All went pop!

Post by grahamt7 »

Had to beep the horn this morning at someone. It went be- and then stopped! Radio went off at same time, also power screenwash and interior light not playing. Indicators / brake lights / headlamps ok, swapped the two fuses, everything still as described above....

where do I look now?

Thanks,

Graham.

In this case I wouldd wiggle / clean / WD40 all the connections at the regulator and fusebox.
If that doesn't work, then it's time for a bulb test lead and a thinking cap :(

These items are all supplied through the fuse which is live without
the ignition 'ON' so check the fuse which has brown wires on one
side and purple wires on the other end. If the fuse has not actually
blown then clean the fuse holder clips, the Minor is notorious for going
high resistance on these clips.
