Yes sounds plausible — although it’s the kind of thing I’d expect a mechanic to check when they were setting up a new clutch. The guy who did it is experienced and trustworthy. Would you expect it to be done at the same time? Maybe I’m wrong. Thanks for replying.

Hi everyone. My clutch went a couple of weeks ago (1993 110 200TDi). It started slipping slightly and within about 30 miles I had almost no power. The vehicle had to be recovered to the local Land Rover workshop. They replaced the clutch with a heavy duty one and checked everything else. All...

Thanks. I’ve never used the Lucas connectors so no I didn’t recognise them. That approach sounds good and makes sense. Do I need a special Lucas crimping tool or is it a standard one, please? IGNORE THIS — I just saw the link to the tool from the eBay page you linked to! The camera came with...

Thanks. It’s for an Optimill reversing camera, the one that replaces the rear number plate lamp. This is the closest place. The camera came with a little harness for tapping into the reversing lamp power connector but I can’t see anything in that bundle of wires that looks like it’s designed to...

Thank you

Hi. I’m trying to identify the wires that go to the reverse light in my 1993 110. Is it the black wire(s) going through the hole I’ve arrowed in this picture please? (I’m assuming there’s a standard hole for it to go through but if not I would be glad to know! I’m trying to find the right wire...

Hi. I’ve just bought one of the Optimill reversing cameras with a clip-on rear view mirror monitor. Fitting the camera should be pretty easy but I’m not sure about powering the monitor. Any advice about the easiest route to get from the mirror location to a switched live? Ideally I’d rather not...

Thanks -- those are useful links. Do you have a link/pic for the brass crimp connectors please?

Yes, exactly right. It's a 200Tdi. Thanks, that's helpful. I agree. The hard bit is knowing where to start! It feels a bit all or nothing -- either I fiddle away with individual wires and try to replace them one at a time (which will get really messy with other existing wires in place), or I...

Thanks. Yes, loads of Scotch block connectors. I think there's every kind of wire connector you could imagine. I'd love to know why they did it like this but I doubt I'll ever find out. In that comment you mentioned above does crimpset mean those tubes where you push wires into them and squash...

Just one big fan. Thanks again -- will report back in due course...

Thanks. That's what I was wondering. I'm guessing it would be OK to go for a short drive to warm it up without knowing if the fan is working or not? No risk as long as I keep an eye on the temperature gauge, right?

Thanks. Do you have any advice about what diameter of wire to use for replacements, please? Is there one specific gauge or something that is the 'right' choice for everything that ISN'T a high current connection? (although I appreciate that a fan could be a higher current) I can't go by what's...

It’s like some kind of electrical nightmare. This was the battery compartment before we started…

Thanks. Yes got a multimeter and also a basic car electrics probe thing. I haven’t yet worked out how to test continuity from behind the dash to in the engine bay — the meter leads aren’t long enough! Is there a trick to that? Make up a long cable with croc clips on?? Yes I think you’re right...
