    Door lock barrel shim......

    Hi everyone, I'm working my way through the annoying snags on my Disco 1.. The drivers door lock goes round & round ( isn't that a song? ) Where can I buy the plastic rear shim on the back of the barrel that is broken...is it possible to buy new or is it scrap yard only? I can't find one online...

    Fuel pump power issue...

    OK, thanks I will try that when the ecu arrives back. Yes, the key fob works OK, I only have the one but it works.

    Fuel pump power issue...

    Well, an update: I sent the ecu to that company you put me on to. They just called to say that it is working as it should, no problem at all. So, the mystery continues! On it's return, any pointers as to what I should try / test next?

    Discovery 1 V8 test ecu needed...

    OK, thanks that's good to know. Do the VIN no's only apply to series 1 models? ie would a series 2 have a different type? & does it have to be a PRC 9235 specifically?

    Fuel pump power issue...

    Aah OK, thanks. So the power to it is OK, well that's something I guess. I will get another ecu if I can then & try it. Cheers.

    Fuel pump power issue...

    Thanks for your help up to this point. I I'm keen to understand the readings: which part of the readings make you think the ecu is very suspect?...& what should the readings be?

    No, the plug was not connected. Should I do it again? The vehicle is across the road in a car park....I will nip over & check the voltage on the battery now....

    Fuel pump power issue...

    OK, been out there cleaning earth terminals. Maybe a waste of time but I feel better for doing it. I turned power off removed the plug to the ecu. Then dismantled ecu plug body to reveal wiring. Then reconnected power & tested with ignition on. There is a group of black wires together. Voltage...

    Discovery 1 V8 test ecu needed...

    Hi, I have a recently acquired (this week) '93 3.5 litre V8 auto. Having joined the forum & spent the week trying to solve a non starting / fuel issue, I have now been directed to focus on the fuel injection ecu. Does anyone out there have a known good one I can try / borrow to see if it solves...

    Fuel pump power issue...

    Oh, I'm fast getting out of my comfort zone, I was hoping I could fix it without needing to mess around with the ecu. Hey ho, I need to decide if I wish to continue, I need to find out how much a new ecu is, if it's expensive then I may need to re-think & let the car go. It's a shame because she...
