I'd just like to point out that I took care to say "that I can think of" - in other words it's not something I ever paid attention to because I understand what a capacitor is and why it would be there. Thank you for drawing my attention to how many there are (still not "loads" however).

Oh, and across the fan motors I believe (note I said *part of the main loom*). Where are the rest of the "large number" of these ubiquitous devices?" Message #85566: "Well done, Bill, the sum total is 4 capacitors which are part of the loom." There are at least 12 capacitors in the wiring harness itself, not counting capacitors added to K-Jet during assembly. Unless Martin cares now to argue that I doctored the photos....
