instument binnacle lights off
I have bought a 2009 Puma 110 from the Council with the intention of either keeping it or tidying it up and selling it. I love Defenders and I love working on them so this scratches the itch, lets me drive one but keep my regular vehicle for work. This one is really great and Im very pleased with it. I am pleasantly surprised at how good it is to drive and a working heater at this time of year in Yorkshire is a wonderful thing! I recently had it in for paint and a dent to be dealt with but now its back I have noticed that the instrument binnacle lights dont work and they did before. The rest of the lights in the middle f the dash work fine and there are no other problems. After a bit of digging I found something about disconnecting the battery incorrectly can cause problems. Im sure they will have disconnected it but could this be my issue if its been done wrong? I am currently trialling a pair of led headlights and my first thought was that they may have caused it but Im not sure thats likely. Its my first Puma after various Tdis and TD5 Discos so Im not up on their traits and peculiar ways. Any advice would be much appreciated.

Just to conclude this for anyones future reference it was caused by a fuse being gone to the ns sidelight. Apparently power to the cluster comes from this light.
