Thread: Puma pedal fix

I got a spray tin of Tetrosyl waxoil stuff and sprayed it on the foam insert between the windscreen and bulk head. I smoothed it off with my finger. I used a flat screw driver to spread it along the top and bottom edge of the foam behind the windscreen bracket things. I also made sure to do the foam at the sides. The stuff repells water so it stops it getting in along the top or bottom of the foam.
Alternatively you could remove the windscreen bracket covers and run a length of heavy duty black top the width of the windsceen wrapping it around the sides. If one edge of the tape is fitted flush to the front bottom edge of the windscreen drain channel then you can smooth it back and cover the foam, then trim the bottom edge just below the bottom of the foam. The tape will just look like the foam it is covering. Once again the tape will prevent water getting in either above or below the foam. Refit the brackets.

On one of the threads I was reading a while ago, there was mention of a "fix" for water ingress on the accelerater pedal for the Puma.
Can someone point me in the right direction for this please?

I recall the tread too,but cant recall it's heading.

I do however know Pete Simpson on here has had his fly by wire accelerator under water several times in fresh and muddy waters and had no ill effect at all. Though his truck is a TD5, it has the same accelerator set up.

So some hope for us all. I don't quite understand but I have read Traxide mention electronics working under water as well. My dealer said don't get it wet, and LR in general would say so to reduce potential issues. But hopefully it's a bit more robust than we give electrical stuff in general.

still be good read read the thread again
