got to find the ecu in this disco, think its in the passenger foot well somewhere, if there is oil i will change the loom just had the sensor off the inlet side and cleaned it , pump in the boot is squealing like a pig think its about to run out of diesel and now can s a leak from what im thinking is a box with something to do with the ace system, another one to look at def red oil coming out of it under the driver side not a lot but enough just as i think right im done some thing else pops up, ah the pleasures of owning landrovers, dont you just love it!
air flow on disco?

The D2 has the ECU between the battery and the bottle jack, remove the plastic cover and you'll see it

So that could be the cause of bad injector roughness... keep cleaning the red plug once a week after you changed the loom untill all the oil leaves the harness, you'll feel an improvement in the engine's behaviour after the loom change
yea i just spent tn minutes plugging and unplugging then wiping out the oil , will get the harness in the morning and change over, i should have looked i done the defender one last year so that should have been one of the first things but if i had mind you i would have missed the maf sensor
now onto the ace leak hopefully its not the electromagnetic bit and jut the pipe above
so after a wipe down and running the car, looks like the leak is from the filter seal, its not coming from above so could be a result, /easy fix just need to find out if i need to drain the system down and how to do it without buggering up the pump

fookin landrovers, lol
right just checked the maf on the defender put the new one in, still 4 on the nanocom, what fuse is it on the defender to check?
and looking at the nanaocom its throwing up all sorts of errors like abs, ,air con pump, neither of which i have, and its seeing an auto box, and its manual
any ideas?

Are you using a nanocom that has the D2 TD5 unlock codes on a Defender TD5?

If you are using the nanocom unlocked only for D2 on the defender even if it connects to the defender's Td5 engine it might give you erratic readings
no i have a defender td5, unlocked by codes, and a disco td5 again unlock codes from blackbox solutions
so 2 td5 motors one defender one disco 2
am i meant to put the code onto nanocom then remove it before use on the other vehicle, be a bit of a pain?
just when i thought i was all sorted for the min, then the defender decides to go tits up,

I dont think so, if nanocom is coded for both D2 and Defender it should work on both of them... is the ECU in the defender the original one? ... you should check the wiring continuity on the defender's MAF circuit, also check fuse F37(15A) in that fuse holder near the ECU eventually measure if you have 12V on the brown/orange wire of the MAF's plug
thanking you, will get on that in a sec, need to go get my volt meter back from a mate, but will start at the fuse end,
cant figure why its telling me abs ,air con, and auto box problems though seeing i have none of this in the defender

Stupid question .
Did you connect to your Defender but enter into the nanocom menus pressing the Doscovery icon?
Cheersp

no was def on defender checked it twice thought that may have been the issue ,fuses fine must be a broken wire to the maf, will have to get my volt meter out later
ok strange one, got a new maf, still same error ,4kg on the nanaocom , got the volt meter readings all ok,
so i decided oit must be another faulty maf,
took the one off the disco, put it on defender everything hunky dory,
so decided to check the other on the disco, worked fine ,
changed them back around dont work on the defender,
so put it back on disco both fine,
nearly went back to land rover and kicked off, maybe i should as there both td5 engines
done some reading on these fault codes i have on the defender
10-1 air conditioning fan drive open load (logged)
10-3 tachometer open load (logged)
10-4 gearbox/abs drive open load (logged)
10-5 air conditioning clutch open load (logged)
14-1 air conditioning fan drive open load (current)
14-3 tachometer open load (current)
14-4 gearbox/abs drive open load (current)
14-5 air conditioning clutch open load (current)
these are stored in the ecu and dont clear
but reading on an ozzie forum they say these are pre loaded to the ecu for the td5 engine
and on a defender they show up even although you dont have any of this installed ?
any views on this

Based o those codes(which IMO should not be there if the ECU was original corroborated with that intermittent MAF behaviour a good move would be to try with another ECU cos this ine seems fubar to me, unless there is an intermittent bad contact on the MAFcircuit

seems to have the same on his defender?

the problems on his defender are obvious cos it's a '99 Eu2 Td5 which was fitted originally with MSB101171 which was cheange to a NNN500020 Eu3 ECU which was present on D2s too and it's not mentioned if it was remapped to suit the Eu2 Defender or not
