    3 lights - Hdc, abs and tc lights come on at once. A failt in the abs system somewhere. Could be a loose wire , connector, sensor issue, switch, resistor, abs channel etc

    The 3 warning lights are regular visitors to a D2 instrument panel, hence 3 amigos/friends.

    There is the possibility to get the red brake system fault/handbrake warning together with the 3 amigos from time to time even though the system was conceived to be there all the time, LR built it to be 4 amigos but they failed at a point as rarely they come as they should... usually for sensor/wiring open circuit or short to ground it will be there... see attachment

    Also grease in the reluctor ring. Look in the sensor hole. If there arn't clean teeth in there maybe blow it out with some compressed air. Helped me out (Grease aparently means that the bearing is about to fail so only a temp fix).

    Cheers,
    Brian.
