    DPL have an issue with 1 connector on the Llams looms, which BTW is not smaller than the LR connector by my measurements. I will be endeavouring to arrange to look at an affected vehicle (perhaps yours Steve?) as DPL are the only people who are reporting major problems with the connector compared with only an occasional problem elsewhere - eg there are 2 people with replacement looms not yet fitted because after following my suggestions the "faulty" looms are still fitted and working. The particular connector is rather sensitive to being properly seated but I need to look at the DPL installations to discover why they have so many problems. I'm wondering if they are routing the wires in such a way as to pull on the connector. It seems that most people who fit the kits themselves don't have ongoing problems.

    Separately I am awaiting delivery of a sample of a different brand of connector to see if it is less sensitive to being properly seated. I'm also trying to obtain a suspension ecu to gut to allow testing of connectors on a real ecu connector rather than a loom extension connector.

    DPL read the fault codes which generally show front or reservoir valve faults. The pins for the 4 valves are in the long end of the connector so are the ones at risk of loosing contact if the wires pull on the connector. DPL also listed regular occurrance of 2 or 4 height sensor faults but as DPL don't disconnect the battery before unplugging the original connectors, faults will always be recorded for either just the front sensors or for all 4 sensors if the black plug is disconnected first or reconnected last.

    Graham happy to assist, I love my LLAMS, but every trip have suspension faults (which clear after a restart of engine) but a bit annoying, the drivers site not raising anymore is new though.

    I have meet at least two people a DP who as had issues with their LLAMS so not sure whether it's LLAMS or installation.

    thanks

    steve

    Steve, I can understand your frustration at continually having faults.
    I have just advised DPL that I am available next Wednesday, Thursday or Friday to check the installation in a customer's vehicle if one can be left there for the day.

    Steve's D3's problem hasn't yet been assessed so could still be a faulty height sensor but should know Monday. Regardless I need to look at a DPL fitting.

    have the issue where I get at least 1 suspension fault which clears after engine restart at every trip which is quite likely a LLAMS issue, the drivers site not raising I should know Monday DP still trying to nail it down

    We get a suspension fault as you do, but no LLAMS, according to the diagnostic check it is a height sensor and some sort of open valve fault code.

    I reckon your problem will be a sensor Steve.

    Ok update: the not raising was NOT caused by LLAMS but apparently by some
    Loose wires and is supposed to be fixed now
