Earths on Land Rovers

<< < (2/2)

SEDDEY:
The same thing was happening to my lights when I got the car, :(  could not sort it out so asked a very nice man! He pointed out that the earth strap to the body was not connected just behind the battery. Fixed it, I can now see where I am going :lol:

toger:
Could this also be the reason that I go through about four rear near side brake lights blowing a year please?

wizard:
Hi Toger

Generally loose or poor connections are the cause of lamps blowing.
You might have a bit of corrosion on the lamp holder or a poor earth connection.

Wizard :twisted:

Spot-on!

Body earth behind the battery wasn't connected. As to why the symptoms only showed up recently, who knows .....
