Hi there, Thanks for an informative article. I recently changed the indicators, tail lights and front side lights on my '95 Defender 110 SW to LED's. Then I had an issue with everything flashing like hazards. To solve that challenge the indicator tell tale lamp on the dashboard was removed. So indicators on LHS work with the left indicator, and the RHS indicators work with the right indicator. At the same time I purchased a new hazard switch to replace a broken switch. Now hazards work, but only when the ignition is switched on, AND if the hazard switch is off, all the indicators lights light up when the left or right indicators are activated. To summarise: Dashboard tell tale light installed and no hazard switch installed - LHS and RHS indicators act like hazard lights. Dashboard tell tale light removed and no hazard switch installed - LHS and RHS indicators act as they are intended. Either LHS only or RHS only. Dashboard tell tale light removed and new hazard switch off - LHS/RHS indicators act like hazard lights when indicators are activated. Dashboard tell tale light removed and new hazard switch on - All indicators light up as they are supposed to. I am aware that there is a fix for the indicator lights dashboard tell tale light issue, but other than removing the hazard switch permanently, I need a solution for the hazard switch issue. Does anyone have a solution?

I believe that the only stupid question is the one not asked so here I go. When I purchased my 1995 Defender 110 CSW with 300 Tdi engine last year, it originally had a ADG505 air filter in the air filter housing (which it fitted perfectly). Since then it has only had the specified ADG942 filter fitted. Did the filters on my wifes newly acquired 1996 Defender 90 with 300 Tdi engine this weekend, and guess what? ADG505 air filter in the housing. Had already got the ADG942 filter so in that went. But that got me to thinking. If both filters fit and have virtually the same dimensions, which is better? Was ADG505 supposed to be only for 200 Tdi and ADG942 only for 300 Tdi? Any thoughts on this matter. Redcap
