    Squeal and smoke

    I try to do a lot of it on my own. I can make my way around. The biggest noticeable change was the drive shaft and gear box oil leak with the picture I provided.

    There isn't a book and I'm not sure.

    Squeal and smoke

    When I would go at that speed it had a whining. It came too after a couple of times of going at those speeds. It's hard to explain. I could feel it in the shifter I would back off it would go away. Make sense?

    Hav i haven't touched the engine at all except for an oil change. It was imported from Europe.

    How bad is a bearing seizure? And nothing wrong with the belts. Looked underneath.

    Nothing wrong with the belts. And checked fluids. My oil was a little Low but that's about it.

    Squeal and smoke

    I was driving down the highway in my 1990 defender 90 200tdi. I was at about 55-65 mph for 22 miles and all of a sudden it squealed and then smoke came out. Feeling like it came from the trans as I have a lot of oil coming from it more than I had before. Before I had a couple leaks but nothing...

    Earth issue

    Figured it out. There was a loose connection in the back turn signal where all the lights grounds go to AND the switch wires were messing with it as well. The switch itself, the wires were messing up where the stick goes in for the contacts. It is fixed and running smoothly now. Thank you all...

    Earth issue

    Figured out the issue. Didn't think to look at the lights in the back on the same side. Took the turn signal off in the back and the circuit was cut. Neither turn signals would work. I put it back on and the turn signals would work but not with headlights. I will be looking for the earth...

    Turn signal issue.

    I have a 1990 defender 90. RHD 200TDI. I put new RDX tail lights, signals, running lights and side signals in the front. The issue I am having is that when I turn my left signal in it works until I turn on the head lights. When the headlights are on the right side is the only side that works. I...

    Earth issue

    Mention I have a side marker led. I took all the lights and put them in the same place as the other lights for the earths. Leaving the side marker out. But my driver side is the same with no issues. And again same issue. It turns off when the headlights come on. Much appreciated. I think I...

    Earth issue

    Yes but It goes in to the harness that leads to the firewall. There are grounds that come out of the harness that go directly to the vehicle up front here. Where would I find the earth for this harness near the cabin? Here's a better image. Now from that cluster the ground leads to the front of...

    Earth issue

    Yes it has the three connector the original I'm assuming.

    Earth issue

    Alright. Connected the ground on the driver side, the side that works. Still does the same thing. When turning the lights on the signal stops working. Any suggestions now?
  17. Dutchy7

    Earth issue

    Just kidding. Back to square one again. Taking out the lights and reconnecting them to see where the disconnect is. Somewhere on the left side as that's the turn signal not working when the lights go on. It will work when I turn the signal on with lights off and then turn the lights on. There is...

    Earth issue

    Gentlemen. Happy to say it was the signal itself. One of the wires came loose and i didn't notice it. Put it back on and turned things on and it worked. I appreciate all of your help and patience. Thank you all again.

    Thank you gentlemen. I appreciate the help and patience. I will let you know how it goes.

    Earth issue

    Alright I'm completely lost now. So clean up the front end where the lights are at. Check the line coming from the driver side wing to the passenger side wing and ensure that it's working? I would have to check all grounds in the front of the defender as that is where it most likely would be...
