I'm still betting on it being a single switch problem Whistle Diesel$ Live$ Matter. ⛽️🛢️👨‍🔧🧰⚙️ RED, WHITE & BOOST! 🇬🇧

Could be as simple as a dodgy contact or a loose connection.Mine went on the driver's window and it was a broken wire in the rubber covering sleeve that goes from the door frame to the pillar where the hinges are. The wire used is very frail. You can pull the sleeve gently out from the pillar at the bulk head and open it up to check the wires. 1982 88" 2.25 diesel

Why would a 5 Amp fuse feed to 20 Amp ones?


Trying to keep it simple. Supply relay fuse...same set up you should have if you fit auxilliary lights. Thumbs Up

Ignition supplies relay 5 amp fuse, pulls in relay, contacts of relay supply through 20 amp fuses window motors. Thumbs Up

In this case 3 amp feeds 20/25 amp...


Sorry - missed your reply.
Thanks, all is clear now Thumbs Up Tell someone you love them today because life is short.

You will probably be able to remove the switches easily with out taking the dash out only the radio and access from the side only. This will be much easier for you then. Thumbs Up Diesel$ Live$ Matter. ⛽️🛢️👨‍🔧🧰⚙️ RED, WHITE & BOOST! 🇬🇧

Have you had a good pull at the wires between a post and door? If they are broken, which is very common, only the copper wire will be broken, not the insulation covering them.

Ah right, If I was local you could have borrowed mine or I'd check it for you but not possible. I am wondering if perhaps it is a short now... Diesel$ Live$ Matter. ⛽️🛢️👨‍🔧🧰⚙️ RED, WHITE & BOOST! 🇬🇧
