I have a 2005 TD5 with all extras at that time. The quiry I have is I am installing front spots to the bull bar surround. On my dash I have one vacant position for a switch which is the push push type. I am wondering before i start striping out dash would this already be pre wired in the lume as all the other positions are taken (heated seats, screens etc). Any info would be grately appreciated.

Mines got it in the loom, pull the blank out have a look
No Defenders are factory pre-wired for Spotlights/Driving Lights.
The Spot Lights Wiring Harness is part of the Genuine Parts Lamp Kit, or is available separately as an 'Auxiliary Wiring Kit', which includes the switch - YUG000540LNF
For Defender 2002 onwards, the Auxiliary Wiring Kit is Part Number – STC53208

If you're going to just use YUG000540LNF and make your own loom, be aware that this switch is designed to switch the earth side of a relay and the illumination and 'tell-tale' will not work properly if used any other way.
The Black Connector for YUG000540LNF should be wired as follows -
Pin 1 - From Relay Earth - Terminal 85
Pin 2 - Live from Dash Illumination (to illuminate Green LED)
Pin 3 - Not Used (but internally connected to Pin 4)
Pin 4 - To Earth
Pin 5 - Live in from Relay output - Terminal 87 (to illuminate Orange 'tell-tale' LED)
Pin 2 - Live from Dash Illumination (to illuminate Green LED)
Pin 3 - Not Used (but internally connected to Pin 4)
Pin 4 - To Earth
Pin 5 - Live in from Relay output - Terminal 87 (to illuminate Orange 'tell-tale' LED)
I've drawn a diagram showing how it should be wired -

Cracking drawing Paul
Thanks Paul for going to so much trouble. This has definitely made my life alot easier. A really good and easy to understand drawing. (You are not an auto sparkie by any chance!!) Most probably will be making my own circuit up as where I'm based the only landrover dealer is 300 miles away.
Once again thanks very much.
