FITTING THE ELECTRICAL KIT

The Britpart heated screen wiring kit, DA1401, (with OEM Land Rover switch for 2002–15 vehicles) includes cables, connectors and relays.

Unscrew and remove the retaining screws, then lift out both of the windscreen demister vents from the dash top panel.

With the instrument panel and the facia ends now removed, unscrew the retaining screw then unclip and lift out the dash top panel assembly.

To fit the wiring and to remove and replace the windscreen, sections of the dash top panel need removing, starting by removing the instruments.

Next, unscrew and remove from the ends of the dash top panel, the panel end facia and the dash top end grab handle panel.

Unscrew the three top and two lower screws holding the Td5 centre instrument/switch console in position to the bulkhead, and release it.

With the console freed, push fit the new heated windscreen on/off switch into a spare socket in the console. You may need to push out a blanking plate first.

Lift any floor matting and sound deadening from the floor and from around the transmission tunnel, ready to run the wiring loom to the new windscreen.

The new heated windscreen wiring loom needs to be fed up behind the instruments panel, and from there to both sides of the windscreen.

With the heated screen wiring loom now installed, the loom and relays need to be fitted and connected in the under seat fuse box.

The Britpart heated windscreen wiring kit has a small relay pack, this can be held in position with double sided tape in the fuse box area.

Find a suitable route to run the wiring loom to the heated windscreen from a live and ignition supply, then install the wiring loom.

A multiplug connection on the new wiring loom needs to be fed along to the instrument/switch console and connected to the new heated screen switch.

Carefully run the heated windscreen wiring loom from under the seat box along the transmission tunnel and then up through the dash.

Once connected, and when the wiring loom is safely routed and not going to be trapped, refit the switch instrument/switch console.
