My First Car - 1991 Rover Mini Neon [Image Heavy]

[phillmoore]

i decide to look into why my side lights and dip beam didn't work so got some access to the electrics behind the dash after connecting my stereo so it worked

this is my brilliant iso connector ( or what i seem to have in place instead of a simple iso connector )



finally connected after a lot of guess work an luckily no blown fuses



the hole i found after fitting the stereo ( definitely need new metal for that )



what was left of the dash after i made a bit more access room





i noticed that this switch is newer than the rest and added to which it appears to have two wires joined onto one pin so i followed the wires







the black wire joins onto a blue an red wire on the main wiring loom to the engine bay so i checked the engine bay



which goes to one of the fuses in this pic which had very bad contacts so i cleaned what i could and flipped the fuse round (just test til i replace it ) which fixed my side lights and dip beams not working



unfortunately i also found this small leak from my carb ( tho its just perished so new hoses an clamps will be orderd with the rest when i have money )



i still have a load more to transfer so more to come from the past
