Please help!

Hi everyone!

I'm new to this forum so apologies if I've done this incorrectly....

I've got a Land Rover Defender 90 Puma 2007 with 170k on the clock
I've recently been having some trouble going up hill, seems to be loosing power and having to drop down gears to get up the slightest incline..
Had an issue with power loss before and turned out to be the intercooler pipe splitting, changed this and been working a treat up until the last week

Got a diagnostic done and this came up...

Question is guys has anyone had this issue before/have any ideas


Thanks again and apologise if I've done this all wrong!

It's got to be worth changing the ECM power relay, you never know your luck. I think it'll be under the passenger seat in your Landy and I think will just pull out and replacement push in. If your unlucky then it might be something in the ECM.
Edit
Or just taking it out, cleaning the terminals, then putting it back.

It’s a long shot but I’d say it’s the ECM or related feed.

Just an update guys.... Taken to a specialist and turns out the clutch it shot. Need to replace the flywheel too, presuming this is whats causing the lack of power uphill..
Thanks for the help!

I might be missing something here but how did your original problem, which was related to ECM issues, turn out to be clutch related?

The reason I took it to get plugged in was due to power loss when hitting a hill, revs increasing but no power... Plugged it in and those codes came up maybe another issue that'll go to once a new clutch is in

That’s brilliant, the power was always there but it was clearly the clutch slipping.

But wouldn't a stall test have immediately said "duff clutch"?
It is what we were always advised to do when I was a lad.

Looking back now I should've presumed a duff clutch was the issue, having those codes come up threw me!

Do those new fangled, 2007 Defenders not have an anti-stall feature?

I had one in my old morris 1000 van. It was called, "learn to drive properly you prick."

I found out it was fitted to my camper van, I thought what a load of s...., then found I can drive onto the levelling ramps so much easier, one foot on clutch and one on brake, lovely.

You're right. The anti-stall is only on low 1st and low reverse.

I thought that about the hill start assist or whatever its called on our vitara. It does help when pulling away on a slope and saves riding the clutch
