A podger? There's a Kenlowe leccy fan stuck to the back of the radiator. Lord knows where its thermostat bulb is tho. Haven't looked.

Sound advice, cheers. Will attempt rad switch this week then I think.

Thanks James. Top hose was hot so thermostat = fine. New rad incoming then I think. Cheers for the advice.

Yeah, I think you must be right. It's all come about after giving it a bit of a kicking off road. Yep, I am in Berkshire, Reading.

I bought the 88C replacement which is what the manual suggested. As there are cold parts of the radiator I wonder if that is screwed. I'm under a little time pressure to get this done so I'm toying with either flushing it out with a hose in the event that it's sludged up, or just replacing it...

Hi James, Thanks for the reply. I put a new thermostat in. Now the gauge indicates overheating a lot quicker. Over a 10 minute drive at 30-40 it goes up into the red and beyond. The fan does little to reduce this. When stopped, the exchange tank is hot. The thermostat housing is hot. The...

Hi James, Thanks for the quick reply. There's no air con on this one. The viscous fan was switched out for a Kenlowe leccy one. This one comes on at a particular temp but not sure it helps to cool it that much. When the gauge reads hot, would I expect the rad to be hot or cold? Probably cold...

Hello everyone, I was hoping someone might be able to help me. Fairly new to the truck I've got and as such I've been through the Workshop manual wot I downloaded. I recently took my truck up Newmarket way on an offroad course. Got it caked in mud. Since I did that, the temperature...

Hmmm, this didnt work. When wired up like this: Down = always on 1st position up = always on 2nd position up = off Anyone got any further ideas? Thanks, Andy

Yeah apologies. I'm no David Bailey it seems. Really appreciate your notes and confirmation. I'll give it a go this weekend and post back results. Lucas haven't got back to me yet. Cheers, Andy

I found this. I'm going to give it a go. I hope I don't blow up the world in the process: Land Rover Owner • View topic - Wiper Switch Wiring 1 - Green/White 2 - Green/Brown 3 - Brown/Black 4 - Blue/Green 5 - Yellow 6 - Red/Green 7 - Red/Green 8 - Red/Green

These might not be the best pix, but here's a couple of shots which show (half) the connectors: Thanks for your help! Incidentally I've phoned up Lucas to see if they can help. Someone *might* get back to me. Of all the trawling of the net I've done I've not found one person who's clumsily...

Hi, I'm in the process of replacing the "Direction indicator stalk". In removing the three steering column switch multi plugs I've pulled out a number of the coloured wires from the front wiper terminals. There's 8 numbered terminals and the following coloured wires: Yellow/Green White...
