why the rear turn signals in the tail lights wouldn't work even though all the others do including the ones in the bumper right below them? and yes bulbs work and there is a ground, just no power.

 

Lucas Electrics.

 

you may be right. i just resorted to spicing them to the bumper ones that work

 

spicing-Verb; to resort to a "just make it work" state after realizing land rover never intended for the electrics in their vehicles to work.

 

I'd like to know who did their wiring, 3rd grader? No, that would be better.

I'm lucky, my biggest electrical issue has been,apart from the numerous switches I've replaced, my rear window wiper will only work with all the doors closed, soon as any of the doors open, it shuts off

 

That is supposed to do that.

 

Oh, that was almost as bad as when I thought something was wrong with my abs 'cause the light would stay on 'till I drove.

 

Do Rovers get sensitive at the types of bulbs you use? My BMW's had to have the silver bulbs or the brake lights would go crazy... Just a thought.

On my D2 the sidemarker went out, but as soon as I put a new bulb in, the signal light went out. It was the weirdest thing. I even checked the bulb prior to replacing the sidemarker bulb.

 

yes, there is even a thread about a horn button attacking the driver!

 

LOL...the owners manual is a good thing to read.
