Update. Very productive day yesterday. After going through everything again checking the wiring all looked good gettin ppower where I should everything is now working! I'm not 100% sure but I did replace one the connections onto the earth crown as it looked a little fragile, so may have been that. B...

The high beam led now flashes with the hazards on instead of the indicator led, but when you flash main beam it stays on and hazards slow down ! I have cleaned all the earth terminals behind the board, at the battery and changed the gearbox one in the past few weeks. Its a very strange one for me, a...

So I've just changed out the ignition switch for one from my other van and I'm still getting the same issue of no headlights dipped or main and also now no indicators! I was just getting frustrated so I've walked away before I break something! Will have a go tomorrow and check over what I've done so...

Looks like I'm not getting power out the X on the ignition switch when ignition is on so nothing at x relay (86) but if i power the ignition switch cable that goes to 86 i do get power. Points to faulty ignition switch ? I'll need to order one annoyingly, and perhaps looks like i didn't need a light...

Will have a look at it shortly.

I have a spare relay so will swop that out now and will look at ignition switch, van starts no problem so I'd have thought ignition switch would affect that ?
Thanks for the reply

New switch i ordered arrived plugged in and same result no dipped or main beam lights. Strange thing I think is no power coming out of switch my dipped or mains. All the smaller terminals power up when side lights on. Main beam flashes on the stock. And both lights come on if I power them directly a...

My headlights have stopped working, didn't think it was a big deal, checked fuse, checked bulbs, and checked wiring all OK. So I turned my attention to the switch itself. It appears that I'm getting no power out from terminal X or 56 I've tried another switch out my other van and its exactly the sam...

Yes thats exactly what I done !
Swapped them round and adjusted up and now have a pedal.

Thanks for the reply! I did try adjusting the shoes up a bit today and re bleed but still doing the same ill try your drum half on tip incase I'm not quite dragging enough.

Had a similar issue recently, the slow start bit, like you I swapped out battery, starter and cleaned the earth points up. Still the same, added an earth wire from one of the starter bolts to the chassis and it fires up straight away now. So clearly still an earth problem but this seemed to fix it f...

Over the past few (maybe 12) months I've been very slowly working on the T25 to put her back on the road I've replaced all the brakes, lines, flexi's, calipers, cylinders etc etc and put in a new master last week bled the system up was getting a good pedal. Today I pulled the van out the garage firs...

Thanks for all the replies, I'm all sorted now!
Just on case someone else is in the same boat here is a pic of how the cables go

Thought id figured this out, however i have no dash lights now. Did before....... but i now have hazards switch working ! im guessing i have some bad connections in there somewhere. ill keep at it and hopefully everything will work ( i know wishful thinking for a T25)

Ok update, back on it today, my van is an 83 so the later syncro wiring is different, I only have 5 wires.
