Thanks yet again all who've replied above. Some further developments now. Subsequent to further tests on it today, and a lot more research, I've discovered a few things. First, I managed to get a copy of a Factory Service Manual, albeit a U.S. spec one - but most components appear to be the...

OK, thanks for the info - I'll certainly give that a try. Watch this space...
