    3 AMGIGOS = ABS TC HD warning lights stay on

    Sorry, should have been more explicit...

    After hitting a ditch with the left front wheel (while driving very slowly), the 3 warning lights for ABS, TC, and HD came on permanently. They refer to it as the 3 amigos as it seems to be a common problem... so we ignored it... and now we are due for rego and the service mechanic wont pass it. We live nowhere near a Landrover dealer, so is a real problem for us to get it fixed.

    NO!

    and for sprint: the three amigos are the ABS, traction control and hill descent control lights coming on when you have a fault with the braking system on a D2. It can be caused by various things from a faulty ABS sensor through dodgy brake pads and up to ABS shuttle valve failure or modulator break down. It can be VERY expensive and is a very common problem.

    I had mine coming on and off at differing times, mine ended up being an ABS modulator....$1125.00, thankfully I had an extended warranty which covered $1000 of it. Baz's suggestion is worth looking into,

    There are a few members in the Bathurst area, i'm sure there is a Landie guy in Lithgow, if not you may need to take a drive too Kingswood, KLR are Landie specialist and can clear your faults.
