SO, my latest problem is the #12 Fuse blowing, at first once every month or so, now hard short. This results in no insruments, trip odometer, odometer, backup lights etc. I have (finally) ordered a Bentley Manual, but just thought I would put this query out in case someone had a similar experience... any idea where to start looking for the short?

Once I get the manual, it will be leg work to trace the various paths from Fuse #12... still, not something I really look forward to...

Any insight or similar experience would be most helpful and appreciated.

#12 15 amp / dash panel / reverse lights / auto check systems / abs / diff lock / computer

Problem fixed - wiring short near Speed Sensor, cleaned up, taped, also cleaned / tested Speed Sensor.

Information for others:

This sensor is a 3 wire active device, 12 volts in, ground and centre pin is signal out, apparently an open collector pull down to ground - to test connect 12 volts, ground, then pull up the centre terminal to 12 volts with a 10 K (value not too important) resistor. Centre signal terminal should be a square wave (0-12v-0) as the sensor gear wheel is turned. The output can be observed using a meter or better, an oscilloscope... Sensor couples to an internally mounted gear that turns as the driver's side wheel turns.

Thanks to all for locating this device...

Cheers, Ian
