    SLS problem

    Hi, after my disco went onto an hoist the rear bags have deflated and it doesnt want to pump back up, i checked the nanocom reading for transport mode and is disable, i hear the pump for about 5 secounds and thats it

    any idea as to why? the bags are pretty new too.

    can the nanocon rum the pump with the solinoids open.pump it up manually to about normal height and see what happens.This happened to mine but cant remember the fix,it was simple,try unhooking the battery for 10 mins,make sure you have the radio code

    Maybe momentary bad contact along one sensor's circuit occured and it lost calibration, pump it up to even level or if you can't jack it up as to be on normal level and store those heights as target again ... neglect figures only the physical height is important ...also see if there are any fault codes logged and if it is clear the memory

    I checked for codes and there were none, and i cant inflate the bags and it wont work

    is there an way to jack the car by the tow bar and try to inflate then that way or check that the sensor is working?

    This has all come about, as it was working today, went on an hoist and now is screwed

    Are you trying to inflate with "raise" command in the calibration menu? ... you can check sensor inputs with nanocom as well in the "inputs SLS" menu

    I am trying to raise it up to normal height, but even with the raise setting in NANOCOM is gives me an error of "unable to achieve results or something like that

    I should also add it has an 2inch spacer on the bags but the sensor arms are not extended, that's how I bought the car.

    This may be the issue. Depending how the vfehicle went on the hoist.
    The rear may have reached full travel and the sensors been damaged from not having enough travel due to lack of extension arm.

    Jack the car from the tow bar to correct height.
    Pull the compressor relay.
    Disconnect the sensor arms on at a time and with Nanocom, check readings throughout the sensor range.

    Make some extension brackets while you are at it.

    after the new gearbox i had the same

    The bags were left deflated for a week while waiting on the new box ,
    so what i did was jack the rear of the car with a 8 ton jack ,,( under the tow ball )

    started the car ,,
    then after the pump ran for 20 or so seconds it lifted off the jack

    Maybe the potentiometer in the height sensor is dirty at that point as they dont normaly get that low ??


    Hope it helps ,,, havent had a drama since
