That’s ok thank you :) my mate drew me several diagrams until it finally went into my head. I’ve just been setting out the relays and fuse block in the container I’m going to replace with something sturdier in preparation for wiring it all together… once I’ve got the spade connectors that I...

Thank you again for all the help and advice :) I got a friend of mine who knows more about electronics to explain where the diode would need to be, slowly and with pictures, so I’m happy that I’ve got that nailed down, I’ll throw a diode in anyway, just to be extra safe. I’ve got a fuse block...

Ok, hopefully the last stupid question :) (and thank you for the advice so far) so, I find the wire that feeds the shutter and use that to activate the coil on the relay that switches the light bar on, where does the diode fit into this, your previous answer says across the relay, but in...

Well, that shows how much attention I’ve been paying so far. It is indeed a shuttered system on the lights, so I’ll have to work out which wire controls that. As for switching, it’s more for a personal choice than anything, plus, who doesn’t like having switches and buttons to press :)

Nothing like a computer to make things tricky lol Going to go stick my head under the bonnet to have a proper look now, as far as I know the headlights are LED but use 2 separate “bulbs” altho it’s possible it uses a shutter, again with the stupid question tho, what’s the diode for?

Hi all, I have a stupid question to add to this. I’m looking at fitting some LED light bars to my 2013 Freelander 2 SD4 GS, I was hoping to be able to take the feed for the relay from the cabin interior so I can easily put a switch in (as someone else has stated they need to be isolated as they...

Did you resolve this problem? I was fitting a set of roof bars yesterday and managed to shear off a bolt in the rear near side stud, I took the stud out but was unable to cleanly extract the bolt, my next plan was to try and drill a hole and tap a new thread in one of the studs I’d replaced at...
