    warning light issue

    Hi All, I’m having a warning light issue with my 03 Disco TD5 auto, occasionally I get three orange warning lights coming up at once, TC, ABS and hill decent, they will stay on until I turn the car off and then restart. Any suggestions? Regards Difflock.

    Mine started out like that, intermittent, now I have the three amigos constantly, hope this isn't the case for urself. I'm thinking shuttle valves on the wAy out, again, this is the case with mine.
    Good luck

    You have to have it checked on a diagnostic tool, either from someone with a Nanocom or your local Landy specialist (not a dealer)

    Then go from there, could only be a wheel sensor, also they tend to be more frequent when brake pads and rotors are ready to be replaced too.

    The shuttle valve is not as common a fault as the wheel sensors and it will show as a fault if it is buggered.

    Both Basil and Redback have offered advice that might save you (BOTH) a LOT of money,,,
    No-one (should)replaces shuttle valves unless they have exhausted ALL other avenues,, and this includes resoldering THAT connection

    Let us know how you get on after reading The Good Oil.

    Even re-soldering is to much hassle, and can come back to haunt you......... just bypass them completely, 3 amigos gone forever!!.

    What Urban Panzer says x 2. Advice I got on this forum was if the amigoes could be cleared on restart it was likely a shuttle valve problem. This led me to do the bypass about a month ago. After previously getting them every 2nd day, amigoes have not reappeared since. Cost virtually $0 and HDC/TC/ABS all are working normally.
    The only thing I'm not sure on is whether the bypass might mask some future problems in the module I should know about eg oil/fluid in the shuttle valves.
    Cheers
