Help!!!! Morag, our motorhome has cooked her wiring loom. the fuses on the sidelights have melted and having spent the best part of the day taking the dash to bits, the wiring loom between the ignition and the glovebox fuse box looks shot. I hoped that I could just run a few new wires but it looks like the whole thing needs replacing.
Although a 1998 model she is too good to scrap, has just had a new clutch and some bodywork done. She is a 2.8 idtd with a good strong engine. Does anyone know if I can get a new/ second hand loom? Also, does anyone know of any auto electric engineers in Dumfries and Galloway/ South West Scotland area who may be able to help?Can anyone help?

My battery is in good condition according to the charger, the volt meter and the green light in the battery. It was new last autumn. I gave it another go and checked that power going through the jump leads and power across the terminals. I tried the negative jump leads on the negative terminal and on the casing but there is still absolutely nothing from the starter motor itself…. very perplexing.
Well Bugsymike, what can I say but THANK YOU so much for all your help. I did order a new starter motor and Morag started on the button. Not a whiff of burning in sight and all electrics working. Now I just need to work out how to put her insides back together😂😂😂😂
