    Discovery TD5 - Autobox / Dashboard Lights - Strange Behaviour - Flashing "S" and "M"

    Just to offer some sort of update on this... We replaced the XYZ switch, with a brand new gen item. When we drove her home from the mechanic's, it seemed to have fixed it. It lasted about a week, before it started happening again! I guess it wasn't the XYZ switch itself as a electronic unit...

    Discovery TD5 - Autobox / Dashboard Lights - Strange Behaviour - Flashing "S" and "M"

    Okey dokey... So, this is my original thread from back in 2014, so you can see how long this has been going for! Long story short, it continued to occur, on the very odd occasion, from early 2014 until mid-2018. It was so infrequent, that we just lived with it. However, during last Summer, it...

    Disco II Air suspension – the definitive guide

    There is a calibration, but you don't need to go to a Main Stealer to get it done. Any good independent Landy specialist will be able to sort out your ride height issue. There's a small amount of extra info on Page 1 of this thread.

    TD5 Defender Flickering Hand Brake Warning Light

    I just had the same problem - and stupidly, it didn't occur to me to check the fluid reservoir before Googling the problem. Where the light was flickering for me, it was flickering and and it's behaviour was changing as the car was being driven, and I eventually noticed that when we were driving...

    Disco 2 TD5 (2004) - Dashboard Warning Lights, but NOT the classic Three Amigos! (TC/ABS/Red !)

    Hi Yorkie No, not yet. I'm still trying to work exactly what I need to do, so as not to have to pop it down to a local mechanic to do it for me... I don't know how to check them to be honest with you! I've never really worked on brakes before. Handy with spanners though.

    Disco 2 TD5 (2004) - Dashboard Warning Lights, but NOT the classic Three Amigos! (TC/ABS/Red !)

    Hi Siera Yes - just gone out and double-checked. Both green (top left) and amber (bottom row) HDC warning lights come on fine during the ignition test - no issues with the bulb/s. There's defo nothing being recorded at all, no stored or current fault codes, at all - have already checked! The...

    Disco 2 TD5 (2004) - Dashboard Warning Lights, but NOT the classic Three Amigos! (TC/ABS/Red !)

    Hello Yorkie Thank you very much for this post - I am now quietly optimistic that we've got the exact same issue that you had. I'll see if I can find somewhere to check this out. Really hope that it's as relatively straightforward to resolve as yours seems to have been [whilst also touching...

    Disco 2 TD5 (2004) - Dashboard Warning Lights, but NOT the classic Three Amigos! (TC/ABS/Red !)

    Hello Lister Thank you for this post - I neglected to mention, that our mechanic did check the brake fluid reservoir after checking the codes. The reservoir was a little low, but above the min line, but he topped it up a little in case the action of braking was causing the fluid to swish around...

    Disco 2 TD5 (2004) - Dashboard Warning Lights, but NOT the classic Three Amigos! (TC/ABS/Red !)

    Hello to all I've got an occasional recurring problem, that it similar too, but different from the age-old and more typical Three Amigos problems. We get three lights come up, on occasion, but it is only the: Yellow - Traction Control Yellow - ABS Red - Warning/Handbrake Light (I've...

    Disco 2 1 out of 2 of our keys has stopped opening / locking the car and disarming the immobiliser

    Thanks - we couldn't understand it either. Obviously, I drove the car to Gremlin's with the working key, so, in theory, there shouldn't have been any forseeable problems either. This was also with a key and car that were known to be working correctly. Therefore, in theory, we were simply trying...

    Disco 2 1 out of 2 of our keys has stopped opening / locking the car and disarming the immobiliser

    Thanks Neilly - Gremlin and I followed this video here: It makes no reference at all to where the ignition should be, or whether the key should even be in it / car running / car not running - it's anyone's guess from this particular video.

    Disco 2 1 out of 2 of our keys has stopped opening / locking the car and disarming the immobiliser

    Sorry Disco Driver from Cumbria - I simply can't understand what you are trying to type. If you could type it in the Queen's English for me, I'd be happy to have a look at whatever your suggestion is.... You might also want to read what I've written in earlier posts first before attempting to...

    Disco 2 1 out of 2 of our keys has stopped opening / locking the car and disarming the immobiliser

    Why? I've already got a "2nd hand key" that I know broadcasts. Why would I spend money on a key that I know nothing about when I've got one here that I know everything about?

    Disco 2 1 out of 2 of our keys has stopped opening / locking the car and disarming the immobiliser

    Okey dokey - I've made some progress, but only in terms of ruling some issues out: 1 - I kindly enlisted the help of a D2 boys club member who has a Nanocom. I went to him, and we tried to re-sync the key, with the nanocom following the instructions that we posted on the D2 site. Sadly, this...

    Disco 2 Discovery II (TD5) 2004 - Rear Door won't open from inside, WILL open from outside and unlocks fine!

    SOLVED! I got a suggestion on a another forum that it might be a stretched cable - sure enough, it was. I removed the latch/actuator unit and once this was free of the door, I was able to pull the inner door lever cable further than you can when it's all installed. The door latch clicked open...

    Disco 2 Discovery II (TD5) 2004 - Rear Door won't open from inside, WILL open from outside and unlocks fine!

    Excellent suggestion - thanks Silverbeard. I don't suppose you have, or could take a picture of how the child-lock should look when it's correctly fitted or positioned do you? I can see, from the number of broken door card clips that were still poking into the door frame and the missing plastic...

    Disco 2 Discovery II (TD5) 2004 - Rear Door won't open from inside, WILL open from outside and unlocks fine!

    Hello to all I've googled this, and cannot find a solution or indeed another post that's the same - so sorry if I've missed it. Our rear door has only ever opened from the outside. It opens fine from the outside. It also unlocks / locks with the central locking without problem. I've...

    Disco 2 1 out of 2 of our keys has stopped opening / locking the car and disarming the immobiliser

    Ok - thanks for the replies. It looks like it's not a home-fix issue then? I'll wait until my usual LR specialist is back from holiday then. Just didn't particularly want to be down to one for any period of time!
