Cost me a knackered injector pump and endless amounts of hassle so i gave up.
Tried on bio but noticed a drop in mpg so derv all the way from now on.
I only rack up about 3500 miles a year in mine so i can live with the price of pump derv.

Some modding at the weekend, turning the offside reverse light into a fog light for the MOT at the end of the month.

First things first, covers off so I can route the cable.






Went for some 7 core to give me spare connections for the future.







I'll say this now, I detest scotch locks but if it ain't broke don't fix it

Not that the crimped piggybacks look much neater... gold star if you can guess what the relay is for




Red LED bulb to replace the clear one in the reverse light fitting




Time out to get the tractor out and muck out the Clydesdale colt's stable before he gets castrated




Back at the Trol and it's centre dash out to get the switch fitted and rigged up




Rectangular blank




Not quite rectangular opening :doh




Get the Dremel and the big file out... job done




Quite a tight space on the top row of blanks for a conventional rocker so out with the Dremel again and some cutting down to size




A previous owner had already spliced a female spade connection into a permanent live 24v feed from the fuse box, be a waste not to use it!




Testing the rocker (fog lights need a tell tale so it's an LED one)




It's alive!




Everything back in place (just about) and working :thumbs







Anyone worked out what the relay is for yet? :augie

Some kind of water level warning equipment...... maybe......?:augie

Or sloppy slurry depth testing equipment........ maybe.......?

nope :lol

It's to do with the fog light

 

[terranosaurusdoug]

Looks like it needs a flippin' was you scruff

:lol the Trol could do with a bit of a wash to get the dust off but inside the wing wasn't me, it looks like a previous owner has at some point painted old oil or something similar as a preserver in there

[jims-terrano]

OK is the relay for some sort of circuit to switch a 12 supply to the fog light?

 

[Banshee]

I'm bored of the guesses, whatever it is, it will be encased in mud the first time he gets out in it :doh :lol :lol

I wish someone had done the same on mine, started the n/s sill and arches yesterday, three twats with the tapping stick and half the truck was laying on the floor, and I could see my boot carpet :doh, having almost a full day on it today though :thumbs

Like you've never taken Terrance in the mud Mr Glasshouses

Be hard to get it encased in mud when it's in the wing :doh

The relay is hooked into the tail lights so the fog light only works when the tail lights are on :thumb2
