Thread: Can anyone do "Option B" for me on my D2a in Brisbane?

When my ABS unit developed a fault (Not an amigo issue), I bought a reconditioned ABS unit from Triumph Rover Spares which was already modified to prevent the 3 Amigos occuring.

Probably not the answer you were looking, but an option if you can't find anyone to assist you and are happy to pay.

Any auto elecy?

If I still lived in Vegas I would be more than happy to do it for you.

I'm in 'travel with work mode' at the moment.

It's a pretty basic fix though.

Just hang in there, I'm sure someone will assist.

Regards
Andrew

If you send me a PM we can check it out, it is on my list to do to mine.

I have just recently repaired my ABS pump Assy. Was getting intermittent 3 amigos. Sometimes it would occur after starting the vehicle and just sitting in the driveway without putting into gear, sometimes after turning ignition on before starting the engine, and sometimes while driving the vehicle.

Replaced the shuttle switch solenoid Assy on the bottom of the unit. This didn't fix the problem but did stop the fluid leaking out of the bottom onto the guard.

Removed the unit from the vehicle, split the unit apart and re soldered the pins which the shuttle switch plugs into. You need to trim away some of the plastic cover on the rear of the pins. This seems to have solved the issue and the 3 amigos have not appeared again.
There is a link on the forum here about it somewhere.
Not a huge job, just need a soldering iron, a sharp knife and a couple of hours.
Oh and a Nanocom to purge the system of air and re bleed the brakes. I live a bit too far away otherwise I would have a go at it for you.

Don't go to all this trouble as option B is much easier with the same outcome.

The instructions for option B are pretty straight forward ..but if your willing to pay someone call Greg at GTM Cleveland ..his business is LR and he'll do it for you .
