You want to check all the relevent terminals for conectivity. I had nothing working - zilch ten minutes after rolling onto a site a few weeks back. Checked all the fuses - nowt. Touched the battery terminal - which was tight on, and it all came to life! Whipped it off and cleaned it - job sorted. Just shows how you can lose power so easy.

Taking a guess that it may be the voltage regulator on the back of the instrument panel.

Not specifically orange - but one from a reputable outlet will be orange so it stands out. Itll also have the correct, good quality plugs/cable, which is more important. Pick a good seller off ebay, there are plenty, and you'll get the length you want for a decent price.

i would buy an orange one and make sure it has 240v connections not 110v .Yes it could be a voltage regulator on the rear of the dial pack on the dashboard.

Any probs give us a shout
