    Puma Headlight flasher stopped working

    A question for the electrics gurus out there:

    Vehicle: 2008 Defender 110 Wagon.
    Question: Are the driver's side parking light and the headlight flasher on the same relay as the rear window de-mister?

    On the rear window (cargo bay door), the connection on the driver's side has broken and I haven't been able to re-attach it to the points so it's just hanging at the moment.

    I noticed at the weekend that the driver's side parking light (the wee one to the top left of the headlight as you're looking at the front of the vehicle) wasn't working and then last night I went to flash my lights using the indicator stem and the flasher isn't working - headlights remain on low beam.

    Are these all related, by any chance?

    If I can solve all of these things by reattaching the de-mister connector, can somebody suggest how I might do it? I tried some proper adhesive which I found at Supercheap but it didn't work....potentially due to the classic 'poor instructions/ user error' combination!

    Do you have a horn? .....you know what I mean.

    The flasher used to take it's power from the horn so it could operate without the headlights being on so I assume it still does in the Puma.

    Scouse, I'd completely forgotten about that, well done. The horn is not working either.

    Any ideas where I'd need to look - is it a fuse thing or a more localised issue perhaps?

    There is a fuse under the drivers seat that services the horn/high beam. Look under the lid of the fuse box as to which one it is.

    Thanks Rob

    I installed the ExBox so this will give me a good excuse to get in there and organise it.

    Cheers
