That tool is completely useless for a D2 fob, as i already explained you need the bar code or the code labeled on the PCB no way around that

The new key is not a D2 key

The brown wire in the 3 pin plug should be permannent live from fuse F7 engine bay fusebox, black = earth and red = lighting switch

it's LR009793

No such thing as transponder when it comes to D2 remote fob, it has a "chip"(called "transponder" by those who dont know much about it, shown with red arrow in the pic) which communicates with the passive remobilisation exciter coil which is...

Needed a new front left wheel bearing (hub)

Yes, that's the only way

Looks very similar behaviour with the case from down under, can't you find somebody with Hawkeye or Foxwell or some other multivehicle tool which covers the D2? I observed that all the other tools are quite accurate with the ABS, they are not...

swap the two front sensors and see then, or replace the front left if you have a spare

That sentence is valid completely: "...be aware, the extra wires must not be connected to anything while you unlock with the remote, you must feed them for a second then let them in the air for remote command ... which means to let them spliced...

The pipe with attenuator is from pump outlet to the block, in that scheme is 11 which goes to 13

I dont understand your doubts, i can't explain better than i already did, i said "splice into" which means use posi-taps or skotchlocks or something into the wires as they are, it's nothing about pulling or cutting anything and you can take +12V...

HERE is one for 4HP22 without other suffix which has the VB covered too, i've never seen one dedicated for the D2

I've never cut the sleeve on a genuine one to see how it's inside, that metallic side seems the attenuator but that pipe is definitely not genuine

here's a rough diagram for the pipes

I hate mechanics who are reading a fault code then that's it :mad: If the sensor is new and the code is about it's circuit the logical move would be to check the circuit IMO, the live input while cranking or whilethe engine runs would be the...

The new sensor should be here in a couple of days so will report back if that was the problem or not. Also my mate used his launch code reader and it read it as front left as well

Check the ECU ed plug for oil

In this case seems that nanocom has more kind of oddities when it comes to ABS cos i've seen only cases when the code was wrong and the live reading correct but if the guy from down under was right the probem in this case is with the live reading...

I don't think so, unfortunately the discussion might have got mixed up there a bit... IMO if the code is for the front left but if you unplug that one and the live reading goes to zero on the rear right the problem is the rear right

Hi, it's quite common glitch, you have all the info you need HERE read it all ...btw what year is your D2? maybe i'll find a pattern cos it doesnt happen to all

Read some live data when cold, read some live data when hot and see if there are any anomalies maybe? Welcome to the forum.

IMO they are not 100% the same

That would be revealed also by some live readings unless it's replaced with a known good one based on a hunch

Hi, follow down the the battery main earth lead to not be loose or corroded (i dont know where it is connected on the defender)...according to other site it's: "Partway along the cable there is one 8mm terminal which is bolted to the chassis at...

Seems quite complicated if that's what you mean

No, that would have other symptom like overboost, it would affect acceleration above 2500rpm, find other real specialist who knows how to diagnose a Td5, as i said live inputs are necessary

Unplug the MAF sensor and see how it runs that way... if it runs well a new MAF is needed but only the genuine LR is reliable which is frigging expensive so better without it than with a cheap aftermarket which can mix up things... to avoid a...

Hi, Is it Eu2 or Eu3 engine? manual or auto?

^^^ That's the only straight way to fix it otherwise it's a guessing game
