Thread: URGENT!!! need to remove 3 amigo lights on dash

you need to do your research,,
not just throw money at it,,
I understand you are pushed for time, but have you been told what the actual fault is?
Was the fault found with a diagnostic machine? eg, nanocom?

lots (and LOTS) of people on here have been through the three amigoes before,,,
and would be only to happy to help---

Not always the case. I had them come on once, 2 yrs ago. The next time I started the car they were gone, never came back. (Yes, I know, I'm inviting disaster)

1. Find the source of the issue.
2. Fix, which even if it does mean throwing money at it it won't be the upwards of $2-3000 that is claimed for a "new" ABS unit. At most a couple of hundred for a new switch assy and seals and a weekend to fix.
2a. Option B fix means a good day and some pre reading.

I wish mine would not come back when I clear the fault...

You should still be able to sell the car with the fault on the pink or blue sheet. But they will than need to have it re inspected after getting it fixed to rego it in their name.
The idear is to show any fault to the new buyer. Not to stop the sale.
I could be wrong as I don't live in Vic, but that's my understanding.

The link in your post regarding the'A' 'B' mod from the Land rover club Victoria does not work any more?? http://www.landroverclubvi.com/abs-mod.html
Was the best article that I have seen.

I Can't see abs mod on there new site. Home

You tube search WABCO ABS REPAIR. shows shuttle valve repair. (not English)

I finally got around to doing this mod on my disco today.
