The rebuild of Jemima Puddleduck

[jimmyjamjar]

At last ! Jemima now has power! for the first time in 17 years the lights have shone, Whoopee!. It was a bit of a mission as when I put the wiring loom back in there were all sorts of weird thing happening, no feeds to indicators, no connections between switches and other parts of the loom. So in the end I stripped the heater unit out again, removed the loom from the car and laid it out on the patio table and called in my friend who understand the dark art of car wiring. After a few hours of testing and testing, checking and other stuff I did not understand we put it all back again and after connecting the power back on from the battery urika there was light, and indicators and all those good things. Best of all no blue smoke!
Only a few things still to be done like wiring the driving lamps, the hooter and other minor connections. BUT I have a problem, the windscreen wiper motor is making the most horrible screeching sound, so I will have to investigate that.

Next step is to do the new headlining and get the glass in so I can now definitely see light at the end of the tunnel .
