We are having problems with the landing light on our Fox. It is an MR16 domestic lamp, and we are using LED.
At first I assumed it was a wiring problem, then after testing and getting 12 through the system, I assumed both lamps had failed. (Unlikely for LED), but they are fine.
After much testing and frustration it appears that firewall forward I am getting 12v with a meter (Open circuit voltage) but when a load such as the LED light or even a basic 12 torch bulb is put across the connections the voltage drops to near zero.
I am wondering if the circuit breaker could be causing this problem as everything else seems to be working fine.
Any ideas from those of you in know?
