Constant noise from rear of Rover Tourer

Hi All,

I noticed a constant high pitched noise from rear of my Rover 75 tourer this morning, found out where it was coming from , at the rear behind the cover where the CD used to be housed. On closer inspection it seems to be coming from the wiring loom that's behind it seemed a tad wet so I dried the l9om and area ,but the noise still continues. Firstly what is all the wiring loom for secondly any ideas what might be causing it and lastly help .

Its the ideal time of year for your thread title to involve some sort of mother in law joke.

If you have a towbar fitted then it will be a dodgy canbus relay.

Yep, that's a canbus relay for your towing electrics, chances are its bitten the dust! Get another then transfer the wiring across, or disconnect the lot if you don't use the towbar.
