Weird Electrical Problems after Body Off...

[WinkleHoff]

Strange one this.

Had the outriggers sorted (nice job), but since then I have had strange electrical issues which weren't occurring before the work was done by the garage - the first instance took place when I picked the car up and drove it home.

Whats happening is that the indicator lights flicker strangely, both go on, then flicker dimly and erratically, all very random. Wipers also turn themselves on randomly and also seem to be triggered by turning on the main headlights.

Something has obviously happened during the body off. Question is, what? If it is an easy fix I would have a go myself and save the journey back to the garage, but I fear that it may not be that easy. Earth problem? How are the headlights/indicators/wipers inter-related electrically?

Any help appreciated!

Cheers all, hope you are making the most of the weather...

Body off = earths disconnected. There's a good list of earth points on chimaerapages.com - bad earth would definitely be my first thing to eliminate.
