I have a 1997 Range Rover HSE that has an EAS fault. It's now sitting on the Bump Stops and pretty much un drive-able. Anyone know what may have happened and how to fix?

They are quite driveable albeit bumpy. I did a 550km trip home on the bump stops a few years back and 250km this year - some of it on rough dirt roads.

Is your car at home (or at least in town) or stuck out in the bush somewhere?

As others have said they are drivable . Just a "bit" bumpy.

You will need to check for air leaks and that the compressor is working. Then clear any faults on the EAS computer .

You need to do some searching and reading on here for EAS diagnosis. When you have a bit of an idea ask questions for further guidance. There are a few things that can get you to a situation where EAS is not working... leaking bags, sensors not working, compressor fail or worn out, computer/control modules faulting, valve block leaks/issues, solenoid failures/leaks, air lines and/or tank leaking... just a few variables, but not impossible to understand or fix DIY style if you make an effort.

Search, read, then ask questions and plenty on here will help. If you don't want to DIY in Melbourne then take it to AMV in Ringwood or check out other forum recommended repairers and parts suppliers in the vendor section.

As above, eas is a big subject, if you diy a cheap plug and free software will clear the faults and let you check the system and pressurise to check for leaks, most likely a leak or compressor.

If you plan to diy start looking up valve block rebuild, not difficult if you take your time and removes many issues

Good luck
