Hi, I bought my TD 90 in September. On the way home, the fuse (number 5) for the indicators kept blowing. I've replaced the fuse, cleaned up all the connections, and re-earthed all of the indicator lights. Bu the problem is still there; the fuse keeps blowing. The hazard warning switch looks fine, and there is power to all the indicator lights. The final thing might be that where the loom passes through the bulkhead, a wire has worn through. Before I go through the pain of removing and stripping the dashboard, does anyone have any other suggestions? With thanks, Tim.

Hi, I bought my TD90 in September 2015, fully Mot'd(!) but once on the road, the fuse for the indicators, guages and brake lights (no 5, 15 amp) keeps blowing. It blows when I operate the indicator switch - it's fine at a stand-still, but blows on the move! I've checked that the indicator lights are all getting power, and that they are all earthed. I have read that the hazard switch (through which all the wires pass, I'm told) can be a weak point. Will replacing this switch cure my problem? If not, I reckon that a wire must be shorting somewhere in the loom near the fuse box. The wires pass through the bulkhead in a thick bundle, but without removing the dash, I can't really inspect any more than the first couple of inches of the loom. If that's the case, please can anyone let me know how to remove the dash? I've got the grab handle (passenger side)and heater controls (driver's side) off, but can't see what else I need to undo to get the dash to pull away. Any help would be brilliant. Thanks, all. Tim.
