Electric window switch confusion
Hi folks, appreciate some advice relating to electric window switches fitted to my 90 TD5.

I can’t seem to identify if these are OE Defender switches or from some other LR vehicle ?

One of them no longer illuminates - is it possible to replace the bulb?

Appreciate the help.

Thanks but the description says this is for a 6 pin connector, not the 5 pin connector my TD5 has - anyone know of any available that are a straight swap for the 5 pin ?

Used to have an old VW Polo, 6n1, with a switch that externally looked identical as the LandRover ones. However do not know pin layout.

Looks like switch P/N AMR2496.
I don’t think the LED is available, just get a new one for around £10.

Discovery 1 switches look very similar to Defender ones but have 6.3mm spade terminals on the back rather than the in-line AMP connectors used on the Defender ones.

I used some on my TD5 retrofit originally. However the terminal layout doesnt look the same as the one you have pictured

The window switches in the OP's post, are from the Britpart electric windows kit DA4664

They are not the same as the 300Tdi Discovery-1 and RRC Softdash switch AMR2496 -



AMR2496 appears to be the same as the VW switch, and uses the same connector with 6.3mm Standard Timer receptacles -

Thanks Paul, very helpful . I think I’ll have to change to the LR 6 pin type, I cannot find just those Britpart switches outside of the kit…

Thanks for the help guys.

I've got a couple of the Britpart switches - brand new and unused.

I fitted a couple of these Britpart window kits and used Land Rover switches (YUF101521LNF) with them.

If you want them - £10.00 each + £4.65 for 1st class small parcel P&P

Hello Paul MC,

I am a new user here. I am looking for the Britpart 5 pole switches for a Defender 90 Truck Cab that was converted to Electric Windows from Manual winders. One of the switches is no longer working, and I cannot find a replacement 5 pole switch anywhere

Are you still able to assist ? As a new user I am not allowed to PM you until I have posted enough messages !

Thank you
Andrew

Hello Andrew,

I still have a pair of these switches - brand new and unused.

The price for the switches is £10 each, I'll have to check what RM are now charging for postage.

To increase your post count, go to https://www.defender2.net/forum/topic233.html and introduce yourself.

Or, go to https://www.defender2.net/forum/my-defender-vf4.html and tell us about your Defender.

Cheers,
Paul. Paul.

Thank you Paul !

I will get my post count up, and then send you a PM. Please hold these 2 switches for me. I will send you a UK address in my PM that I will be able to collect them from in a few days.

My Defender TdCi in Portugal was converted with the Britpart kit. The other day the switch started smoking when activated, and I think this is due to the resistor that drives the LED for the green lighting. I cut off the LED and resistor, and the switch started working again, however it has now stopped lifting the window and only activates the lowering side of the switch. I presume this might be a wiring issue ? The rubber grommet on the door side carrying the central locking and window activation wires is not seated in the door card, and I am trying to find some pictures of how this should seat.

I would also like to replace the wiring between the body and the door, since I think there might be a break in a wire. If I jiggle the wires, the switch activates the window up.

Any idea of the correct gauge of wire to use here ?

Thanks
Andrew
