Gavin, it's the pc cable that plugs into the OBD socket inside the car.
Passengers footwell .
Then you can download the software needed from RSW solutions.
Google RSW solutions.

Storey Wilson (a legend in the Range Rover world) cracked the electronics codes for the air suspension system in the P38. With this software and a cable to connect your laptop to the OBD (on board diagnostics) socket in a P38 you can operate the suspension and clear faults.
DATATEK on here (not yet quite a legend in P38 circles) will, for very few wine tokens, supply such a cable and, on a disc, the software and a complete workshop manual and a guide to replacing the air bags.

I've heard horror stories about changing bags... the sort that Vincent Price himself would be too scared to narrate.

Plus i'm getting too old, fat, hairy and lazy to be doing such things in winter time... i had enough of that restoring P5B's... besides, i think my knuckles look rather nice with skin on them, so i'd like to keep it that way for now.

I hear LRR in Charlton are good for working on RR's, and modestly priced to boot, so i think i'll let them change the bags and just be a driver.

Pipe, slippers, one of Val Doonican's finest cardigans, with a warm cup of coco for me :tea:
 
Twas not the alternator, twas a bit of damage to the wiring loom, which has since been repaired... :)
 
Took me 10 minutes per side to do the rear airsprings with an axle stand long nosed pliers, a long screwdriver and an old wire coat hanger.
