Dear listfolk
As a mechanic I feel very silly asking this , but we all have our limits don’t we ????
My 1980 2.0 has a wierd problem with the lights ; when I turn them on to the first position the little green
indicator light on the dash comes on , the clock/temp dims , but the sidelights do not come on. The
second switch position brings the headlights on OK ( then dip & full beams work OK ) but still no
sidelights (or switch illumination ). I realise it’s probably just a bad connection somewhere but can
anybody PLEASE tell me where ?? It’s driving me crazy , I’ve checked everywhere I can get to & no luck
!! Oh , and just to confuse things , once or twice recently they’ve come on OK but then the green
indicator lamp doesn’t !!
Thanx in anticipation & hope I can return the favour sometime !!

Did Mark Linzell with the little old red-XM try talking to that other XM mechanic man - Andy Burnett?
Always worth a try for anything (big) Cit especially.
