That's more like it. Roger

Well spotted. The supplied diagram is similar to the Advanced Auto Wire diagram. The flasher would have no effect if you already had the dip beam on. So the Brown/Blue wire should not go to Blue on the dip switch but to Blue/White to the high beam. Roger

There are longer nipples with the correct thread - keep looking This is the Moss nipple https://www.moss-europe.co.uk/en-gb/grease-nipple-7h3858 Roger

Hi Phil the short horizontal line in the 'lighting switch' is the flasher contact So you have Brown/Blue on one side and Brown & Green/Brown on the other. The Green/Brown goes to the fuse fed by the white wire. Roger

Hi Pete, yes that would work - but the grey cells would go crazy trying to understand what was going on. Roger

Hi Ralph as per my post above. You can take a +Ve feed from the output of the relay that powers the fan. Bring this back to the dashboard where the LED/bulb is fitted. Use a local earth from there. I have noticed that the LED fades slowly (about 2 seconds) when power is removed. But it works a treat Roger

Hi Pete, I have a few copies snuck away. Some very dog eared and at least on in its plastic cover. Most have invaluable notes scribbled on ( if only I could read what is scribbled) TRuly a valuable resource. Roger

Hi Clive, that sounds about typical. I understand that the dust seal from one of the Spitfire kits is the correct thickness. Roger

Hi Paul, it will not do any harm but can be inconvenient if there are problems. Stick with it until a point where you need to drain the system. Roger

Is that Arundel Castle. Roger

Hi Nigel, yes. Although quite stiff it is bendable. I have re-bent a LHD switch into a RHD switch When you come to take it off the steering column cut the bullet connectors off and then attach both wires to a fly lead - 18" long Pull the wires out from where the switch sits and pull through the fly lead (not all the way ) The reverse can be done to put it back - then refit the bullets.

Hi Nigel the arms are quite rigid. The problem is holding/supporting it adequately. If you can get a heavy lump attached to the switch end and then lever against lump to pull the free end to where it should be. Roger

Hi Paul, I am pleased for you that it all sorted - but why the Waterless fluid. Roger

Hi Ralph I did the same mistake (In a rush) I overcame this by running a wire from the relay Output to the fan - back into the cockpit for the LED. If you are using a standard LED you will need a 1K resistor in series (in line) or use a 12V LED. The LED may illuminate with power OFF if the fan is spinning in as you drive along (probably not tho') Roger
