By pure luck I cut into the "bulky part" of the loom just behind the head stock to find than either side of a well hidden "lump" on the side light circuit I was getting no continuity ..... offending item bypassed as a test and all works ..... so now has been permanently removed and the two ends of the wire correctly connected and all is good again ..... you have got to love 18 year old dodgy italien electrics  
For those interested here is the chuffing part that is dead and causing all the problems ....
Thanks all for your help - we got there in the end  |
There is no way that's factory fitted by the soldering for a start. Maybe he thought wiring poor standard in first place. Thought he knew better. I think not so.
Glad its sorted now.
