Thread: Banished the Amigoes !

One of the best feelings when owning a Disco 2, beating those pesky lights and alarms. Well done Kev.

I did the option b and electrical tape over some exposed LH front sensor wiring and it solved my dramas. Best feeling ever driving without that annoying sound and lights on the dash.

Very satisfying feeling

They didn't pop-in very often, and it was always doing something slow (like stop/start crawling at traffic lights or intersections in a straight line, with light brake pedal and ... squeeeeeaaaal .... bing bing bing )

... I'm sure they drop in for a visit in the future ... it's their nature

So you wouldn't recommend oiling the brakes then......??

Using Capitals, the difference between helping your Uncle Jack off a horse or helping your uncle jack off a horse...

Of course not, but I don't quite understand what you're getting at ?

Please explain.

Oil..... For the squeak..... On brakes......

Ah, OK ....

Sometimes I'm so slow on the uptake ....

So you'd use oil on the brakes instead of anti-squeal ?

it was a good one LMR

maybe the deafening rattles have finally taken their toll

I had this with my disco 2 and i ended up purchasing from the UK a special code reader (home made)that you plug in under the dash ,it downloads all the codes logged in text form ,(it cost me a few hundred , but i saved more than that ...
You plug it into your car and it gives you the last 3 faults , in detail
ie left front right front etc .
after the fault is fixed , plug it in and out and let it decode 3 times and its clears the ecu reader.
I ended up finding a broken internal wire rhf 3 inches from the sensor by wriggling the wire till the amego went off.then reset the amego and repeat till i pinpointed the exact fault section(absolutly hidden and intermittant ) cut insulation back with a stanly , soldered the break, heat shrink both wires and silicone blue under the last outer cover of heat shrink
