    Discovery 2 TC

    I am having an problem with my D2 when i am driving on Tarmac or gravel and hit an big hole or some corrugation the Traction control kicks in an slows the car down, its bad when i am driving on the road and does it,

    I changed the rear right Hub and checked for codes using Nanocom and nothing comes up.

    Also i dont have an lights on the dash that come up

    Any help will be appreciated

    Thanks

    There's a missbalance between sensor signals, it can happen even if you mix different brand sensors cos admitted resistance of a sensor is between 950-1100 ohm and if one is at the lower limit and others at higher or vice-versa they'll past the system self test cos the stationary output is between 2.0 - 2.4V so no fault codes but in movement at the same wheel speed one input is higher or lower and the system interprets it as wheel slip

    did you fit genuine or branded hub? if not did you count the teeth of the reluctor ring? cos some cheap chinese ones have 55 instead of 60 and that can cause issues too

    you need nanocom plugged in to see which sensor is giving different readings

    untill you fix it if it's very annoying you can remove the ABS pump relay(R10) then you'll get the 3 amigos and no ABS/TC activity... just be aware that the brakes will work normally like on a non-ABS vehicle which might not be bad cos even the ABS can be erratic due to this missbalance and then it can make you trouble rather than help you

    If it's german product dont bother to count(you can count only through the sensor's hole) ... might be the sensor's resistance different...can't you fit the sensor from your removed hub for test?

    a nanocom would be great help if you can find somebody close to you to help

    Put back the old sensor and see then... if it's the same it means that the german hub might have wrong number of teeth, might be a german hub made in china

    you can swap sensors either way as you wish, no problems with that
