No way round it remove the undertray it only take 15 minutes most after i adapted mine it only took 3 minutes

Hi, Now that I have a nice under-engine protection tray, I cant get to the bottom hose from underneath to drain it. I can see it from the top and there is loads of space around it and I can loosen the clip, but my arms aren't long enough to grab...

Hi there , I had to take out my radio/cassette (FL1 03 plate) it needs an allen key (cant remember the size) and you loosen a screw in the hole which releases the holing plate, the radio then just pulls out, refit is the opposite taking care not...

It would seem logical to me that you can't defeat deadlock by reaching in through an open window and hitting a switch. Edit: I just tried. If I lock with the fob then it deadlocks, and the interior switch now does absolutely nothing. if I lock...

Thanks, that is very helpful Is it possible that the switch only asks the 27VT to operate the door lock motors but not the deadlock motors, whereas the fob can ask the 27VT to operate the door lock motors and the deadlock motors? My doorlock...

Sounds like a toggle switch failure. You find the window toggle switch can fail too sometimes 🤨

As far as I know the door locks are all driven by the 27VT body control module. I don't think that any of the switches are connected to the door lock motors in any way. Basically the switches are all just "requests" to the 27VT and it's the 27VT...

I found this page informative about the various systems in the FL1 over the years https://www.remotekey.co.uk/help/land-rover-freelander-key-fob-and-immobiliser-problems/

Is that video after the smoke has cleared? Mine does the same thing, but much more grey smoke, and lumpy for a few minutes. I cleared out the inlet manifold last summer and it cleared it. It was good since, until it started warming up and now...

Thanks! No door card removal All levers open the doors manually Drivers door and all others lock with fob but not dash button, which I find strange Lots of motions heard, I think in all doors, but I think that is only the deadlock motors, I think...

Start with the driver door lock first motors. Sitting inside have you had the door card off recently, as the levers should open manually. Second beeb open all doors and tailgate. Inside the vehicle the console button opens all. Have listen to the...

Hi I now have two working fobs They both lock all doors and 'undeadlock' the doors (clunks heard) but dont pop the buttons up. The drivers door button used to pop up, but recently gave up the ghost. I presume this is motors in locks. But, the...

I got the fob back to Portugal and finally today got it programmed on someone's Hawkeye. Works perfectly! I just wish my locking motors all did too :rolleyes: Now I have a spare!
