Where the actual engine loom comes through driversside in the scuttle theres a panel. Its also pretty close to the fuse box

It is but you need to take the plastic scuttle out to see where the loom goes into

thanks for info finally got it sorted as re your advice. one thing this will sound stupid, but when i came to put the scittle back all was ok until last bit which was two small pieces of plastic trim one each end of scuttle,no prob when i got them out but i can't figure how they go back i've tried all ways and they dn't fit right nowhere near  cheers.

Any chance those bit should have gone in first, before the scuttle itself? My car is away at the moment or I would check for you.
