Afternoon all,
Now that my 3500 Auto is back from a certain Mr Dunning's attentions to it's bodywork (stunning paint!), I have some electrical problems to sort out before I feel confident enough to use it for getting to work on night shifts.... so, can anyone recommend a good auto electrician who can be trusted with a thirty nine year old P6, preferably in my own area?
Nick and his oppo Duncan Gill reckon that whoever fitted my car's tow bar somehow bypassed the original fusebox when installing the associated wiring, causing some serious problems with the lights, indicators, brake lights etc, and causing part of the fusebox to melt. The tow bar has been removed now but the problem still persists, even after a bit of nudging here and there with the wiring that's visible inside the boot area. Switching on the headlights, only the off side outer lamp comes on, but knocking the stalk up for 'full beam' illuminates all four front lamps.... very odd!
Any thoughts, suggestions or a nod towards someone who can do the work would be most gratefully received! (I'd like to get it sorted asap as I have a 'Sweeneyesque' photo op in London coming up on 10th April) :wink:
Cheers in advance,
Nidge.
