    Earth point locations

    OK so the first thing I need to do to find the cause of a few dramas with the 98 V8 is find and check ALL the earth points.
    Unlike a lot of you guys, (and I'm ashamed to say it)... unless I open the bonnet and whatever it is I'm looking for has a bright neon sign on it clearly stating what it is, what it does and if it's currently in a good working condition or not then I'm usually stuffed.
    What I need to know is how many earth points are there and where are they located?
    Hope to sort it soon and thanks to everyone who've posted replies & recommendations to previous posts.

    There will be hundreds, you need to be more specific.
    The main earths are battery to engine block, block to chassis and chassis to body.
    Almost every electrical doo-dah has it's own earth and usually are joined with some others to a single earth point on either chassis or body, there are many of these earth points all over the car, you really need a Land Rover Workshop Manual wiring diagram to find them all.
    Also what are the "dramas" you write about, would help with diagnosis, Regards Frank.
