Diff Lock Light

[fourteen8]

My mate D2 Diff lock light is on whenever he put his foot on the brake. It happened after he towed a trailer few days ago. It was a 7x4 trailer.

I know this will sound silly, but its probably either a blown brake fuse or globe. The trailer has probably blown the fuse.

What Slunnie said :D.

[fourteen8]

thanks guys. i'll ask him to check brake fuse/globe.

[Urban Panzer]

A faulty brake light switch does the same thing.

Blown brake lamp fuse will do this in a D2. The trailer towing job is also a dead giveaway:p

And on a side note,if you fill one of the horns full of water & it blows a fuse,the cruise control won't work...

On a D2....

To true, got sick of emptying my horns, and replacing them the second time when the muddy water killed em, so I moved the buggers behind the headlights, they now dont scoop up water like they used to when they were perfectly postioned to do so behind the grille.

why is mine bolted to the firewall??:o


and yes,,

when you take the horn fuse out,,
the cruise no longer functions,,

The horn bolted to the firewall is more than likely a third horn, used for the alarm. The 2 main horns (one high & one low pitch) are usually behind the grill.

Yep, the horn by the firewall is for the alarm only, although the "early" TD5's dont have them.

Look through your grille Pedro Im sure you could see your horns and listen when somone tries em..... unless they dont work coz they are full of water :D

[Pedro_The_Swift]

well that sorta makes sense,,
cos its the one on the firewall that blew my ears off when I had to use the key to unlock the door,,

:eek2:
