LIGHTS problem and high emisions on mot HELP!!

<< < (2/3) > >>

age:
Hope you don't mind me jumping in - I've had duff 'toggle' switches on all my Defenders, and none of them ever had any visible fault.  I think the moving contact just loses its spring pressure onto the fixed contacts for the dip circuit (the dash lights go at the same time).  Not popular driving round on main beam......  Just bite the bullet and replace it in my experience - doesn't look very mend-able.

Don't know what steering wheel you've got, but with the bulky cushioned wheel centre I found it easier to take the wheel off when fiddling the cowl off the column - or maybe I'm just ham-fisted!  

Cheers, A

Appreciate your input as i would have to mail order one im trying to borrow one from a friend just to check by simply swapping them. ill keep all informed

anyone got a clu on emmisions? still really worried as diesels smoke its a known fact but when its costing me money for retests its not good

MY90 MY LIFE:

The usual trick is to go for a good long blast before the test - get the engine good and hot, and clean all the crap out of it, before the tester gets his nasty mitts on it !

And make sure its got new filters in it.
