hi everybody
i'm ryan from malta
and last january i bought an 1970 austin mini with a 1275cc engine(from a mg metro)
and disk brakes
the car for now is garaged because i'm on the learning time but
the mini now it has a problem with the electrics
so last saturday a switch on the car and nothing and next monday i bought a brand new solenoid that worked well but the windscreen wipers,horn,indicators,break lights and intiror light does not work anymore
but the lamps front and rear work well till today i hope!!!!!!!
i checked the fuse box and i thinked that was a blow fuse only but after i put a 35amp fuses blowed as well what do you think is the problem????

You have a short somewhere there are different ways in which to test for shorts but i would disconect what ever doesnt work one at a time & try what ever blows the fuse will be at fault.

use low rated fuse or test for shorts with a multi meter :)

i think the only way to solve this to get the mini into an electrician
