I replaced the sealed beam headlamp that failed yesterday, did not have any in Halfords, neither did there suppliers, but another supplier had no problem.
However within a short while both the indicators and the stop lamps fail on me.
according to the wiring diagram they are on seperate feeds from seperate fuses and the indicators share a fuse with the windscreen wipers,
Well the wipers were working fine and all the fuses were ok.
I rigged up a temporary live feed (via an inline fuse for safetys sake) to the indicator flasher and lo and behold the brake light is fixed too.
Something very odd and non standard about the wiring, for I have no idea where the live for these items was originally coming from, however wherever it was, it has either come loose or broke.
Annoying when things are not the way they are supposed to be.
