Looks like the standard lamp check thing.
Evening all,
Was wondering if anyone had ideas on these guys.
So from what I can gather;
- Happens only on start up, then disappears.
- Happens if car is not driven for at least a day
I’ve checked;
- Battery, cables etc.
- Alternator
Work done just under 40,000kms;
- ABS Modulator
- XYZ
- Both seatbelt pre-tensioners
Not a mechanic so I may be looking in the wrong areas. But does anyone else have an idea?
Still deciding between Nanocom or Hawkeye btw.
Cheers,
Blue

Before I had a Land Rover I did not have any torque wrenches. Now I have three.

I think he means they stay on a bit longer than the rest
Buy/ borrow a fault reader and see what codes are being thrown up. You are only guessing until then....
The red brake warning comes together with the 3 amigos when there is a "solid" fault present, usually sensor related, it's normal, it should be there all the time but in reality it isn't, as said, read the fault code(s).... for the HDC green one make sure that the HDC switch was not accidentaly pushed in
Discovery Td5 (2000), manual, tuned
Had a issue on a mates D2A similar to this .
Put my Nanacom on it front l/h sensor 16 times
Cleared the faults and was about to tackle wheel removal and so forth when i noticed he had new tyres
Turns out it crapped a front l/h tyre and the spare he had was a different size which he drove around on for a while
He informed me the T/C would occasionally come on when he hit some bumps .
Faults cleared and no more issues with the correct size tyres all the way around
As Wilyms said, these four stay on for a bit longer. Sometimes for a second, sometimes for 5. All the other start up lights go.
But again, only happens if the car isn’t driven regularly.
EDIT: HDC, HDC Warning, TC, ABS are the lights that don’t comply. Should’ve clarified earlier.
I’ll post a video up tomorrow.
@ rangieman, funnily enough (and unfortunately for me) I was checking the tyres all round for an “unrelated” problem yesterday and they all check out
I think the consensus here is diagnostic tool because Land Rover does Land Rover things
Check the actual state of charge of the battery. Cooler weather, sitting for a couple of days could be enough to drop it to where it wakes up the gremlins. The only time I've seen those things with my D2 (and with the P38A) is when the battery is a bit suspect.

Checked charge state after a day of sitting. We’re at 12.4v. I didn’t think that would be enough to warrant a new battery but we shall give it a crack. Will update on change.
I'm pretty sure I've had this happen a couple of times in the last 2 or 3 weeks, in my case I reckon I had the SLS lights on too, but difference in model.
I had a read of the codes and nothing was recorded.
It happened at the same place and condition first thing in the morning, I'd turned around on the driveway and was just getting to the exit on the road. As I braked all came on and got the bing bing noise.
Both times it just went away after a restart. Second time I could read the codes while lights were on and had nothing.
I reckon it may be a bit of water coming in the car, there had been heavy rain.
The only other option is that my right rear was low on pressure, maybe 23psi vs 35 on the other side and 30 on the front. I only noticed as I was airing down to take some friends to the back paddock. Visually not that much difference though...
Battery is generally OK, it's been due for a new one for about 2 years but it just keeps going.
I have a solution though, the MU-X next week should sort it out
