Replacement headlight switch
My lovely new acquisition has a severe electrical drain, emptying a new 80Ah battery within four days. Investigation required. My initial culprit is the headlight switch which remains continually illuminated. I understand that it has back-up information within and needs to match that of the IPK. If I fit a replacement can a t4 session make it compatible with the correct information?

Happy new year Brian. The info on this post, does the same apply to all the Rover 75 range?. I would imagine it does, but not to good on Electrickry problems.

Replacement, coded LSM seems to be doing the business. Car started first turn yesterday morning after standing idle for a week. I feel tempted to go for another trip today.

Certainly did.
It seems so. Marinabrian supplied a coded replacement LSM. There is an identically named thread concurrent with this which has a little more information. I inadvertently hit the send button twice when posting my plea. Last edited by Dragrad; 15th January 2017 at 23:32.. Reason: Consecutive posts, ;-) |
