    Not the usual 3 Amigos

    Hi All,
    I have the red handbrake light, SLS and off road suspension (Raise) lamps on. The compressor was goosed and has been changed out, and now levels the car, can hear and feel it working.
    Cant get rid of the lamps though.
    Nanocom says no faults in SLABS ecu.
    Any ideas?

    Hi, not an easy one, some questions:
    1. is your nanocom upgraded to the last firmware "beta"? ...cos the initial software wasnt the most reliable with SLABS and they say that they improved things in this area(i can't confirm)
    2. can you see the usual 3 amigos on ignition self test?
    3. have you had these warnings before you fixed the compressor and they stood on?, or they came on immediately after the repair? or it was OK for a while then you got the warnings?... did they come all together? that's important

    the red brake warning can be triggered by the SLABS too but then it's part of the "usual" 3 amigos so if it didnt came at the same time with the others you should rule out the brake fluid level/switch and the handbrake switch first

    answer exactly to each question then i'll tell you more

    Latest beta

    Yep. they all light, go off then these 2 come back
    3. have you had these warnings before you fixed the compressor and they stood on?, or they came on immediately after the repair? or it was OK for a while then you got the warnings?... did they come all together? that's important
    Warnings came on before repair, compressor was knackered, replaced with this one running fine. alters levels up and down, exhausts properly, runs quiet. in short all good.

    Hi,
    Answers as above.
    Red brake lamp was brake fluid now sorted.
    So I am left with SLS lamp and Off Road lamp
    They go off after system start up test, then immediately back on.
    Car self levels fine, can feel and hear it adjusting.
    Tried switching to coils and back to air, calibrated system, switched ecu cal to yes.
    What state should test be in? enabled or disabled?
    Any other ideas guys?

    Bump for any other ideas for this one.
    I have checked faults in every section, there are none, but these lights are persistent when in Air suspension mode.
    Thanks

    At this stage IMO you should rule out the ECU cos it might be it's missbehaviour, btw if you swith on ORM would it raise to extended height?
