Hi all, is there an earth point under one of the wheel arches that can trigger the 3 amigos?🤔
 
Ok I have an intermittent 3 amigos, replaced all hubs and sensors with good quality ones and was told that there's an earth point under the wheel arch that can corrode and cause the issue I've also replaced the shuttle valve
 
You better do somehow to read the fault code rather than chasing in blind or listening to those who have no ideea, i can tell you that there's no earth point under the wheel arch which would trigger the 3 amigos while see how many reasons can be in the following link where it's shown how to fix it for each code: https://www.rswsolutions.com/index.php/discovery-ii-abs-codes there are other related links in the right column
I've also replaced the shuttle valve
If you didnt do the bypass wiring mod(option B) you might have replaced that in vain
 
Had that and it didnt work🤔
had it how? cos there are wrong tutorials on the web where the additional wires are spliced into the circuit and the SVS's connector not removed so if the problem is a short circuit within the modulator this kind of "bypass" has zero effect, the only correct way is to cut the wires to the connector and prolonge them out:


1. WRONG (in at least 50% of cases this doesnt work, a lot of luck is involved to be OK)

2. CORRECT (except that additional black connector which IMO is useless)

Ok I'll give this way a try hopefully it'll work👍🏻
It will work ony if the fault code was SVS related, if it's any of the other many codes from that list this mod has no effect...just that at least you'll have no SVS problems whatsoever
