It is a cheapie reader which I have used before on an td5 disco I used to have and my TDCi defender but never on a td5 defender. It have checked that there is 12v on the live pin, checked continuity of the two earths, checked the continuity of the wire running back to the ecu. There is one other...

Yes the light works fine on constant on but not altered by any of the doors opening which I know works off the 10as and seeing as I have a red engine light on I didn’t know whether they would go hand in hand with a faulty 10as?

I may have to try another reader then - this one works with my TDCi though.

Hi - has anyone come across the red engine light on (immobiliser light I think) but starts/runs and drives fine. It is on a 06 defender - the other issues I have with it but don’t know if related are that I can’t get a code reader to link through the odb port (powers up but won’t link) and also...

I would say as hes rebuilt it and has the scrap bulkhead for sale - in his other items he has a dented wing that he has replaced and a rear door that he is selling as hes turning it into a rag top! I would say nothing dodgy at all.

I cant understand these comments - i think the puma engine is a million time more pokey on the road than a ropey old TD5 that needs its tits revving off to get going especially with a trailer. The puma is even better if it is remapped - I would prefer a tdi or a puma over a TD5 anyday!!!

Ive just got fully comp on 1995 300tdi 90 for £160 with a classic policy through footman james. I do live in a low insurance risk area (Cornwall) but also seeing as im 26 i thought that was a brilliant amount. The classic policies dont use your no claims bonus either so you can use them for a...
