2014 Freelander 2 SD4 SE Auto Santorini Black

It was a mini piggyback fuse. Learned to drive in 2011.
Bought a Micra - great little car
"Upgraded" to Kia Sportage - hated it
Proper upgrade to FL2 TD4 GS 60 reg Facelift - tailgate paint issues, fuel gauge rewire, transfer box failure at 36k miles, clutch at 60k
Reconditioned diff at 70k ish
Sold at 84k and now on a DS. Terribly unreliable.
Sold DS for a 2021 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV. Fingers crossed....
Sold Outlander for a 2014 SD4 SE Tech because I’m mental

Ok thanks. One last question.. With the piggyback fuse you connect the positive feed to that...where do you connect the negative feed? 2007 FL2 GS in Izmir Blue

There is no negative. Just a red wire and an earth. Learned to drive in 2011.

The whole of the vehicle body is negative, earth is a misleading term that is widely used.
Most metal studs and screws around the car will provide a suitable negative connection, this also needs to be of a sufficient size and as good a connection as the positive

Yup. Do a search as there is a more detailed thread with photos. That will be more help. Learned to drive in 2011.
