I've been continuing the strip my 325 at the weekend and a couple of things happened.

1. I made a balls up of the roof trying to remove the sunroof cage, but thats another story.

2. The OBC has gone dead and the rev counter gave up the ghost at the same time. What could have caused this? The only electrical area I went near (from memory) is the sunroof motor which I have removed. Is there anything related to that which could have caused the issue? Oh and I ripped the interior lights out too. I could have blown a fuse I guess, is the OBC and tacho connected in any way?


Cheers

Fuse 21 is common to interior lights, OBC and tacho.
