V8S earthing

[mstrutt]

Hi

Under the offside front wheel arch the earth strap has something attached looking like fuses. Can anyone tell me the purpose of these and where replacements can be purchased as mine are looking perished.

Thanks
Mike

Hi Mike

Could be ballast restistors for dimming instrument lighting do you have a photo to share?

I didn't bother putting mine back on after the refurb - and I poked the 2 long wires back through the bulkhead out of the way. It means the dash lights only work on the brightest setting now

that would be "Dim" then ?

I'm surprised you havent fitted a rheostat Chris...

I've got one off a Mitsubishi if you want to have a play ?

If you still have the original bulbs they will be 3W. Fit some 5W ones, it makes a big difference.
