Looking for EAS diagnostic port, 1995 RR Country

At first I thought neighbors RR was a 1994. Turns out it was manufactired in June 1994 but is a 1995 model. I invested in a 1995 manual but some of the pictures do not match the actual hardware. There is a lot of stuff missing from the manual. Now I am not sure if this beast is known as the Classic , P-38 or what!

I found the EAS unit under the left hand drivers seat and there is a loose connector lying right up front. Could that be the diagonistic port?

That my man is a Range Rover Classic.

I've never looked at a motor with EAS but I suspect the ABS ecu is under that seat and the plug is for the ABS but do check. If I get a chance over the weekend I will see if I can find any reference inthe workshop manual unless somebody else in here knows for sure.

that would be known as a lse over here

I concur!!

But I have to admit I know B all about EAS. I do know that for some odd reason Rangies and Discos do develop a bit of a lean when they get old. I wonder if it might simply be a case of putting new dampers on it and then checking the air springs for leaks. Hey ho. I'm sure somebody in here knows all that is required on EAS faults.

Like you, I have a softdash RRC running on air. I have an EAS Kicker from BBS which comes with the correct connector for that blue plug. Works a treat and is the easiest way of sorting it out.

I'm not sure if the free diagnostics is going to work for you unless you're really good at electronics as all the available cables except the BBS one are for the OBD socket. It would be worth your while contacting Storey Wilson on here to see if he can help you out.


Where are you, you might put your location in your profile, someone with diags might be nearby.

O.K. according to the workshop manual the EAS ECU is located under the right hand seat on top of the EFI ECU. Apparently there is a disable switch which has no markings. In the disable position, the bottom of the switch is pushed in. This will disable the system below speeds of 35MPH. It might be worth making sure the switch is "ON"

According to the manual, the serial link connector plug is BLACK. The ECU will flash the raise and lower lamps for 30sec followed by continuous illumination if it registers a fault.

I'm afraid I have no idea about reading fault codes; you'd need to take it to a stealer and get it plugged in.

OK guys, I put up my profile. I live in "the other Arizona" meaning not desert. I lived in the Mojave Desert in California for 50 years and wanted something green when I retired. My house is at 7289 ft elevation. We had snow on the ground from October to mid-May. The 4wd's are a necessity. With the help of this form I am becoming a quick study on the Rover Classic. So far I have solved the puzzle with the vacuum lines that operate the Cruise Control. Now if I can just work out the EAS problem I can get this beast off my driveway. Thank you to all responders

You need to have a look here, RSW is based in the USA.

Arch shaped fault lamp is lighted on the dash. Up/down arrow lamps flash then on steady. The vehicle has a 2cm list to the left side.
