Whilst "fixing" fan belt and changing a map pipe. Started up and all was well (ish). Apart from heater fan won't switch on, rev counter won't work at all and wipers and washer jet won't work. All were working fine before I changed fan belt


I have checked all fuses and cleaned connections


It must be something simple I have done but just don't have a clue what any ideas welcome

Well it's clearly the 3rd fuse down (3 5-6 25amp Heater Blower Motor, Windscreen Wipers, Washer Motor & Instruments.) that is to blame. Try spinning the fuse around whilst you get someone to listen out for the heater to work (ignition on and heater on).

If it starts working, then it's probably time to replace the fuse box.

Thanks taffy, same bloody fuse as last time, fuse box will be on order me thinks!!!

Coat the rear contacts on the new box with some Vaseline, then it won't rust out any time soon.

Just don't use Copper Grease, otherwise it will cause a short.
