Thanks for the diagram its very useful. This morning I took all the connections off the back of the ignition switch and when I put the battery back online from my isolator the dashboard lights still came on. Weird or what? I have tried shorting out the wires you mentioned but nothing happens it doesn't even make the solenoid click. Also as far as I can see there are no wires shorting out unless of course its somewhere in the loom - hopefully not Any ideas

Yesterday all was well and this morning 1998 landy 90 300tdi will not start and the solenoid on the starter motor just clicks. Earth cable and power to starter motor seem OK but on checking all fuses the 10A fuse inside the cab had blown. Replaced but now even with the key out of the ignition the warning lights remain lit (oil, battery, handbrake) and the starter motor still just clicks. Could this be a faulty ignition barrel causing both problems and how can I check if this is the case. Fortunately I have a battery isolator so am not draining the battery which is only a few months old and showing green for OK. Any help or ideas greatly appreciated

I have recently purchased a Defender 90 300Tdi 1998 and the only warning lights that work are the engine oil and battery. All the others do not work even though the actual items work (e.g. indicators side lights, main lights etc. I have continuity checked the fuses in the engine bay and those inside the cabin (AMR5718) and all seem OK. I have also had the warning light module out and checked each of the bulbs and they all seem OK. My next step is to voltage check the wires in the two clip in wiring harnesses that attaché to the warning light module to see if when the ignition is turned on there is a voltage to each of the bulb placements especially the glow plug one as I expected that to light up then go out. Anyone have any bright ideas about something simple I am missing or have fixed a similar problem
