I have no idea of what the 2 fuses are connected to the battery - whats the best way to find out? I think you are bang on with the previous owner and doing their own mods! I've taken the door card off, and checked the wires between the door and...

A few more pictures for you - I've followed the wires from the windows, back to the centre console, to which I can see 2 relays (circled in green). Do they ever malfunction? I'm getting a reader tomorrow, so I'll be able to take some readings -...

Thats great - thanks for that Anaconda 👍

Pictures attached! :)

Thanks for coming back guys - lunch time job I'll check the switch for the passenger side. Is it a simple case of prising them off?

Hi there, No there isnt any central locking yet - but that makes sense with regards to those wires. So the drivers electric window is still working, so I went through the passenger fuses one by one and to see if the windows had separate fuses...

Hi All, Another questions from the newbie - fingers crossed you wise owls can point me in the right direction! The electric windows were working fine, and then the other day the passenger front decided to stop working and won't go back up. I...

You’re right! I’ve gone through all the fuses - not one for the electric windows! Thinking note they must have put it to a relay! 😬

<smile> can't wait to see what happens when I take it through water - will that help the footwells drain out too. :D

This one: But still unsure of what is what as originally it didnt come with electric windows, but one of the past owners have put them in. Though had been looking at this to for the fuses: link here It would suggest fuses F34 and F35, but...

Always a relief when someone who knows what they are looking at says its ok! :)

Hi All :) Finally managed to give the TD5 a proper wash on the exterior, underneath and engine bay. So 2 things that I have noticed since doing this! 1. Water leaking through the footwell. Notice the mats were wet, then what looks like a bolt...

I was talking about this on the foot well edges… ‘So ours not some underseal that has been put on heavily with a brush? 🤞’

So ours not some underseal that has been put on heavily with a brush? 🤞

Also forgot to mention - when looking under I also noticed this on the footwell. Any ideas what work has been done on it?

So whats the best one to use?

Finally managed to get the power washer under it today... still so much missed! Any tips that dont involve me under it with a pressure washer, or is it on my back with a brush? Also saw this today with regards to undersea - looks very cool...

Great advice - cleaned the engine bay and under today... so able to watch whats going on now. Though after it all dried out saw this - any ideas?

Really good point! So after a good clean up, start the engine up stationary for 15/20 mins and see whats happening/any leaks?

Thats great feedback - thank you. Are they all fairly simple(ish) jobs? Or are any more of a pig than another? Also the year of the 90 is 1999 if that helps?

Thinking on I've bought a new seal for the crankshank pulley, and clean it all down this weekend along with the other 'oily' bits, which fingers crossed will help see things more clearly! But if anyone has thoughts on the oil leak around the...

Thats great advice - thank you. I'll give that a try this weekend, though I may giv you a shout if struggling on here if thats ok?

Hi All, So when checking under the bonnet today for oil - when i closed it and gave the final push down for it to fully close, it took more than a few attempts for to go down. Any suggestions what I can do, so I'm not spending 15 minutes trying...

Hi All, Noticed two drops of oil on the drive today. So had a look under the engine and one is coming from the sump - so need a new plug there (suggestions/links welcome). The second leak, is a little more! I've taken pictures from underneath...

Ideally yes.

Thanks for the above - so when you protect the underneath of the 90, do you cover it everywhere? Obviously not the engine/wheels - but the axles, bottom of the cabin, footwells etc?

Hi Anaconda, It's when he's took the top of the TD5 - Wiring harness into the injectors - Change rubber gasket I've also heard that if you have the top off to also change plastic dowels to metal ones - would this be correct? Also is there a...

Why do I have the feeling that buying this Landy I may never take the family away on holiday again! :) Also what do you think of this advice?

Would these be any good for the doors and boot? https://thomasperformance.co.uk/security/defender-90-bombproof-2-door-hinge-anti-theft-guard?srsltid=AfmBOorpGu1sMaBLP9kJKarWXMUXy_KN0uB3gat9bHSgopFNfepgX2RtA4M

And you can do that in/on the engine?
