    LUCAS Isolator - What's the story

    This relates to a Talbot Express and I am unsure whether the Lucas Isolator shown was in the original van when it left the factory is added afterwards. I have also posted this in the TE Facebook group here Once before I posted about a LUCAS Isolator switch There is one on steering column of...

    New Old Van is having a run out

    Thanks @Edina - Will look for some, was thinking of using some bicycle inner tube rubber, I know there is a possibility of breaking more lugs, was going to pre drill them Robert

    New Old Van is having a run out

    So the front lights are fixed after considerable faffing, oxidisation on contacts within 2nd hand indicator replacements not helping! However, as a friend said there is considerable flexing and movement in the whole front end so considering screwing the lugs on the lower parts, some of which are...

    Driving Lighting Upgrade to Talbot Talisman ?

    Luckily I found someone on a Facebook Group who sold me two indicators and two surrounds for £43 posted. The indicator switching relay unit has failed I think so now waiting on one of those before I fit new old indicator

    Indicator Relay Talbot

    Looks Like Indicator relay has gone post Pheasant incident. Have parts for repair but indicator is not flashing and relay does not sound as it should. Image attached. Would this one work in it's place...

    Possible Iveco Could be a Good Starter Base for New Build

    Hiya Phil Yes I am not going to buy it, as I have the Talbot....Yes getting close to being a museum piece, and perhaps not such a good buy. Might get through MOT before Bristish Summer Commences in earnest and flip it for the summer and go on a break somewhere warm and think about my campervan...

    Possible Iveco Could be a Good Starter Base for New Build

    I have a friend who is a welder and would probably do it for very little money - would be tempted myself if I hadn't bought the Talbot but I don't think it would fit on my drive (1st World Problem !)

    Battery Isolator

    That's also what I thought, seems a funny place to have it. At some point, probably when I am doing the Indicator repair, I will try and trace cables and see what they are / where they go. I also agree with the point on the Cable you made. Reasoning behind it - You and me both have no idea! I...

    Pump and Tap needed

    You are joking with this @wildebus Just looking through this thread as looking for help on why water pump isn't working in Talbot. I suspect it has been run dry as the Water Tank Outlet pipe has no valve so Water Tank has not been full in a while. Will do another thread for the question Robert

    Battery Isolator

    Yes that all sounds eminently sensible, thank-you. I wonder why though the switch in the Van I have looks to be diswconnected. As an aside I could not find any LED lighting in your store ? Thanks, Robert

    Battery Isolator

    I posted this in the Talbot Express Facebook Group There is this isolator switch which I believe someone has Correctly Identified as a Lucas Battery Isolator Switch Is this something that is fitted to van's still ? I would think it was used to perhaps isolate the Leisure Battery but now it does...
