Well i am about to go running around the land tearing my hair out.
So far this a.m. I have "done" the mod as suggested all over the world of Land Rovers, completed the soldering and then I tested the switches.
Not a fucking thing, on either switch.
To say I am furious is putting it mildly.
So forced to put it all back together with the wires hanging out and meanwhile try to source a new modulator thingy, whil over here but going back to blighty soonish.
I cannot seem to find the YouTube I found the other day which showed how to wire it and then test it. I know I have wired it right and i have tested the wires and the soldering, but no, nowt with both switches up, both down, one up, tother down and vice versa. Nada. i even pierced the wire between them with a needle and connected to that to see if I could get a connection through just one switch but no. It would appear both have gone down at the same time. Which seems mad.
I am worried I am not testing it right, but we need the car tomorrow and rain is forecast for today so I am mightily p!ssed off.:mad::mad::mad::mad:
Jeez do I hate car electrics, or at least modern car electrics.:mad::mad::mad:

.... that my ER32 collet chuck has just arrived on a very slow boat from China (Ordered 23rd March) :)
Quality looks fine, problem is that it is Imperial. I am hoping there is enough wiggle-room for it to work with the plentiful and cheap metric sizes used on a small hobby mill. :)

I have a metric set but imperial stock and that works close enough for me :)
