Title: all wired up
Post by: rokcrawlin on February 15, 2006, 23:05:03
Whats red and black and hangs from a landrover ....................answers on a post card please !!!!!!!  
Just had a mates landrover to sort out for the mot the wiring is a nightmare just a few of the problems i had to sort are listed underneath

headlights that worked both beams at the same time .....and no not a bad earth just all wired in red to one side and soldered to the bulb ....almost, and all wired to the otherside in black again all soldered to the bulb almost

an oil light that stays on when the engine is switched off

a hub leak the torry canyon would have been shamed by

a hand brake that was well greased by the oil from the transfer box

2x propshafts that dont need ujs as the sliders are that worn that they double up as them.

a set of lights on the roof that kill the engine when lit and are supplied with power by enough wires to make it look like the national grid has moved in.

And he asked if there was much wrong with it DOOOOOH ! :shock:    ......what do I say  :twisted:   :^o  :-#  any Ideas

Nothing like taking a look at someone else's wiring when it stops working....

looking...

checking the proer wiring diagram...

looking some more...

asking 'Are you positive this worked?'

looking some more and not being able to work how in gods name it ever worked without exploding.
