Does anyone know if there is a voltage stabilisor in the Series 1 instrument power supply? looked in the WSM but cant see any mention of one, but maybe someone out there knows more?
I have developed synchronised flickering on both the fuel and temp gauges (the frequency being similar to what I would expect if a stabilisor were failing), but first a little background.
In the course of accessing the heater various wires were dislodged and reconnected, in due course I refitted the temp guage wires back to front and blew a fuse.
Since replacing the fuse I now get the above mentioned flickering, although the fuel guage has always had a random wander due I suspect to poor earthing; the temp guage flickers from the start as the engine warms up and wont get up to the normal reading point anymore.
So now I don't know if I have fried the guage or perhaps a stabilisor, all suggestions welcome.
