    LH front indicator issue

    The left front indicators on my D2 have stopped working, both in the bull bar and the guard. Both globes look ok. The other indicators that side are working fine, just clicking/flashing fast. the right hand side all work as normal. headlight that side works too. i cant find a fuse that would correspond with the indicators. So please help, i need the disco and cant not use it, disabled driver i need to at least get to my medical appointments. i cnat drive my other vehicle anymore. so this i need to get to the bottom of asap. so thanks for pointers in advance folks

    Pull the globe and check the contacts for corrosion in the bulb holder, Scrape of the corrosion to reveal metal.

    My front right is like this at the moment. Its needs a good clean up

    The clue for me is that both lights are not working.
    Have a look at look at where the bull bar light wire is connected to the front indicator wire.
    On mine they had used a scotch lock, one of those fold over and squeeze units.
    It had broken the main wire so no power going to either globe.
    A quick solder and all was good.
    Cheers, Kyle

    Well inspected further. The culprit is the bit the globe is in. The wires go there first before the bit in the bullbar so that's why both not working. Wires all look good and there is power through them. There is a corroded missing part in the globe housing. LOL also found another issue I didn't know I had, cooling fan fuse was blown. I swear its been working thougg and I've not over heated anywhere!

    I'm actually wrecking a D2 V8, I may have a spare globe holder for one. I'll have a look for it tomorrow if you like.
