errrr...is this your first Land Rover????

Most often it is from the Sunroof, the Ill fitting Door seals, the badly designed Tailgate Seal, the roof joints, the pretty much anywhere there is a join!

you name it it will leak and that includes the pipes to the heater!

Yeh i had a mk1 escort and had to drill holes in it

looks like any rover then saint , my MGZR leaked like a whore at a stag night , sealed the sunroof up and it was good , well apart from the new head gasket and modified cooling system that had to be done , well its a rover its expected .

what about a little petroleum jelly on all the electrical connections to help prevent corrosion is this a good thing . :behindsofa:

May be a monster plaster aswell

Forgive my stupidity. I have searched the forums, web, and RAVE manual and still can't locate these plugs. I am have a similar problem and I am hopeful that maybe this may be my issue as well.

After a little digging I figured it out. For anyone else wondering, this connector is located on the drivers side behind the plastic housing that the hood release is encased in. Just lift the plastic cover for the foot rest and there is a single screw. Remove that and then the lever to release the hood and you'll see this connection.
