Your jumper is odd to me because if the blades that are jumpered are both hot or are both ground the jumper makes no sence. It also seems odd that those blades would be exposed if they are hot.

Any way once again I have commented to let you know I am here every day keeping up with your "Grizzifactions".

Thank you for posting Vince.

I have decided to leave that wire alone.

One suggested theory reckons it could be a fog light, here in the U.K. even imported cars have fog lights to the rear, retro fitted.









Amazon delivered last night.

So we have Relay 109 which is often blamed for issues.

Interestingly, half the address was not on the label, including house number and postcode and of course it was Craigs surname on the label.

Yet it made it here.

Pretty Pleased about that.

Made in Germany.




Overnight, another response to a damp interior question from another guy that I had replied to, got another definitive answer.



It confirms in part my and @kevins thoughts about drying out the interior to possibly solve or prevent recurrent issues.

I will report from my iPhone later today as the company iPad and phone are being collected later today.

I will be so naked and vulnerable 😉
