jonost24 Posted April 8, 2007 Share Posted April 8, 2007 Good afternoon fellas, I have some sort of intermittent fault. The indicators all work but the dash light doesn't. The fog light doesn't work. Had a look at the fuses, all ok. took them out ,put them back. Then the fog light worked . The indicators then bacame intermittent sometimes they worked sometimes they didn,t. Checked fuses, all ok. Then indicators worked inc the dash light, but then the foglight now doesn't work . Do you think its dodgy wiring behind the fuse box. All gauges seem ok, headlights, brake lights all seem ok, except for indicators occassionally and no foglight. And yes before anyone says I know indicators are intermittent ON, OFF, ON, OFF etc etc Any advice would be appreciated, Haapy easter, Cheers, Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FridgeFreezer Posted April 8, 2007 Share Posted April 8, 2007 Sounds a lot like something behind the fusebox, and defender fuseboxes are not in the best place ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
western Posted April 8, 2007 Share Posted April 8, 2007 If the fuses are the older glass type, take them all out & clean the clips & gently tighten them with long nose pliers, then clean the fuse endcaps & refit, check the wiring behind the fusebox too.

Litch Posted April 8, 2007 Share Posted April 8, 2007 If you have water leaking down your bulkhead and the seal through which the main wiring harness passes through the bulkhead isn't good then the rear of the fuse-box can get quite corroded. I would remove the fuse-box (disconnect the battery first) and take it off to make sure you haven't got a major problem in the making.
