

Story of my life, there's always something better/cheaper/easier to fit.....just after i've purchased mine ;)

Thanks again, i've attached the pic of the screw, i've also added a youtube clip I found last night, its not the same but it gives an idea about fitting the chrome ring to the headlamp. DRL Headlight upgrade on Land Rover Defender 2012 - YouTube

Thanks for that Marmaduke, that was a great help, think i've worked it out now. There is one large screw that I assume goes at the bottom of the chrome ring and in to the bowl? Hopefully you can see it in the pic? Does the pics look right to you? the only thing is the grommet for the wires to...

Decided to upgrade my headlights from the old sealed beam units and re=wire them as well. The original bowls aren't worth using again so I decided to go and get some new ones. Got the new ones home and can't work out how they fit together, there's no manual to read or anything. I've attatched...

I would but don't fancy jailbreaking my device :(

Its been a while since i had to buy oil for a vehicle Now i have an 87 LR90 with a 200tdi engine i've had to start 'topping it up' and can't believe the price of the stuff from my local garage. A 5L can is anything from £20-25 so this seems a half decent price, just need to think of where I can...

Put a meter across the pins and switch it until you get a short?
