defender dinky Posted March 3, 2020 Author Share Posted March 3, 2020 ignition on, sounds like a relay clicking, and noticed the suspension not lifting, when turning on ignition, dd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sierrafery Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 You have to be more precise with that "ignition on" term cos if it's about ignition on II without engine running the suspension is not supposed to lift cos it works only with engine running. As long as you dont describe exactly what's going on i can't help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
defender dinky Posted March 4, 2020 Author Share Posted March 4, 2020 just tried it again, key in ignition turn to position two all lights on dash about five seconds you here click click, another five or six seconds click click and so on all the time heater ,radio, fans turned off, like i said earlier removed cover under steering wheel had a listen and its louder, removed all fuses and relays all seem ok, and it still clicks with engine running, it sounds like a relay click, dd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sierrafery Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 (edited) OK, now it's clear... Is your rear wiper working?...if yes what about rear windows ? Edited March 4, 2020 by sierrafery Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
defender dinky Posted March 4, 2020 Author Share Posted March 4, 2020 Theres not a rear wiper on the car, it was'nt on when I bought it, there looks to be a bung in the hole where it should be, the rear windows work fine, also just remembered the fuel gauge only goes up half way does'nt move until you turn ignition off, no matter how much petrol you put in only goes half way, dd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sierrafery Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 I kind'a suspected that that's why i asked. The clicking noise is probably the rear wiper relay, i've seen this fault twice, unfortuaely you can't remove it cos it's soldered into the fusebox's PCB, just check if the rear wiper switch is not pushed, eventually unpug it and if the relay keeps clicking you'll need another fusebox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
