visited stinky and had a look at his locker wiring for him which got me motivated to get out in my garage .made a start on my new car trailer .got the main deck frame done .worked out spring mounts and drawbar tilt points .in the process managed to knock over the dirty diesel oil i had just changed in my van f@*#$%^n bastard mess every where.holy shit that stuff is hard to get off the concrete .left a bloody great black stain even after two doses of heavy duty degreaser and a water blast.might be a good place to stack some tyres for a while so the wife doesn,t notice it :oops: :oops:

Own a Series 2a ... lights have electrical issues ... some glow when they shouldn't and other don't when they should ... haven't found the faulty wires yet. The hunt shall be continued ... GOT ANY TIPS!?

But did find 1/2 an 2l ice cream container worth of new road chip seal courtesy of the Desert road up North. Haven't checked all of the underside yet.

Check all the earths for the lights, bad earths can sometime cause those symptoms.
Thanks

Hmm, I would never have thought that faulty earth connections could play tricks like that ... shorting cables at a common point was my guess and that's what I was hunting for. Thanks :D
