    p38 fuse box following conversion from petrol 4.6 to diesel 2.5

    just had another look at the fuse box diagram, fuse 23 is srs, and blows as soon as I plug in the drivers side heated screen which is strange because the fuse for the heated screens is fuse 30, so perhaps there is a fault/short within the fuse box

    Hi Grrrrrr, sorry for late reply I haven't had time to do anything else with it at the moment, and will probably be after Christmas now, the latest development is the fuel gauge reading when it feels like, it either shows what's in the tank or needle on the empty stop but I guess as the pump...
