Still going! I've removed all the bits apart from the steering wheel, removed an air vent and have soldered some chewed wires, but we have a leaky roof and theres water coming down the wires possibly into the back of the driver fusebox. Can't start her up to test if the soldering has worked...

Thanks @Jayridium ! I'll have a crack at that on Saturday Thanks also for the RAVE file - I've followed instructions, but Windows seems to think it's a malicious file when I open the iso and run Rave.exe, I'm sure I'll find a way round it tho!

Thanks Nodge, appreciate the answer - You're right, when the car is in manual or sport mode, we have no idea what gear she's in. I think I've seen the instructions for removing the dash - Seems fairly easy after the steering wheel is off. I can reach the nibbled wires with my hand just above...

Oooo. Nice to get some technical terms :) Always better to know the name of the thing you're trying to get at, now I don't have to call it the 'wiring thing behind the glovebox'! I've bought myself some lovely car wiring reels and some little heatshrink tubes, I just don't want to break any...

Thanks - I guess it's the trim that I don't know how to remove - I have pulled out the removeable glove box, but can't access it without some sort of endoscope and some very skilfullu used long tools... I don't know where the right trim parts to pull/lever/unscrew are. I'm going through the...

So my shopping list for this job so far is a 2 dogs and a Haynes manual. One of those I have, the others I'm not allowed in a rental house. :)

I have found the chewed wires - See photo in post :) What I don't know is what to take apart to get there! Wondering if there is anything else behind the glove box that someone has serviced and can tell me what bits to rip off and where!

I think I'm getting the gist of this forum. I just went down a rabbit hole looking for info about diagnostic kits and found myself learning about an airfield in Lincolnshire.

Patterdale eh? Interesting. Are they any good with a spanner?

Well, it was in the car actually. It had a chew on some wires behind the passenger glove box. Now we have no rev counter, no engine temp gauge, and weirdly, only half the red LED's on the automatic gearstick display work. I've trawled the forum with a few different search terms, but can...

Hi all, I'm Mike. I live near Frome, Somerset. We have a Freelander TD4 so far, getting a Disco 3 TDV6 soon, and thinking of a Defender 300 Tdi for doing a Cape to Cairo if the world gets a little less bonkers next year. Learning the basics by using the td4 for tinkering, and going to need a lot...
