We were coming back from camping in one of our Mini's, just came off the M5 onto the M6 and the dynamo gives up, all the lights faded out so i had my other half in the back seat with a torch covered by a red sock, and me holding a torch in the front :laugh: came off the M6 and the dynamo decided to kick in again, got some really funny looks that night :laugh: The joys of old motors ay :thumbup1:
Fuse went in my escorts headlight circuit, so bridged it with a bit of thick wire, got home but the fues board melted, lucky it didn't catch fire..........
