Only had the 8v for a few days, i wanna sort some niggly faults.
1. Handbrake warning light always on. (Not switch ive checked).
2. No reading for oil temperature.
I think these might be related, as both have brown/yellow wires to them.

ahh. ok well the sender for the mfa oil temp is at the front of the engine it is one of the 2 ontop of the oil filter housing check it is connected. the handbrake i dunno about the switches are pretty simple and thats a simple circuit so its gotta be the swutch or its mounting point i reckon.  give it a bit of time and someone will put a pic up for u, probably RJ

remember the oil temp doesn't show up till the oil gets over 50 degrees ;)
As for the HB light, sounds like the wires have shorted together if the switch is defo ok (have you tried disconnecting both wires from it?)

I have a pdf copy of the MK2 Haynes and also the Bentley, plus several good wiring diagram PDFs :)
