Visiting www.discovery2.co.uk, I just read a very good explanation of how to change the injector harness on a Disco 2. Very clear and concise instructions that anyone could follow.
As I understand it the oil gets to the ECU red socket via capillary action after passing the leaking O rings on the bottom connector of the injector harness. So replacement of the harness with a new one overcomes the failed O rings and cleaning the red plug and socket of the oily mess.
Now the bit I don't really follow in all the threads I have seen on this subject is, what about the wiring loom from the cylinder head to the red plug and the ECU that we have just cleaned, surely there will be oil on and in that loom too? Or am I over complicating it?
