Thread: Warning Lights On Dash - Help Needed!

Also the same with the ABS sensors or anything else I should check.

I would like to be able to start solving issues with this car myself, as I think the LR specialists will just replace rather than attempt to fix?

Cheers

The ABS modulator is located on the near side (passenger side) of the engine bay, behind/rearwards of the air cleaner box.

It's a bloody big Ally block, with pipes coming out of the top.

Do you have a RAVE CD ????

I would start by having the fault codes checked first otherwise you could be chasing your tail here.

Totally agree

Hi Scouse, no not really as I am sure they will charge me accordingly by replacing rather than fixing. Also I am sure I will have to book it in rather than turn up.

I'm sure it will be fine as the more I read the more I realise that it's not urgent.

Something I would like to try to fix myself, however I just do not have the time these days. Looks like another trip to range rov, but I am heading to HK on monday so by the time I get back and get it booked in it will be mid Jan.

Just wanted the car right if the missus has to drive it when I am away.

Cheers

Thanks Scouse, yes agree I think it best to have the fault codes checked, however without going into great depths I will have a look as I would like to start learning more about this car and rectifying issues.

I'll have to book it in at Range Rov anyway as it is leaking oil from the transfer case which they fixed last time.

Thanks!

Most dealers will try and fit you in to have the codes read - obviously they will charge for it - but I have found that they will accommodate

Hey Ladas,

Yes I have a rave CD, have not had a chance to look at it yet!!! Will spend some time over the next few days having a look over the CD.

Thanks

Depends on where you are...

If you are in/near Sydney, I would recommend seeing Graeme Cooper automotive for diagnosis. It will cost you some money but:
1) They won't arbitrarily fix things without asking unless it's safety related and

2) They won't necessarily advocate replacement "just to make the money".

Oh, and while you were posting the original post, they were diagnosing our ES, so they are open (or at least were yesterday).

I have just moved into a 2001 D2 Petrol.
Not long after purchasing the "3 Amigos" came on.
Seems hitting potholes will do it in my case!



Also the SRS comes on from time to time then they all have a rest for awhile.

My first thought was corrosion of the fuse box from coolant overflow.
I say that as that was the problem I encountered with my old P38A when the dealer changed the hoses on a recall. Mind you it took them a month before they would try another fuse box.

Is this a problem the D2 suffers from or is it as above 2 issues. One as per Ladas solution and perhaps a sensor for the SRS?
