Check your earths including the one from the battery to the chassis and the gearbox and make sure that they are spotlessly clean

If it's instantly blowing the fuse, it's likely to be a dead shot somewhere. If you think it's rear lights, check the wiring where it passes through the wheel arch 'box'. If the grommet had perished, the wires are left to rub on the metal. Then check where the rear loom exits the right hand chassis rail for the same issue. And then where it enters the chassis rail below the bulkhead area.

has it got a tow bar?????

if so have you checked the electrical socket/wiring often overlooked  i.e socket gets packed full of mud moisture gets trapped there then corrosion etc etc

the shinny blue defender with the winch,checker plate body protection,extra seating and windows
and at this point I noticed the n/s air vent wasnt fully closed so lets not forget the mud stained interior and the water logged kenwood 6disc cd
