After 3 year rebuild, got to the point today of trying to start the engine, Defender 200tdi......but no go! New starter and battery turns motor strong. I suspect it is a fuel issue as no fuel from bleed screw when bleeding the filter or to fuel pump in-line. Lift pump firms up but nothing after...

Hi and Merry Christmas! Hooking up my heater box after rebuild and can't recall cable control set up. 2 cables from hot/cold & up/down switch (right sided control) and 1 cable from fan speed side (left side control). Where doe the cable from the fan speed switch go??....doesn't make any sense as...

Completing my rebuild. Plugging back electrics and was going great until no indicators. No relay clicking. Wondering where she might be. Here are some pics. My fuse panel looks particularly 'relay sparse'.

Hi I have read lots of threads but it remains unclear if I should remove the input gear from the transfer case prior to dropping it from LT77. All linkages are disconnected with just the bolts to the gearbox left to remove. I did read the gear should be removed from the back of the case by...

OK, last wiring question (for this week). Loose end with bullet connector. Comes off main loom behind instrument panel. Don't know if belongs engine side or dash side. Looks black (main) and slate but cannot find this combo in diagram. Black/white only but don't know if there is a corresponding...

Behind dash I have a bullet block with lots of mainly white wires exiting, see attached. My gut feeling is they are redundant and weren't labelled at tear down. Can some kind soul confirm? Also, can that just be left if redundant or is the exposed bullet pin live and likely to cause a fire...

After consulting numerous+++ diagrams, can you help me out with this? It may be obsolete as I have an autosparks harness but it could be useful too! As you can see from the label, it got away from me during the disassembly. Defender 200tdi.....

Putting this back in after 18 months of distractions! Just plumbing in the lines. Which is the front washer and which is the rear motor? Thanks in advance.

Had the dreaded clutch pedal to the metal a month ago. No evidence of fluid leak. Reservoir was empty though. I thought I'd replace both slave and master cylinders and do some engine bay tidying up. However, clutch line sheared off trying to release the master banjo nut so now I need a new line...

Heading to work this am in 200tdi 110. Trucking along at 40-50mph and went over slight/gentle depression in road. Well it sent the steering wheel crazy and I thought I was going to lose it. Like an alignment speed wobble but way worse. I slowed right down before I ended up in the curb and...

When I did my restoration a couple of years back I decided to go the rock slide route like these: http://www.extreme4x4.co.uk/acatalog/DEFENDER_ROCK_SLIDERS.html I have been 'told' the kids need side steps (!) so I am considering these: Defender 110 - Fire and Ice Style Side Steps I don't have...

I know Defenders had 5mm glass thickness then later 4mm but what is the thickness of Series door glass? I need to know as I need to replace the window channels in my Defender (with 4mm glass). The channel for series comes in 2m lengths for 3 quid, the channels for my defender cost 30quid per...

I thought I'd get away with using my rock sliders to get into vehicle following my build but as time has gone on I definitely need steps. Lifting the kids in the back is acceptable, but I draw the line at lifting the pregnant wife in! I need to know if the genuine SVX type step uses the same...

Confirmation needed. Are the red/white wires for dash lights, ciggy lighter illumination etc power off the ignition. Need to splice in my stereo and the obvious is ciggy lighter illumination. Don't have my wiring diagram handy. Ta

I burned the beejeezis out of the small loom to the back of the interior light/gauge light switch and need a replacement. Part number PRC5679. Not available since 2001 apparently. Craddocks told me to make one. Out of what was my thought. Anyway, female connector plug to back of switch is 5...

Just fitted Mud dash console. Needing to connect spade connectors to back of ciggy lighter/ rear screen wiper button but lost SD card with pics showing what wire goes where. Don't have it in front of me but 4 terminals on back of lighter if I recall. Simple pic of connections would be nice if...

Hello After cooking portions of my main loom it now has to be replaced (thanks to a poxy short at the fag lighter- bloody smokers!). It is on order from Autosparks including a separate instrument harness. I am planning on plugging it into the chassis loom and engine bay harnesses that currently...

After getting some electrical glitches seen to, this morning I had toxic plastic smoke come billowing out from the steering column of my 110 TD/200tdi :eek: After clearing my lungs, I was able to get it back to the same crowd for another overhaul. They are top guys with an outstanding...

I have no 'P' or 'BRAKE !' warning lights illuminating on my dash and it just failed a BC provincial inspection following import because of it. I noticed I have no wire on the PDWA valve in engine compartment- Is this the culprit? (If not, what is the sender on the valve for?). Ta Defender...
