I am in the process of solving 3 amigos and will be using all the useful tips from this great forum. I have read the ECU and have: 20-01 Pump Relay Open Circuit 254 times 24-05 Front Right Hand Sensor Intermitent - 254 times Q1) Since the two must be linked is the Pump Relay 20-01...

I have just fixed my flashing lights by separating the terminal block connector adjacent the XYZ switch. Had some minor green deposits on it where water from aircon hose drips over this connector and the switch (terrible design!) causing corrosion. Sprayed with WD40 and re-asembled and all...

Thanks for your email - I have now posted some pictures. It doesn't look like the Tunit TD5 unit. Is it an older version of what is on their website?

I have found a black box 100 x 75 x 30mm strapped to the rear of the engine compartment fuse/relay board. It has a serial port output, a red supply linked to the +ve battery terminal, a black neutral and approx 6 yellow wires tapped into the ECU plug by the battery. Seems like it must be an...

I had the autogearbox warning lights come on on my Disco 2 before Christmas on a dark night going up a very steep hill. Thanks to a forum tip I concluded this was voltage related caused by a failing battery. I charged the battery overnight each day during the cold snap and all was fine. One...

Urban Panzer Thanks for confirming about battery voltage and the gearbox warning lights. I went on a short test run this morning and with battery recharged it seemed fine. Just going out on a longer run to test further. From what I have read the Nanocom will enable me to read and clear the 3...

Just as the snow and ice falls my Disco doesn't want to play! I started suffering an intermitent ABS warning light coming on that reset itself on restarting the engine. This built up to the full 3 amigos. So I have a Nanocom on the Christmas list to check the codes and resolve that one. Then...

Have you got it fixed now? If so can you supply an update? I have just come home from doing a friend a favour and picking his son up to take him to football practice. On the way up the very steep drive my previously faultless box entered the same state as yours. i.e. flashing lights (M & S)...

I had a leak from the power steering pump so have just replaced the pump with a new Bearmach unit. Leak fixed - hooray. Filled the system following the workshop manual and then had a friend turn the steering from lock to lock whilst I bled the system from the steering box. At first used a long...

I have been experiencing the ABS warning light coming on under light breaking for the last couple of months. It generally then resets itself when ignition is turned on then off. It looks like discs and pads all round were changed just before I purchased the Disco and this was done by a non...

A veeeeeeeeeery big apology. Must have been having a senior moment dash light was a mix up between my Disco 2 (200 GS auto) and a Mazda that my wife drives! So I have no light issue. That said the cruise works fine first time out but if I need to overtake then re-set cruise it will not engage...

My Disco 2 Cruise worked fine at the weekend. Then I set off today for a 120 mile round trip and set the cruise for 60mph on the motorway. It worked fine until I flipped it off when I was approaching a lorry. It would not turn on again until I stopped the engine and re-started. On the way home...

At my local garage today (MOT) they advised that I can purchase a Defender 90 or 110 front pipe to replace the CAT section on my 2000 Reg Disco 2. That will be £20-30 rather than £60-£100 for the Disco Decat pipe with flexi section. Do I need a TD5 Defender pipe or will a 300Tdi Defender pipe...

I bought my first Discovery 2 a couple of months back - year 2000 and it has 105,000 miles on it and full landrover service history. My views from research and as another newbee are that the Disco 2 is a good buy. They are less prone to rust in the boot and rear arches than the Disco 1 but...

Thanks to all for the advice I now have the replacement stat. Do I need a 36 or 32mm flat spanner to remove the fan, or both. In searching around I have seen both sizes offered for the Discovery fan removal? Also seems to be standard not left hand thread - is that correct?

Hi Having set out with the aim of purchasing a tax exempt series to get back to the fun of fiddling, welding etc ended up with a Disco 2 Automatic because the whole family wanted to travel with me in comfort and safety. So bought car having read up and have stripped out the interior, removed...
