    Unable to bleed brakes (SOLVED) - Custom Brake Thread

    Sorry, never even seen one !! As you have no ABS they are a bit special. Unlikely to be faulty but why not crack the pipes and bleed at that point then reconnect and bleed. See if they have an air lock. This whole saga is a mystery.

    fuse 41 or 42 for alternator

    And why you have 42 fuses ?!?!?

    fuse 41 or 42 for alternator

    I haven't got 40 plus fuses in the fuse box anyway on mine !! 1. Plugging in a fuse when there isn't one is dodgy and could cause a fire. It may have been removed for a reason or is not fitted to your model. 2. Plugging another fuse in still won't tell you whether it is charging or not. Have...

    fuse 41 or 42 for alternator

    Voltmeter across battery and start it up. 12 ish Volts before starting. 13.5 to 14.5 when running.

    Mine have now bedded in. I believe that short notice hard braking appears to be better. Should have done distance check on an emergency stop before and after the change of discs.

    You can also get telecopic free standing step ladders. Not as cool I grant you, but you would be able to move them around the vehicle.

    You can get collapsible step ladders as used by estate agents and surveyors. https://ebay.us/m/ktU54j

    You'll need the rear door ladder. Oh dear, F2 has no wheel bracket. Time to design a ladder mount for an F2 ??

    The trailer indicator lamp is only fed from the flasher unit, or should be! Do you have a tow bar and a 4 pin flasher unit? If not then there is defo a false feed coming from somewhere. Do you mean relays in dash or engine bay?? Will have a 'feel' of my relays. Ooh er...... Ps. Happy Birthday...

    Freelander 1 TD4 rear Diff oil Seal

    Easier to remove link arms from subframe end. Long bolt through hub rarely moves without cutting! Then beware of flexi brake hose but suspension leg pulls out enough to disconnect driveshaft from diff.

    Diagnosis based on Symptoms please

    If the engine light has lit once, there should be a code stored to read. This will direct you better than changing parts randomly.
