Hi Mates, I must be going mad here or Ebay vendors for Landy electric conversion kits are. I have a 1997 2 door 300tdi station wagon. I have to convert the windows to electric but everyone seems to be contradicting them selves or have no idea about models, years and types. I installed a kit on...

https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/200-tdi-not-starting-new-to-defenders-but-im-certainly-learning-how-to-work-on-them.322367/ You do not need to change the barrel, either replace the switch or you can try servicing it.

Its a legal and safety requirement that all the park lights remain on without the key, the hazard lights also. In the event you broke down on the highway or any place where the vehicle has to be visible and being left on its own, you must be able to leave these lights on independently.

You might think its happy, its not. Not because its not smoking (as yet) and not missing a beat, they are well built..the older ones mostly but running oil for 30K miles is hurting the engine. It does not check acidity, the OBC calculates the mileage driven and fuel consumption to establish an...

I will install mine to energize with the ignition switch in series with a photo cell, it will have an override using the stock switch. Its not that I am lazy, but my memory is crammed and I am used to not touching any light switches in my cars :) I just bought an older VW Buggy to restore and...

A buzzer is easier but why not wire the light relay energizing coil to the ignition wire....so once your turn off the engine and take the key out the lights will be off? I will be doing this with mine soon.

One of the suspects to your issue..happy you got it fixed.

Here is the other NA supplier I got some wing vents from, they were fast and easily reachable https://www.lucky8llc.com/

There are a few outfits in the US.. Rovers North being one http://www.roversnorth.com/Land-Rover-Parts/110 You can use ebay too for small stuff like this but yiu need these early. There are more land rover outfits, i will send some more links later...there is one i bought some fender grills...

Look at my name LOL and you can see why I am here in my profile.. we all joke here..or most do anyways..thats half the fun. :D I love Europe..wish it was like back in 2000 when I toured 8 countries in 3 months.

Even if its the switch being faulty, its not a big deal..just a bit of effort and time..tools too.Yes I know DST is in effect too for NA. Most of the guys on this site are from the UK, Aus and NZ so during this time you wont get many replies except for guys like myself who are on the EST zone...

You should be able to get access to the switch with only the upper and lower steering column covers off.

Yes it could be that you have unplugged the ignition wire, they were pretty loose on both my 110's when I looked at them. See if you can post a pic of what you have for a dash. Here is a few pics of the ignition switch when i cleaned and serviced it and modified it to use grade 8.8 bolts.

You will have to remove the upper and under side of the cover and also the binnacle and lift the instrument cluster off too....see the pic of mine below, but that is with the entire dash stripped out. You will see some small screws holding the binnacle, be careful not to break it, its easy to...

I had a 110 200TDI on which I installed a Safari snorkel kit, seems like yours the same. IIFC, I cut a cardboard template to install 3 rivet nuts and that was it for the fender part, so you will have the rivet nuts to contend with. I Then drilled holes in the windshield frame and tapped it for...

I stripped mine as much as I could (97 110) it had minimal rust, use wire brush, sander and buffer..all air tools and then painted with a paint called red oxide primer and then black high temp enamel for overall protection. The Red Oxide Primer is what they paint I and H steel beams for...

Exactly.

I intend to James, its so much cheaper to change the oils and other fluids to keep the entire landy happy and wear down to a minimum as opposed to costly repairs. The island here is smallish but still the constant stop and go is hard on the engine, gearbox and so are the oils too. I have a...

Do check the spade connectors on the ignition switch 4 terminals. I used a long nose pliers on the males to give them a slight kink..note slight..thinned mine with some solder and crimped the rear of the female spade connector on the back end close to the wire. By crimping them tighter like...
