Green200tdi Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 Hi not been on here in a long time so merry Christmas to you all, need bit of advice I’ve got my self a replacement td5 15p bulkhead wiring loom and I’m wondering where the fog light switch would go,I have four block connectors that go up the steering colom along with the four ignition wires, Would the switch be located behind the wiper stalk like the old 110’s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave W Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 The fog light switch is in the centre dash console thing... along with the hazard light switch, heated rear screen etc... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green200tdi Posted December 23, 2018 Author Share Posted December 23, 2018 So why have I got four plugs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dailysleaze Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 The fourth is the fog lamp ecu connector https://www.lrworkshop.com/connectors/defender-2002my/C0543 The fog lamp switch is this https://www.lrworkshop.com/connectors/defender-2002my/C1741, not shown in your photo and as already said is in the centre of the loom above the fuse box.

PaulMc Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 (edited) The four connectors in your picture, are - A. Main Lighting Switch (LH side of column) B. Rear Fog Lamp 'one-touch' ECU (behind instrument pack) C. Wash/Wipe Switch (RH side of column) D. Horn/Dip/Flash Switch (LH side of column) For the rear fog lamp switch - 1999 - 2001 - have the Lucas type rocker switch down by your right knee 2002 - 2006 - have the push/push type in the console in the centre of the dash .

western Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 If you keep the loom intact then you will have to replace the column stalks to get matching sockets for the loom, or change the existing rubber connectors to match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green200tdi Posted December 24, 2018 Author Share Posted December 24, 2018 Yes that’s what I’m going to do Ralph replace both stalks and side light switch priced them up cheep enough as they are all at least 14 years old maybe even older, so due anyway,just a shame Land Rover thought it was a good idea to move fog light switch not even long enough 😂would of been perfect just to go the same route with all switches, can go in my raptor dash 😊 thanks all for the help and have a great Christmas 👍 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arjan Posted December 27, 2018 Share Posted December 27, 2018 IIRC from the side.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotts90 Posted December 27, 2018 Share Posted December 27, 2018 Ecu/main loom and ABS plugs enter from the side under the cubby towards the front, power supply to drivers underseat fuse box to the rear of the same side. Power supply to starter exits from the front face of the passenger battery compartment along the chassis leg. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok thank you cool, was hoping loom would be long enough and enter passenger seat box from the side otherwise if not would have to move my battery’s good news 😊 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green200tdi Posted December 28, 2018 Author Share Posted December 28, 2018 Well I’ve been over this new second hand loom and can’t fault it apart from a broken plug but that is still in good order no cuts or anything all original by looks of it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotts90 Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 You can purchase a patch lead which will adapt to standard ISO blocks which are fitted to most aftermarket head units Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotts90 Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 So, are you fitting a td5 loom to a non-td5 engined version? If so, the ignition barrel switches are different...which you've already sussed out. The td5 looms have no ignition triggered heater plug wiring as the ecu takes care of this on the td5 engine. Straightforward enough to work around though. wiring to switch as below... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
western Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 It was PaulMc who replied to your earlier question, a suggestion -- I can wrap these 3 posts into a new one called something like "Td5 loom into a pre 1991 earlier vehicle" Then it could be a easier for you to have all the info in one post & reference source for others & can be linked to the Tech Archive.
