Can anyone ID this part? Think it comes from the steering column area (but not 100%) . Neither of us can remember taking it off when we were taking all the fascia etc off. Thanks in advance

Happy New Year - a final post on this thread. As said yesterday, we found a weirdness happening with the rear lights. On the light switch the rear LH LED lit up as it should, but rear RH light was showing the brake level of light. No response from either light to the brake pedal. Fuse was ok. To...

Continued to puzzle over this issue - went to YouTube and found this v helpful video by Britannica Restorations Ltd This is EXACTLY what was going on with ours before I took the dash light bulb out to stop the problem. We did have a repeater lamp out when we problem 1st came up..... We picked...

Hmmmm - took a photo of the relay by the fuses, and it appears it *is* a WIPAC LED relay. OH is adamant he didn't fit it when he did the LED light switch. Have already ordered a new one so will fit it and see if the dash light issue gets resolved. Otherwise will go the dash light earth fix route.

Ok - point taken. Do we need a relay at each LED light or just in each indicator, brake, side light circuit somewhere? Still curious as to why has it all worked without an issue for 4 plus years?

Hi - no we don't have a relay. The LED set was purchased from an LR outfit (eg Paddocks or similar) and was sold as direct plug and play for each light, no mention of resistors/relays etc required.

Having just gone through quite a bit of detective work with our own Defender and indicator woes - one of the issues with LED indicators with models that have the single indicator warning light on the dash is that this causes a malfunction of the indicators. To get around it you can...

As has been mentioned a few times, plus is discussed on other LR fora,this issue does seem to be a peculiarity of fitting LEDs to the Defender that has the single dash indicator light that illuminates whichever side is activated. It's just curious that it only came up recently, given we've had...

Hi - everything works as it should now, but only if the dash light is removed. We have LED indicators, side lights and rear lights/brake lights. The headlamps and side repeaters are original filament type.

No - the repeaters were left as the original filament lamps.

Slowly putting everything back together now. Had a good clean and refasten of the main earth points on the chassis and gearbox. Made no difference to the issue of all indicators going and dim dash light with left turn on stalk applied. Did a good check of all the wires coming off the back of the...

No earth at front as far as we could discover - all those earths come back to the bullhead on ours.

Have taken off the bulkhead earth, cleaned and refitted. Made no difference to the 'dim light' issue. No do not have an LED earth fix - never had any issues prior to the indicator circuit blowing it's fuse last month. We have LED indicators (not repeaters) brake lights and side lights - not...

Looking at this wiring diagram posted on another LR forum I think this points to a problem with the wiring to and from the Hazard switch via the dash lamp - maybe some chaffing along the route

Ok - Hope everyone had a good Christmas Day and Boxing Day is going swimmingly.. Because this whole electrickery conundrum has been driving us NUTS over the last 48hours, today we did a bit of elimination and tested teh hazard switch - everything tested ok so the hazard switch is ok. Took...
