Mine went today and it was F25 , a 10amp fuse. Solved the problem. Maybe a different fuse in Australia, although you wouldn't think so. My 7.5 as above is for the interior lights, F17.

Thanks for that, will give it a shot if a new harness doesn't cure it.

If the harness is the issue, and it was my initial thought as well, oil can get into the ECU. I would take it out and stand it plug side down overnight on some paper towel and see if any oil comes out it. You can open it up as well, but I’ve...

If there’s any oil in ecu, it needs the injector loom replacing and clean ecu port best you can

The injector loom is in the top of the engine underneath the rocker cover, it's easy to change.

Don't know but you might aswell change it being pretty cheap.

Sounds good & the sealed one looks like a godsend. Presumably, the residual oil in the harness from the injector loom to the ECU isn't to much of a problem? And i cant figure out why the problems only show up when warm & not from cold.

Thanks for that, Is the injector loom one piece to the ECU or is it broken down into several sections? Not a massive amount of oil in the ECU port or plug but already cleaned that out with Brake cleaner & Electrical contact cleaner.

Afternoon all! Got an odd one here, 2003 Defender TD5 with 260,000 miles on it & up to now, pretty much trouble free. Fault that has developed recently is as follows. Starts great & runs fine on all five for about 15Min until it starts to warm...
