Thread: SRS dash light. Discovery S11

So perhaps there is hope for me yet. My SRS light has been on for about 5 years now, simply came on and stayed on.
About 12 months after this occurrence the missus was shopping at Woollies or somewhere, was putting some groceries in the back and heard a minor explosion and saw a puff of smoke in the passenger seat area. Most alarmed, she rang home and we sorted out that the car started normally, there was no fire, no electrical problem obvious, so she drove it home.
The Passenger seat belt pre-tensioner had gone off, probably because it was Wednesday or some other obscure reason.
Visited S.......e Landrover in Brisbane and was told I was a liar and had obviously had an accident as these things don't go off.
So now I don't have airbags (which is irrelevant as the use by lifespan of these articles has expired!) and the passenger has to search 2" lower for the seatbelt receptor, and I can live with both these facts quite easily.
Regards

I had some auxilliary fuel tanks fitted today and the power was picked up from the White ignition wire inside at the fuse box. Since then the SRS light has stayed on. The Nanocom shows no faults & I've disconnected the battery for 10 mins but no luck. The installer reckons the White wire is the ignition wire on LR and he has always picked up power from this point.......any ideas???

yours in anticipation

TRY the yellow connectors under both front seats,the other work may be a coincidence.

EDIT,also check the yellow connector behind the glovebox!!!
GOODLUCK

Thanks Andrew. I'll look tomorrow (didn't know of the one behind the glovebox)

cheers

I also have this fault. Guess what I'll be doing on Sat. morning?

yep, came up again for me recently, behind the glove box is the culprit.
suggest use the glove box for not much more than that and should not affect the wires behind....

X 2. The knowledge base on here is invaluable!

Think I'll go looking on Saturday. So that's one under each front seat - where exactly? Is the glovebox one in the glovebox or behind it? Is it easy to get at?
With these plugs, do you just pull them apart, clean them and push them back together or is there another trick? What stops them coming apart again? Would it help to tape over the joints to hold them together?
