    Restricted Performance..and 500km drive! Transmission warning light on.Major problem?

    Hi everyone...

    The dreaded warning lights have just come on the car and we have a 500km drive tomorrow towing a caravan (and are in the middle of no where). Im trying to work out whether this is a massive issue to force me to go back to the nearest town (50km back) and cancel bookings....or plod along to our next destination (500km - which is nearer Darwin). Any help appreciated!

    Here are the fault codes - some circuit voltage out of range? Any ideas?

    Many thanks,

    Chris

    If the faults clear and it drives normally keep going as sometimes you might not see the fault again for days / weeks/ months.

    Oh dear. Unusual code something related to the automatic transmission. Never hurts to make sure the battery is well charged as a starting point. Nothing much pops up in Land Rover forums.

    Looking at other fault codes in the vicinity of your codes, I suspect a short circuit or possibly a broken wire for a cooling fan or for a fan sensor.

    Unless your AE is a LR specialist I wouldnt recommend it....

    Out of curiosity - have you tried charging the main battery overnight?

    Have you checked any fuses relating to the cooling fan?

    Fair point - going to pop by a LR specialist in Darwin tomorrow to see if they can fit me in.

    I havent tried charging the main battery overnight....but i am doing 4 hours drives every couple of days...and battery is less than a year old, so should be good.
