Just a thought.
the other thought is that it joins the bumper lights and with bumper off it's causing issues as there is no continuation. If somebody can give me location of earth i will have a look. will probably mean disassembling my rear drawers to get to it i assume. :(

found this for anyone interested. doesn't help me as it doesn't tell where the earth points are but still could be useful to someone.
I vaguely remember seeing it there when I pulled my LHS speaker unit out to reattach a wire and tighten it's screws, but not 100% sure and it was a while back too.Quote:

Best way to describe it would be at about the level of the seam between the speaker trim panel and the main side panel.
If you don't want to pull the speaker out, then if you pull the light access hatch out, AND the cubby trim panel(if you have them) duck your head from low down looking up into the light access port and you will see a 8 or 10mm nut deep inside up there.
But speaker removal will make it much easier to see/reach.
Do you have a copy of RAVE?
If so, which one, what items does it have.
If you have AULRO's version of RAVE for the D1, you need to find the pdf file named 'etlj950x.pdf' which is a fairly complete electrical library.
Shows you all the earth points(hence my reference to earth point E400 above).
I have rave but doesn’t show any electrical diagrams. I looked at link i had up there and mentions numbers etc and shows cct but nothing that actually shows where the earths are placed on vehicle. I found an earth on right side which comes from right light wiring and earths onto a part of the fuel filling tube.Quote:

Thanks for your help though I appreciate it. On a good note my daughter fell asleep in the car so i took the time to touch up the panels under bumper and pulled all the bits off the bumper too ready for painting.
If you do a search in Windows Explorer for the name of the file I mentioned above, and if found this is what you need.Quote:

If you use the RAVE main menu system, no you won't get to the electrical library.
You need to open this 'etlj950x' file manually.
On the RAVE CD, look for the folder named 'pdf'
Inside this folder is another set of folders, look for the one named 'lj' (LJ is the Disco 1 model name).
Inside this lj folder is the etlj950x file, open it with your PDF viewer.
Note that etlj950x, etlj960x and etlj970x are all electrical library, just slight variations for the various models... any of them will do.
