Thanks for the reply! So the two bolts that hold the bar in place that go in from the top into the bars cross section... do they require holes drilling or do they go into existing rivet holes?
-
I'm trying to install mine today and it's very very tight between the top of the bulkhead and the return edge it sits on. Anybody done this before have any advice or something I may have missed?
Cheers

Hi
My puma 90 is missing it's bonnet release full assembly. I've ordered the release handle and it comes as an assembly with a short piece of cable looks to go just through the bulkhead. I can't seem to find the second piece that goes around under the hood to the actual release mechanism on the nose.
Any help would be great just to avoid ordering the wrong 20 quid cable
Cheers

Hi all
I'm going to attempt to retrim the back of my 90 with rubber check plate. I plan to dynamat it and foam it before installing the rubber. Can anybody recommend anything to stick down the rubber?
I've attached a photo of what I'm hoping to achieve.

Are all the indicators working OK? I had a similar problem recently, it turned out to be a bad indicator connection (rear). After swapping the indicator and rewiring with the OEM plug all worked normally.
Before discovering this I replaced the flasher relay and hazard switch, neither resolved the issue thus why i checked the wiring, strange that is caused the hazard switch not work work but it did.
yes all indicators working ok but hazards not working. not sure how i would go about testing this. I've swapped the hazard switch to a known good one from another landrover. is there two different incoming 12v supplies to the hazard switch? does anybody have a drawing for me to test at the hazard switch??
-
they are a little corroded but i will scratch them up a bit. managed to get indicators on and was a both hazard switch and flasher relay faulty. now the indicators work but the hazards don't
-
So I've checked volts at the fuse before and after and continuity checked fuse. I think I'm correct in checking the green and red wires and looks like green and blue maybe. Where is a good place to check after this
-
It's an 84 with 200tdi conversion. I've fuse checked it all and sorted wipers out but still lost with the indicators and gauges and heater. I've swapped out the flasher relay for a known good one and nothing
-
oh as well as the fuel indicator and temperature gauge. these faults alone i would just point to point check them and try and work it out but theres something about the whole lot of them not working together thats making me think its something causing them all... the gauges have been back on and back off intermittently while this has been happening
-
My indicators aren't working as well as my wipers and my main beam lights. Any clues as to why all may have stopped??

Had a search but couldn't find any info so sorry if this is repeated. My dad has bought an 57 puma defender. His mate has a 2014 one and has upgraded his sterio so has given mg dad the original alpine unit for his. I can't for the life of me find an adaptor to go from the 57 puma to the back of the alpine unit. Any help would be great
Pics show back of original 57 unit and back of new unit and also the adaptor we have been given that doesn't work
Thanks

hi cheers for reply. where is the resistor located? is it the one with three wires coming from. i have tested 12v up to the blower so i am guessing its the motor itself just want to be sure I'm not being stupid and missing something
-
since I've had the car it only works on one speed. its either on or off and the switch has to be all the way to the bottom to be on?
so you guys would suggest checking the switch goes to earth correctly?
cheers for the help

hi I've had intermitent fault with fan on 90. it works sometimes then can turn it off and on 10 mins later then nothing
i had a little dig around in the wiring today and found the two wires that seem to be going into the fan blower itself. would i be correct in thinking i can just put 12v + and - to these two wires and it should work?
i proved that i had 12v up to this point anyway by cutting out a connector and replacing with terminal block and no life from the blower. does this look like a faulty blower unit?
any hep would be great
cheers

Hi
My heater was intermittently working and has now completely broken. Usually when it goes off if I move the fuses around it works again. The fuse plate isn't fixed down to the bulk head could this be the problem?
If not any other suggestions

Hi
Does anybody know what size the bolts are that hold the fuse box onto the bulkhead? Not the twisty black things that hold the cover on the actual bolts that hold it onto the body of the car.
Cheers
-
No power to any of the terminals on the plug going into the hazard switch. Should my next check be the indicator stalk?
-
I've got a a test probe and checked all the fuses and all fuses are OK. I've tested the relay and none of the pins have any power to it
-
Hi all
Indicators are not working at all and I'm a little lost with it all to be honest.
The hazards not working either so I swapped the switch with my dad's td5 switch that looked exactly the same and is working in his landy and still nothing so I swapped the flasher relay with a new one and an old one that we know was working and both times no luck.
I installed led lights all around and didn't change the flasher relay for a while and just left it flashing quickly for a while and it was working OK just quick. Then absolutely nothing
Any help would be great as I'm lost. I have also checked all the fuses they all look OK haven't had a meter on them as I don't have one to hand but I made a shorting link to go across the fuse carrier and this did nothing.

my location is wirral Merseyside and I will take a photo asap and get it up but from memory the bolt at the point of it snapping is going into a threaded hole not a nut.
-
the belt is still under some tension that is why the body looks at a different angle to the snapped piece. I'm wondering if I've been putting too much tension on the belt?

I'm struggling to upload a photo but it is a 200 tdi and it is the bottom mounting hole
-
the alternator is mounted with two bolts one on the top and one on the bottom... the bottom mounting hole is snapping and I haven't got a clue how or why.
