Chasing ghosts !
I spent the afternoon attempting to find the cause of the power feed (brown/blue) from behind dash to ignition switch becoming warm to the touch. Voltage drop from battery to switch is slightly high, most of it dropped between the bulkhead and switch .... This is going to be fun. While investigating I found the brown wire at the ignition switch had 12v on the end when it should be taking it from the switch connection All VERY Elan.
After some time investigating I traced the cause of the unwanted 12v was a back feed due to the disconnected courtesy light switches. You're never bored with Elan wiring ..... Confused, frustrated but not bored.
