I suspect the radiator to be clogged, since the trouble showed up while driving and not while idling. When the engine is hot, is the upper hose unusual hard (high pressure)? Did you make sure all air is out of cooling system?

Yes, sounds like the switch is shot. had the same issue. What you can try is to push it fully in and lock the with something (for me the hair clip of my daughter worked - dont tell her) Try you luck at the scrappies or just get a new one from the stealership. How much can it be?

Fan clutch!

By the way! Here a small update what happened meanwhile. Worked my way back from the starter/solenoid through the electrics. checked all cables for damages - appearently alright. cleaned all contacts on the way. replaced the starter relais (preventive - regular Bosch type, therefore available...

Please read the original post again. the starter and solenoid works fine. So why replace?

Hm, bonnet mounted and disguised as a spare tyre? :smilelol: But seriously some chaps here installed this kind of AC on their Defenders (their AC is even worse :rofl:). Roof mounted and disguised/protected by a full length roof rack.

Situation: RRC and hot environment (UAE - yesterdays temps 42C/108F and 80% humidity) . Have a question: How do you deal with the weak AC in the RRC? Did you make modifications on it? - The system is converted to R134a and honestly it sucks. I ensured that everthing is in working order but...

Out of curiousity: What is this terminal good for? At first glance it looks just like a great place to pick up corrosion and have bad contacts. Is there something connected behind the bulkhead?

American, English, Canadian and Australian ? P M, jokes aside, some here vouch for you in all regards and I didn't want to offend you personally but I am just a bit allergic against generalising things. :bigok: Since it seems that you are well literate and knowlegdeable you know that the...

Paradox, isn't it?

Did you realise who is the owner of the LA Times? Please stop it ! I think you need to travel more to see more (statisicly chances are high that you never left US (military campains not considered), never opened a foreign newspaper and can't point at the countries on a map your free country...

agreed, there is plenty of data collection over here (you have for recognised that I actually life there) but in there honour I have to say its not hidden at all - unlike my home country and don't forget your own. If you disagree, THEY do a good job in disguising!

Educate me what is in the "news" on Dubai? please!

:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl: I just hope this was an outburst of sarcasm (If not: Do you stay on planet earth or somewhere in fairyland?)

I was told to drive it as usual just take it easy on the throttle and don't let it rev over 3000rpm for the first 500 km. then change the oil (check the drain plug for metal splinters) and then you are good to go.

the one at the steering column activated by the key? Sorry for this maybe silly appearing question but going through the electricity parts of the Rangie I am just suprised about the sheer number of electrical parts, terminals, relais and switches all over the place. just to avoid...

cool - thanks learned something

Wasn't that excluded when I mentioned that the starter works a charm when I connect the solenoid directly to the battery? What's that ??

hey LR fellows, need some support from the electro wizards on the forum... The starter on my 1990 RRC is acting up from time to time. symptoms are from weak to hesitant starter turning to no starter movement at all (turn the key and only relais clicking can be heard). so far i checked and...

Hi, have to bring this up again. The light came up again a few times and I just reset all by diconnecting the negative on the battery. BTW this model is not equipped with cats therefore no o2 sensors! today something new came up - the light got on while driving. was standing at a traffic...
