Title: DS Fuse box
Post by tonyboy on Aug 5^th, 2009, 8:31pm

After trying 2 fuse box's to fix my lighting problem, and now have fixed it temporary with a bridge for the MOT.
I will be trying another fuse box . The chance of having 2 box's with the same problem i would have thought, Not impossible but not likley, the chance of 3 box's having the same problem i would of thought would be near impossible. Anyway i'll let you know the outcome of the fuse box change when i do it........

I think the plug is located right, since trying to sort out the lights and the washer pump iv'e had the plug off and on and still the same problems, the way i put the plug back on is, place myself directly above, line up the 2 plastic lugs, then push down on the plug so it's going in straight. I know it's easy to get it wrong cos i thought my wipers had packed up, till i checked the plug again,......

That doesnt sound like it would go in right doing it that way to me Tony.

The small pins on the the multiplug at the end farthest from the wires need to hook under the locating lugs first then push it down.

Hard to explain i know, maybe that is how you're doing it?
