    central locking problem.

    following on.... Just tried plugging the battery monitor in again with disco not running and its showing 5volts going to the cigarette socket. goes up to a nice 14volts when started. no flashing LED for alarm active when locked so im assuming that something is keeping my disco awake and stopping...

    central locking problem.

    was just starting to feel good about my disco. Got most jobs sorted when, 3 days ago, it wouldn't lock on the fob. It gives the false lock beep and nothing else. The bonnet connector was disconnected in November when I bought the vehicle cos this sometimes gave the same false locking. Yesterday...

    Squealing When I Start To Accelerate

    my squealing was a warped exhaust manifold but did it all the time above 2000 revs. might be worth looking for snapped studs on the manifold or signs a carbon coming from the gasket.

    Headlight level adjuster not working.

    Guys. My headlight level adjuster dosent work. It seems to be pointing very low and i cant find a way to raise it. I have discussed it with a landy owner pal of mine and he says his has never worked while he has owned his. I cant just leave this as he has. I cant find any fuse relating to the...

    Soddin courtesy lights.

    arrgggggg. Now the rear wiper has packed in. The jet still works and fuses are ok so i suspect ive disturbed something around the connector for the courtesy lights as i believe the feed for the rear wiper is close by. well it will have to wait till my night shifts have finished. im glad all i...

    Soddin courtesy lights.

    And completion....... After some stretching exercises and with torch in hand I managed to get into an interesting position where I could get a close look at the connecters sierrafery posted about and sure enough the purple/blue one was corroded a little. So just to be on safe side I cut both...

    Soddin courtesy lights.

    well to continue. Had my tester out again and there is defo some current (300mA) flowing when the doors are open but it aint getting to the lights. This current slowly drops off after a few seconds when I chose the doors. Also, I get the ding ding when I open drivers door with the lights on so...

    BAHH. battery drain.

    tried with my tester this morning and following the initial start of about .5Amps it dropped to nearly nothing. I did notice that the quiet space invaders sound from the abs module (think that's what it is) wasn't there. Ive pulled all the fuses in the engine area before and didn't get below...

    BAHH. battery drain.

    must be a constant drain to kill the battery within 4 days with no use. Would be a great result if the drain was from the radio cassette I replaced. But im not that lucky :)

    BAHH. battery drain.

    Just had halfords give my battery a thumbs up. This saves me £100 but gives me the task of finding whats killing the battery if I leave it for more than 3 days. Ive tested the drain and it seems to be 0.3 Amps. Ive only pulled fuses from under bonnet so I guess its all the others to try next...

    Soddin courtesy lights.

    Still unable to track down why my courtesy lights will not come on when the doors are open or when the fob is pressed with the switch selected to middle. They all work ok on the ON switch and the light ring around the ignition key slot comes on but that's it. Ive checked the block and wires...

    courtesy light problem.

    Is this passanger side footwell a normal removable panel like the one on drivers side for fuses etc. cos I cant find one. Or is it removed with a screwdriver etc?

    courtesy light problem.

    Lights work when ON but will not work when on middle switch when doors open or fob pressed. The light by the ignition comes on when door is opened. No warning sound when I open door with lights on. It worked a week ago but I have pulled a few fuses since then looking for a drain. But didn't...

    courtesy light problem.

    I have the lights at to the middle switch and they come on when I select ON. The light around the ignition comes on so I'm guessing it's a loose or corroded connector somewhere.

    courtesy light problem.

    Having only had my disco for 3 weeks im a little unsure of a few things. What I have noticed is that the courtesy lights no longer come on when I open any of the doors but are ok on the local buttons. they did work a couple of weeks ago until my battery went flat and I pulled a few fuses looking...

    300mA battery drain not from SLABS

    just got my disco back from having a warped exhaust manifold ADAQUATLY repaired and was able to pull some fuses again while I still had day light. what started me off was as I was looking at the fix on the manifold I could hear the "space invaders" sound people have posted about coming from a...

    300mA battery drain not from SLABS

    Hi guys. I have a battery drain showing 0.3 amps which I think is 300mA (correct me if im wrong). I thought id hit the nail on the head with your posting on SLABS ECU but having pulled the fuse and relay for the abs the drain is still there. It has only let me down the once and now after I was...

    Broken Exhaust manifold studs

    Got a reply from the selling garage saying to return my disco for repair. Pleasantly shocked. Was expecting a problem. just goes to show im not as good a judge of character as I thought. Not looking forward to the 1 1/2 hour drive to drop it off and same when I pick it up though.
