    if your not interested in having a go at fixing it yourself i would suggest you give roverland in boronia a visit, glenn fixed mine (mine was the shuttle valve) quickly and for a reasonable price, and with warantee as well

    Hi Mate,
    where in melb are you? I might be able to help clear and read your fault codes, I have just cleared my 3 amigos and so far so good, my fault was low output on rear right sensor, I will continue to monitor as this fault occurred 12 months ago. PM me if interested
    Cheers Matt

    LR Tech Bulletin

    Guys,

    If you haven't already done so, can I suggest using the LR tech bulletin LTB 00060 to assist in isolating where the fault may be, if the diagnostics are indicating a shuttle valve problem.

    While shuttle valve fail, I went through the bulletin and checked the earth. In all of the wet weather that Brisbane has been having, I was getting 3 amigoes all of the time - nearly every drive, randomly coming on. It didn't occur once the weather came good (touch wood), and when I finally checked using the LTB the earth had some corrosion on it and it wasn't 100%. Cleaned it and put some electrical contact lube on it to assist in stopping corrosion. Time will tell, but no faults have occurred since rectifying the corroded earth. (There are 2 in front of the air cleaner box, need to unscrew them a fair distance to check for corrosion. Simply untightening them and retightening isn't good enough - scrape or sand the corrosion off. )

    Sounds interesting and I will check this out when back from holidays. The pattern of lights coming on has always been higher in wet weatehr, in the winter months and only occasional in the summer. The lights always come on when I put HDC on and typically also come on when I hit hte brakes hard.
