Four Amigos Instead of Three!

**TerryO** · 21st December 2009, 10:24 PM

I know not another bloody Amigo thread!

But as it is only a couple of days before I head of on holidays like everyone else this is a bit of a issue as we are going to be towing the camper trailer with the wife driving the D2 instead of me. So this couldn't have come at a less optune moment and finding a mechanic with spare time to check things out is looking near on impossible, so any assistance would be appreciated.

First off I don't have three lights on I have four, the usual three suspects plus the hand brake red light. Given that this one more light then usual is this something more easilly diagnosed?

I have read all I can on here about the three amigos but there isn't much about four lights staying on.

In case it makes a difference the Disco is a 2003 V8 HSE

As I've said any assistance would be appreciated.

Cheers,
Terry

Mornin Terry!

have you tried the usual D2 reset?

if that fails a nanocom would be next,,,

I *think* the handbrake may be a seperate issue,,,

Hey Terry, doesn't sound good, I've called the mechanic I use and left a message to call me back to see if he can help with a diagnosis.

If it was a TD5 I'd say it was oil in the harness.

Hi Pedro,

thanks for that yes I did try the usual D2 reset last night at 12:30 actually after finding it in an old thread from 2007 where Baz describes what to do, unfortunately it didn't improve things. I was wondering about a nanocom but don't know anyone with one.

If there is anyone out there with one within a few hours drive of Goulburn who would be interested in assisting I'd be keen to give it a try to see if it works?

cheers,
Terry

Hey Baz,

these things happen and I have no problem with that its just the bad timing that is the real pain.
