Got there... but it took too long


Washer - Corroded terminal and pump stuffed
Horn - can hear relay clicking when horn depressed - Horn replaced
Reverse lights - this was bullshit! The slop in the shifter is causing havoc with the rev light switch
Heater fan - had no idea WB had a fan relay. Fuse/relay was blown/melted
temp gauge - sender stuffed
oil switch - switch was stuffed
handbrake warning on dash- dummy light cluster was stuffed - very tricky considering some of the lights on the cluster worked

so I'd convinced myself that 7-8 items that were stuffed had to have a common link. i was wrong. it's was just your typical neglected bucket of shit work ute!

i've learnt a heap and have no regrets as i can only dream I would've paid a auto sparky telephone numbers to fix them all. thanks to all that gave me pointers!
