Yes very true- thanks for posting that up.
It would interesting to know whether the headlight is on the 20amp circuit of the injectors and coils etc. thus following the same pattern at least.

and many thanks to both of you for taking the time to help - glad to see the willingness to assist is still alive after all the years 
I will order one of the diodes suggested at the correct rating and add it back into the circuit where the old one was and then I may even change the insurance to road use (rather than storage) and actually take her for a spin or two  |
Glad we helped a bit, it’s always difficult trying to diagnose without actually being able to trace the wires etc. and even harder without a diagram to follow.
Now get it sorted and enjoy it on those lovely French roads around there.
