    1995 Range Rover HSE - Some issues to overcome

    Confirmed. Probably my fault for using the wrong mode.. having misread that other forum post, thinking I was looking for a 0.3mA load (I really know nothing about this stuff), I stuck it on 200mA which is probably when it went pop. Just took it apart and indeed there's a little 315mA fuse in...

    1995 Range Rover HSE - Some issues to overcome

    Useful, but duff! Your suggestion of a simple test just proved that. I have a small camping lamp which runs off a battery pack consisting of 4 x 1.5v D batteries. In normal V mode the meter reads 6.13V - all good there. In 10A mode, the bulb lights up and I get a reading of 0.59A which by...

    1995 Range Rover HSE - Some issues to overcome

    I'm thinking of disconnecting it, bringing it indoors and sticking it on a car battery charger for a few hours. Any reasons why I shouldn't do that? Suggestions, pitfalls, perils? :p

    1995 Range Rover HSE - Some issues to overcome

    Tell me if I'm doing this wrong... this is how I have it set (see attached) and it tells me where to connect the leads when they're not plugged in. I always plug the black cable into COM and the red cable wherever else it tells me to (in this case, mA). Even if I have the cables backwards, it...

    1995 Range Rover HSE - Some issues to overcome

    At the moment (it won't start, just clicks, and even the seat seems to be moving slower than normal) it's reading 10.5V

    1995 Range Rover HSE - Some issues to overcome

    None taken! I think I did.. it's a digital multimeter with a dial to control the "mode". Of the several modes, there's only one which displays "mA" on the screen and another which displays "A". I had it in "mA" and connected the multimeter "in-line" between the positive terminal of the...

    1995 Range Rover HSE - Some issues to overcome

    Ah, I was mistaken... So, 9mA really is nothing. Back to square one!

    1995 Range Rover HSE - Some issues to overcome

    Ok - if 9mA is acceptable (I'm sure I read somewhere on here that it should be more like 0.300 mA) why do you think the (brand new) battery might be going flat after a few hours? The electrics all still work, but there's just not enough juice to crank the starter. Maybe I should stop trying to...

    1995 Range Rover HSE - Some issues to overcome

    @Kieronf - That was epic! :D @All - The saga continues. I have today completed my fuse box tests... the multimeter reads 9.5 mA with all fuses still in, the doors closed, ignition off and everything settled down. I removed each and every fuse, from both fuse boxes, one by one. Each time...

    1995 Range Rover HSE - Some issues to overcome

    Sorry for the double post, but some things have changed since posting and approval... Managed to reset the sunroof, so I no longer get this error. Credit goes to this post on landroversonly.com - got it first time after reading that. I had a good old google earlier and found the basic method...

    Just bought my first Land Rover (P38 RR) yesterday

    Hmm... I tried posting in the Range Rover forum this morning about the one or two issues I need a little advice on, but it said something about needing approval. Any idea how often the mods get around to such things? On a more positive note, I just took her for a spin after investigating an...

    1995 Range Rover HSE - Some issues to overcome

    Hello again, As I mentioned in my introduction thread, my recently purchased 95 Range Rover has a small handful of issues I need to overcome, hopefully with your help and advice. First off was a bunch of "Window Not Set" messages popping up, but after a brief search on here last night I was...

    Just bought my first Land Rover (P38 RR) yesterday

    Despite registering on the forum for advice some 4 years ago, until yesterday I haven't actually owned a Land Rover.. always been tempted though. So I've finally succumbed to the bee in my bonnet and bought a 1995 Range Rover HSE 4.6 - needless to say it has one or two issues which I need to...

    Can I disable the TV-screen's kill switch?

    The screen goes blank while driving and I understand the reasons behind this, but I'm rigging up a simple reversing camera for attaching a trailer to the tow-bar solo so I need to be able to manoeuvre with the screen still active. Is this possible? Cheers ;)
