Mine is doing this. Corrugations or speed humps will set it off. It usually clears itself after a restart.

Guess yours may be worse. I can go for days, but then it will do it a few times in succession. I just put a trans in mine and I think I disturbed it. But the point is it will clear itself until it shorts again. It's a straightforward if inconvenient fix. It's on my list, but you sound like you need to do it sooner rather than later.

the M&S lights will show up only when the fault is present while the codes will stay stored in the memory untill you erase it

The auto loom can be removed without taking out the console.... disconnect from XYZ switch and auto connection then route back above the box to p clip/then floor grommet where you can then remove the heat wrap and check for wire rub??

bit of a pita and must have flexible hands.... another option to drilling out all the rivets etc

well that job done although no rubbed through wires but can see were it does rub so reinforced that area,seems to be working normal at the moment so will wait and see what happens.one bonus is that i finally have the 4wd lever working freely with a bit of lube.and no blood this time.

Good to hear. Another possible culprit is water from the A/C drain getting into the XYZ switch itself. There's a mod on here somewhere to fix that.
