Discovery 3 loom

Hi dose anyone have a complete wiring loom.for a Discovery 3 ? Please

You need to contact a specialist dismantler, giving them the part numbers needed. There are literally dozens of harness variables depending on year, spec, power unit, gearbox type and so on.

Thank you might be easier to go to springs then

What is the actual problem that requires a complete loom.
But now you think its cheaper to go to springs, so guessing its suspension related.
Probably better to present your problem to the gurus first?

The problem is the connection plug that goes over the rear axle, is damaged eg: broken down wires they think. So was seeing if I could get another loon to swap bits.

Who is "They"
I dont see anything that suggest a spring conversion, or replacement loom yet.

Trying to find the right one. Think I've found someone who can make the new section I need, so at least it'll be new.

hi

Plus 1 ref contacting a breakers , trying to think of the connector ur talking about, do u happen to have a picture of it as may be able to find a part number for u , at least then ur be able to make up a new loom yourself

sounds Like there not 100% sure if it’s a broken wire etc , have they got any fault codes and what is the susp doing plse

personally wouldn’t ever change them to coils, in fairness the suspension system if properly maintained is very good

hope that also helps

It's not giving a signal back so guessing broken wire somewhere between front and rear,

Hiya

see the coil conversion kits are around £900 , so wouldn’t get much change out of £1500 if done by a garage

indeed think it ruins them

As said think it would ruin it as well.

if that’s the case is very simple as all they need to do is bell the wires out one by one to find the break

any fault codes plse as that will also help a lot

hope that helps

indeed , alas many of us have been in the same boat , if time is taken to just test the loom step by step along with using diagnostic live data / multimeter can narrow it down without too much hassle

Not the way to go and if you actually brought all the kit to fix what you have it wouldn't amount to the much .

Man math.

If your able? we dont know OP ability.

You all good Gary? Have a good Xmas.

They are saying the wires are corroded would take to much time to cut them back solder new ones in

Make your own loom one wire at a time, use superseal connectors for the joint over the chassis rail.
Do not solder, solder is proper dogshti outside of the cabin, use the heat shrink re/blue crimps.

I would say they do not want the job, find yourself a mobile auto electrician.

Here we go again “they”.

What can you do yourself?

As marjon said mate, if you're half handy you can prob sort this with a bit of time

@gstuart dont they rub thru in a certain place?
