+2 Bonnet Light Micro Switch

eehhm.... yes!
BUT, I only got the car in august, and was too busy polishing and driving to care about such insignificancies as checking lightbulbs..... Now it's packed away for the winter.

Rohan,

That is far too obvious for my feeble mind to think of on its own probably, in part, because the connectors have been soldered onto the wiring (no idea why) and not removeable at one end.

Something else to do over the winter.

Hamish.

- Only one fog lamp working

Note that it if it's a Plus 2S it may only have one fog lamp. The other may well be a spot lamp on a separate switch. The lenses are different. The spot lamp is almost clear glass, the fog lamp has a diffraction lens.

really? And where could this switch be........

[niallf]

In the +2S (and S130, I think) there are two 'dash type' switches in the trim to the right of the steering wheel (rhd). One is a latching switch for the fog lamp, the other is a momentary switch for the spot lamp.

Thor,

I had the same lights not working in my federal 72 +2 S130, exccept for the fog lamps, that you do. I pushed the thickest group of wires back through the bulkhead in to the cabin and the problem was solved. A lot of the courtesy lights are all on the same circut.

My fog lamps are each wired to separate switches in the lower facia trim to one side of the steering wheel. Not sure if this is the original config.
