bongo pasted away (heater plugs not working)

Post by stew524u » Wed Dec 30, 2009 4:45 pm

hi got 1996 2wd 2.5td bongo, being running fine, we fetched it back from garage after having the g/box reconned and next day it would not start, heater plugs are good and i removed and checked out h/plug relay which is fine. there is power coming down to the one wire to activate the relay but there seems to be no earth in the black wire. can i run a new earth wire to it. :( :( http://www.igmaynard.co.uk/bongo/forum/ ... e=post&f=3#

There should be an earth certainly, here is the diagram for the relay and plugs on the 1996 WL-T Auto

The earthing points, in this case number 16 is on the engine block at the rear, might be better to check that as there are other things looking for that earth as well!
