Hi again ! Please see part one for the background ! Any help with the following questions would be much appreciated. Electrical problems ! 1. Heated rear window / mirrors don't work Push the switch and the illumination briefly brightens then dims again after releasing. Assume a defective time delay relay. Comments ? 2. How do you get to the relays ? Have a Haynes ( yuck ) manual somewhere. Suggests that the top of the dash can be removed to access various bits inside. Can't see how it's done. Is this how you access the relay box behind the glove compartment ? 3. Miscellaneous illumination missing. Bulbs obviously blown - car's actual mileage is around 155k instead of indicated 110k, so no surprise. Access to panel is tricky - see above - also I got a few spare control panels off Ebay like the heater control panel - yet can't figure how to replace bulbs. Is ther some voodoo involved ? 4. Headlights. Main beam inoperative - well - explanation. There are 4 bulbs in the headlights. Only the inner 2 illuminate. The dip / full switch has an effect - it dims the 2 inner bulbs on dip setting and that's about it ! The blue main beam light on the dash doesn't illuminate. No reason to suspect the outer bulbs are blown as there is no indication on the dash ( which has indicated a blown stop lamp - the high level one it seems ). 5. Heater fan Only works on position 4. Seems likely the resistor pack has gone u/s. Believe this is also behind the dash. Hence I need to get there ! 6. AC Kinda hopeful that the AC might work but of course it doesn't ! Not ACC btw. The AC switch appears to do nothing - zilch. But turning the fan to on ( position 4 only currently ) causes the engine to momentarily drop in revs and then speed up as if expecting the load. Regardless of whether the AC switch is pressed or not ! Ideas ? 7. Trip computer display on dash Nothing visible. Wondering if it's trying to tell me there's a problem with the engine management ! Maybe just rear illumination blown ? Once again need access to the bits. Help ! I think this is the worst of it for now ! Thanks in advance for any help. Graham
