Hello all,
This us my first post to any forum. I purchased my 92 Defender 90 200 Tdi about 8 months ago. When I purchased it it came with a stack of reciepts from recent motor rebuild other upgrades and repairs. I personally have replaced the transfer box, clutch and slave, new brakes (calipers pads and rotors) as well as some cosmetic upgrades. My issue is electrical and when it comes to electrics..... Well I'm a much better finger painter.

Here goes nothing.

side note.. if this is posted improperly I apologize I am sure there is a thread somewhere on this but I haven't been able to locate it.
Engine off no brake lights, engine on brake lights work properly left blinker works, right blinker works sometimes then the blinker light on the dash dims and the blade fuse pops. Additionally sometimes when I turn on the headlights the fog light indicator on the dash comes on and the tail lights go out. I have checked all the ground wires I can locate, I have replaced the hazard switch, headlights switch and blinker stalk. I did upgrade to led lights (all but side markers which don't work now) I also think it's important to say the fuse issue was an issue before the led install. I suspect there's a fault to ground somewhere but I'm at a loss. If anyone has any ideas besides brown liquor and dynamite I'm open to suggestions .

Update! After digging through threads like a miner on a mission I discovered resistors. Even though I have the led relay I decided to give it a shot and presto! Working lights sooooooo never mind my previous post.

Thanks
