    According to RAVE:

    "The ECU is located underneath the right hand front
    seat, on top of the fuel ECU. It maintains the
    requested vehicle ride height by adjusting the volume
    of air in each air spring. It is connected to the cable
    assembly by a 35 way connector. To ensure safe
    operation the ECU has extensive on board diagnostic
    and safety features. The ECU is non-serviceable, in
    case of failure it must be replaced."

    Yes indeedy we are.

    Good you have found it. Maybe the air suspension ECU is what is under the seat?

    I did fit the O2 sensors on mine. Did everything myself except weld the exhaust bungs in. I took it to Midas who supplied and fitted the bungs.

    The tune resistor is located under the steering column. Open the flap door thing under the column and it should be taped up on the loom. Mine was fairly obvious once you were looking at it.

    As for the communications port there is one but not sure which plug it is as my Disco being base model has a few unused plugs under there. There is a factory code reader you can get from the US. Philip and I have one each. They were a factory fit in the US but not here. They do not use the port but are hard wired into the ECU.

    This thread is about the factory code reader
    http://www.aulro.com/afvb/technical-...-bad-news.html

    These are the photos from the thread I can't find.
    This is the location of the ECU and the earthing point I used for the mod.


    This is the back of the fuel pump relay with the heater wire for the sensors already fitted.

    This shows the tune resistor already modified but hanging driectly from where yours will be taped. I fitted a switch to go back and forth from the original map as mine has been flashed by John Davis in a previous life.

    Up close of switch.

    The factory code reader.

    If you want a code reader then get on to discoweb.org -- and ask someone to send you one from their wreck. That is where I got mine from.
    From what I've read they are a dime a dozen over there.

    So what's all the stuff under the seats?
    Also, where would the diagnostic plug be located?
    Under the Drivers seat is the ECU for the Air Suspension,
    Under Passenger seat ECU for ABS.
