nothing works when I go through the gears. I tried all and nothing. I checked the new wire on 932 Pin 17&15 and nothing=243 works on male side properly. It worked also yesterday between 243 and 932. I am not sure but I think it might be the female side or the connectors.
C0932 => C0243 Change wire

I was expecting you to bypass the 2 barrel connectors with 2 crimps (black) and extra cable (blue) to join the faulty (red) wires without the going through the barrel connectors. This would fix you broken red wire if it is where you suggest, where the cable connects inside the connector.
If you have done more than 1 repair at the same time then this will be difficult to fault find. Changing a solenoid to see if it fixes the problem is 1 fix. Repairing the wires is another fix. Incorrect oil level causes all sorts of strange problems.
You need to make sure it has the correct amount of auto oil. Too low or too high and you risk damage. I can't advise what too low or too high is, but from someone who has had an auto changed due to low oil (it leaked and failed) then I suggest you set the auto oil correctly.

Hi Hippo,
here's an update on the repair status. Sorry it took a while. As I didn't have time I found a guy in Germany with a LR garage who worked on it. Was a bit of a mess in the beginning but seems now to have worked out well.
He first checked the cables going into the Jatco and assumed the problem to come from that. Unfortunately the spare used one he had, had exactly that failure
so he ordered a new one. Didn't work out, still more or less the same trouble.
He then changed the whole valve assy for an used spare one he had laying around and got a bit better results, but he said still not as it should be hence talked to the Jatco guys. I think after that he opened the gearbox like tacr2man on one of his ones and checked everything in there but nothing wrong. He then changed some more solenoids, which I thought might be the cause but that didn't work out either. He said they measured ones with good values, next time again not and then better and so on. To get to the ground they took off the battery compartment and checked the cables. Somewhere there one or two were defect cause they rubbed somewhere on metal and damaged somehow one for the Jatco as well. They replaced everything and now everything seems to work again. The one I changed didn't look to good but it worked he said. I think he made it a bit more professional now.
Overall he said it cost 320Euros which I think is a good price as it included some other part he exchanged as he said was defect. It took a while but I were not in Germany anyway.
I asked him also to change the power steering pump. He said for 50-60 Euros excluding the oil. He used my 'old' Jatco oil for it.
I think that's great and would defiantly recommend that guy if anyone's got trouble trouble in central/southern Germany with his LR. He's the owner and did it more or less in his spare time as far as I understood, hence a better price.
Haven't driven it though but think everything should be fine now. I hope I can go there soon to pick 'em up.
Thanks for all the help in here.
Regards
Matthias
