Thanks, is there any way of testing/eliminating this... The light in the back hatch door doesnt work either but the bulb is OK, maybe a similar issue? Steve

Thanks, I've tried this and it is set to lights on but the main centre light doesnt work. The small ones do. The bulb is OK... Steve

Thanks, I will hook up to Faultmate and explore the points you that you suggested. The interior courtesy light has also stopped coming on when unlocked/key removed etc..tested the bulb and its OK so i'm confused. Steve

Hi, I have a 2001 P38 Are the indicators supposed to flash when the doors are locked and unlocked with the remote key fob. Locks and alarms OK but the indicators dont flash. I often therefore have to double check to be sure... Any idea why it no longer flashes? Cheers, Steve

BBS, I think there would be a good level of interest, especially if it is aimed at the enthusiast/beginner like me rather than experienced technicians? PS Dave.Wade - dont be paranoid - these are complicated machines for which we need all the help we can get to beat the main stealers. I...

As I said, like things to work right...

Nah, Thats for soft Jocks - I'm not cold, I just like things to work right!

In this freezing weather I've found that my heated seats on my 2001 P38 do actually work (a bit). I didnt think they did but in these extremes it is noticable. As I say its noticable - not warm. Is there anything I can do to make them warmer - they are the coldest "working" heated seats I have...

I could do with some help with my Faultmate Extreme to get good use out of it!

It's not always so straightforward, even if you have a good case, which you have. It can take months if the trader is sharp. It goes something like this 1) You issue summons - he gets 14 days to respond 2) He acknowledges receipt of summons - 14 days now extended to 28 days. 3) He files a...

If the solicitor tries to haggle - don't get drawn in. State you require full refund immediately otherwise summons will be issued as previously notified. Tell him that due to the gross misrepresentation by his client you will most certainly win at court. Once the summns is isued you will...

Just been checking it again. As I shift down from D to 3 to 2 to 1 it does feel as though it may be "clicking" into 1, although if it is it does seem v close to 2 but the lamp and the display both still show 2. Dont know if it could be possible to be in 1 and show 2? Also looked at Rave...

The lights light up next to the gear lever and they match the display on the message centre. It feels as though the gear stick cant go far enough back for position 1 so the light by the stich and the message centre still display 2... Cheers, Steve

Trouble selecting position 1 on gear selection, both ratios. Its a P38 2001 model 4.0 Auto petrol. When the selector is pulled fully back it only endgges down to position 2. Can not get to 1. Other than this it drives OK on all other options. Any idea what this could be? Thanks, Steve

Cheers, Somehow managed to get 5 & 6 crossed over. Now corrected and misfire cured. Steve

Does anyone know the numbering of the connections on the ignition coil pack. My leads and plugs have been changed and I need to verify if they are correct. Its a P38. 4.0 petrol 2001 model. 2 rows of 4 sockets one above the other.. According to faultmate there is misfiring and rough...

Thanks for the advice - am about 6' tall didnt thing it would make much diff from 1 yr to another ... Cheers

Thinking about an Defender - 06/07 year. Currently have a P38 which I use as my main car. I like the look of them but I've never driven a Defender - what are they like for noise/comfort. Will it be tolerable? Thanks, Steve

All this stuff about fixin it and trusting afterwards it is a major distraction. The more you consider this the lower your expectations will be. Thats what the trader will hope for. Its mind games time. You have been stiffed. Get your money back. Accept nothing less. Dont be distracted - up...

Thanks mate, Great help. Steve
