Up date - it’s fixed - turns out it was a broken wire between the Lamp Control Module and the and the Body Control Module (YS)… this was replaced and the diode connection was added to this new wire.
Never did find the actual diode unit….

Re: Car cover
Hi, I can recommend Classic Additions, Montgomery, Shropshire, I’ve used them for the past 10+ years.
I use a lightweight outdoor cover throughout the year, however I also use an Ultimate outdoor cover during the extreme full on summer sun.

I’ve ruled out the rear of the steering wheel touching the plastic housing the indicators/windscreen wiper etc arms, as I would expect it to be noisy at every turn......

Remote fob - can an XK8 1999 be used on a 2003 model
Hi, I have a really good condition remote fob from a 1999 XK8, I know they are slightly different in appearance but could the 2003 car be programmed to accept the 1999 version?
