Thread: Classic EAS height sensor,- same as P38 ?

James do you want some? You can have all mine, will see what ones I have. Stupid eas

Vern,

Pm sent.

Never wire-wound.
Classics and P38 are ceramic resistor type. there is a difference in resistance range, with the Classic being wider resistance range than the P38. There are also 2 types on P38!
If it's been set with diagnostics to suit the resist.range of the P38 one then it "should" work ok; That wheel though may be a bit different in height to the others, at other than standard height; eg äccess" or "high".
They can be recoed, by pulling the back off; thorough cleaning ( pot to be reassembled DRY), new bearing/seal, and switch the arm to utilise the other side of the resistor( it's been unused up till now!)

By "Diagnostics" do you mean from factory ? - Or Testbook? - Or perhaps with the 'EAS Unlock Suite' ? trust LR to keep chopping and changing mid-model for the sake of making our lives ... interesting.

Which means all things considered, I'm no worse off by attacking it with a can-opener or other suitable instruments. - The LH front has now gone into constant fault mode, cannot get it to 'hold' a EAS Kicker re-set. Car is now running on its Self-Rescue system..

I feel a re-build project on the way...
