Not 3 but 4 and some times 5 amigo's

Hi All

My Warning lights seem to be playing up Handbrake light, ABS, Hill Descent, TC, ans some times the ACE lights

why so many what does it all mean :o

[slug_burner]

I had four of the ones you mention. No ACE for me.

TC, ABS, Hill D all have the wheel speed sensors in common. Some people have had faulty sensors however mine and a lot of others are simply cleared from the computer list of fault codes and all is well after that.

There maybe something more going on with yours, maybe bad connection/earth to the computer.

Ive had the Orginal 3 Amigos before they just seemed to go away on there own once the truck is cleaned but ACE must have something to do with the new off road rubber hand brake got me stumped however :(

I believe that the 4 amigos are an extra that you only get with the 2003 update edition, bigger better and more lights.

so just treat as everyone elses 3 amigos

Cheeres Keith

PS I also don't have ace so I only get 4 not 5

Simex's will do that, they find the weakest link in the chain and destroy it. In my experience the number of lights on the dash of the D2 is directly related to the amount of numbers on the repair bill. Hopefully it is just a dodgey earth.

I had 3 appear in the new Defender: Brake Warning, ABS and Traction Control. It turned out to be a bad earth...easily fixed in my case.

Air in the brakes or low fluid level will bring up the handbrake warning light on a Defender.

I think mine is the same, I hope my one is the same it happens only when I go off road and turns off when I disconnect the battery
