Odd Fuse issue

[speedracer]

Last night whilst driving my tacho, temp, fuel gauges and indicators all stopped working.<br>
<br>
Fuse! I thought.<br>
<br>
Went to inspect said fuse this arvo to find it intact! Turned on ignition, gauges all worked!<br>
<br>
"Odd", i thought.<br>
<br>
Not convinced, i spent all day looking under the dash for suspect wiring. Found some too, partially melted headlight lines from before car had halogens and relay's fitted (>5 years ago)<br>
<br>
Everything still seemed ok so i decided to go for a drive.<br>
Put foot on brake pedal ready to release hand brake ... gauges die...<br>
<br>
"Odd", i thought.<br>
<br>
Checked fuses again - nothing blown.<br>
<br>
Turn on ignition, everything works again.<br>
Touch brake pedal, everything stops and wont start working again until i remove fuse then put it back in.<br>
<br>
Decided to replace visibly ok fuse with another fuse, touched brake, gauges still working this time, kept touching brake, still all good!<br>
<br>
So all that for a dodgy fuse!<br>
<br>
Anyway just thought i'd share that with all of you - i'm off to watch Vol 1 of the Young Ones <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :D --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... /happy.gif ALT=":D"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br>

Cheers,<br>
