I think you'll find that a lot of 'accessories' run off that brown wire. Are all the electric windows working ? The wires to the doors are prime candidates for getting pinched and partially shorting to earth (it happened to me). Also, if you have the later electric seat model - are the seats moving properly ? Both are typical British Leyland problems - combine poor design of the way the wires are routed with insufficient testing.
