Freelander TD4 TC Hill Descent warning lights.

mudinuri · Apr 20, 2019

I"ve been reading the thread regarding this problem becaue my TC and Hill Descent warning lights come on.
It used to be very ocassionally but now it"s a daily occurence. One member said to select reverse with ignition on, engine off. So if the TC/Descent lights come on when you do this does that mean it"s the Reverse Light Switch at fault. IS IT STILL SAFE TO DRIVE WITH THESE LIGHTS ON?
Mines a 2003 TD4 AUTOMATIC.
cheers

It's most likely that the brake lights switch is faulty.

The bakes will still work, but special programmes like TC HDC will be disabled.

Thanks for that Nodge68. Is changing a Brake Light Switch a job I can do on the drive? and will the brakes need bleeding after fitting?

Yes it can be done on the drive although I had to take the drivers seat out so I didn't break my back trying to fit one. No you don't need to bleed the brakes as it just slots in then reconnect the wiring connector
