In this case check if u have the bulbs there.....the previous owner must have disconnected them to hide the 3 amigos....hopefully he wasnt so electrically minded or naughty to cut the earth outputs from the ECU.

yeah i was going to check bulbs tomorrow where is the earth to the ecu?

sierrafery · Jan 10, 2011

The SLABS ECU is providing earth for all related bulbs on different wires and conditions from connector C0504 of it and the bulbs are getting feed from fuse F27(compartment fusebox)...but this one feeds other lamps too so i dont think it's missing.

U have to start from somewhere and the first in this case is the instrument pack..........if u dont have RAVE, or even if u have but u are not experienced in electric measurements its hard to track it anyway.

When I got my disco II the guy had taken the dash off and connected the bulbs up to the oil pressure lamp. So they came on to show they worked but then went off when you started the engine. Very sneaky!!!

Once I reconnected them as should be had the 3 lights on and ended up fitting 3 new sensors and fixing the shuttle valve to finally get them all to stay off.
