From the front of the dash it looks almost identical to the headlight switch, but behind it's a much smaller switch with four terminals arranged in a rectangle. Not much chance of confusing the two.
In my 2A (which from the photos looks to be about the same age as yours - suffix G?) I modified a headlight switch to enable fitting of a 2 speed wiper motor from a Series 3.
Very nice truck! Actually looks better than mine!

Hi All
The wipers have a switch on a panel that has been mounted in front of the steering wheel (that's gunna get the flick) and the wiper motor is in the parcel area in front of the passenger. The seats are apparently out of a Cortina Mk3. I have started to repair some of the wiring so I can get it up the road to the auto elect who is a Rover man, I was going to replace the harness myself but at the moment I dont have the time. Question Prease! Does the gearbox have syncro's or is it as someone local told me a crash box?????
cheers Ian
Should have syncro on third and fourth only - non syncro first and second. ;)
If it is all syncro it will be a Series III box.
:unsure:Excuse my ignorance Shonky,but does that mean it grinds like all get out trying to get it into 1st, 2nd and reverse (as he does) but 2nd to 3rd and 3rd to 4th are not too bad.
Cheers Ian
G'day All, When driving a Series Land Rover with syncro only on 3rd/4th gear, to stop all the crunching grinding trying to get it into gear, before attempting to select 1st this is what I do, I stop the G/box by selecting 4th gear, then out and into 2nd n up into 1st smooth as a babies bum, no noise etc etc cheers Dennis:angel:
I'll give it a go, I managed to repair a few more wiring problems yesterday with the washers,heater fan and found the wiper motor was Ted's brother (roo),and this morning the battery was flat as road kill:D.Got it on the charger now so I must have a drain somewhere. I'll have to get a battery tap for it until the new wiring harness turns up and then hopefully that should fix that problem. Does anyone know where I can source a wiper motor, 4wd.com?
Cheers Ian
