    Thanks to Benji

    This is a shout out to say Thanks to Benji .

    Happily shared his nano com and knowledge of P38's .


    Made me feel happy that the trusty Land Rover electrics are up holding their reputation of driving me mental !

    But that all is well and Aulro members will lend a hand with knowledge / equipment and a laugh .

    Thank You Benji .

    Yeh, I admit your temp guage still has me stumped.

    It's got a new dash temp sensor, the connection is good ontop of the sensor, there's perfect continuity to c106 under the header tank, and then onto c114 on the becm.
    The nanocom can drive the temp guage to cold/warm/hot which is does through the becm so the woring there is good.

    When driving the guage with the nanocom its steady so that probably says the guage itself (and the AD convertor in the dash is okay)...

    When the car is on at 90c engine temp the guage sits just above half, but when the defrost program button is pushed on the hevac it goes up to hot, and dances around.

    The hevac and instrument cluster have different earths and fuse sources.

    The po has put a European hevac in with heated seats and front windscreen, but i couldn't see how that should make a difference.

    Great to meet up!

    I'd be looking at earths. I do wonder about the quality of the HEVAC earth on mine as the HEVAC lights are very sensitive to voltage fluctuations caused by the blinkers and other loads.

    From which model? I thought the HEVAC panels differed between GEMS and Thor models - not just in their firmware. However, it may only relate to the different ambient temp sensor and its location.
