    And does C223 have a connection into the instrument cluster ? I cant see it but I will look again at the disco 1 loom . I'm happy with what has been achieved so far. It should be a functioning dash. I identified a few more warning lights including the check engine light which is literally...

    I cant locate C223 It looks to be part of disco 1 wiring loom, at the rear of the instrument cluster? On closer inspection of the Disco 1 manual, the instrument cluster diagram has "with SRS and without SRS" pathways. Im wondering if i even have the bulbs now, But not to worry I can connect...

    That's great, I'm actually in Ireland the test here is called NCT. They have a centre's dedicated solely to this. I have a friend working there He said it goes entirely on the chassis number of the vehicle, and if it matches the documents (which it does) I need to "change the body plan"on the...

    I agree this does seem the best and simplest way to go when connecting a 300 tdi engine into a Disco 2 wiring loom. As you can see ,physically, the instrument cluster and binnacles are interchangeable (Disco 1 top of pictures )

    Ive wired in the instrument cluster from the disco 1 remember ? Its a 1996 disco 1 three door van chassis. I dont have abs or ebd hardware in place . According to Mr Haynes wiring diagram I do have ABS warning lights and SRS Indicators 1 &2 so some disco 1's must have had the hardware. So...

If anyone else is brave or stupid enough to take on a similar project It may be a help as similar problems are sure to crop up. I have been wondering just what i did to upset you. I have also gone down...

    disco 1 too disco 2 conversion

    I don't know if its a prerequisite for the inspection (MOT, NCT) to have the cluster lights come on when the ignition key is turned?if i have to become inventive there are some crazy hacks out there. Stephen Fry will have a fit.

    disco 1 too disco 2 conversion

    I swapped the disco 1 brake pedal and servo, master and the equaliser.(And the brake lines) Its good to do this when you take the pedal box out for the throttle cable.(and not after you have everything in place and find out your disco 1 master cylinder will not fit the disco 2 servo.)

The individual warning lights do come on if a circuit is created, but not initially when the key is turned, so not sure whats happening there.I am a dufus its true. God bless. And...
