Freelander 1 TD4 auto 02 - Hill Descent Light on

Hello All,

Could that also be the brake light switch, as it's only the one no other lights on? The brake lights work.

Very likely. Wife's FL1 does it every few months, but been ok recently sine I cleaned & wiggled it. Got a new brake switch sitting on my desk for next time it happens !!

Thanks. Just talked to LR about it and the bloke said, that it would XKB100170 instead of XKB000010 that I had before. That shall be 38 incl. plus 16 for the switch? Is that what you got?

Bought this one https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/370442100955 It was £18.50 incl VAT & postage.

Yes, that's the one I found. this morning. I have another one in which they sold me some years back, when the other one died. The new one I would need some re-wiring loom as that one here already has, not sure if it'd be that one again then.

Got the new switch yesterday. Tried it, but no change, the other one still works as at least the cruise control works. I read herehttps://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/3-amigos-fault-help.376277/#post-5293192 through the off/off/on's and was wondering if it could be related to the sport mode in which it slipped recently again, because I had the rubber band off and drove quite a while in sport mode w/o gearing? What could I do to test it? Just to drive in sport mode properly?

Sport mode only changes the gear up shift points, nothing more.
You can try it, but I can't see sport mode affecting the braking system.

RIght, ok. I am not sure if I understand what you mean, but tried it and it seemed to have geared itself. Will test the other switch, even though it's just three years old. Hope that'll fix it.
