Hi Guys, I have a problem with my cruise control on my 96 2.5 dse. The master switch on the dashboard is not lighting up. Nor are the 2 steering wheel buttons. Would this be the relay?. Any help would be appreciated. Cheers, cfc123

The steering wheel buttons don't light up, at least they don't on mine.
The master switch should light up when pressed. Does the cruise control work?
The cruise control is operated by the EDC on the diesel, check the switch and wiring for starters. Download RAVE if you don't already have it.
 
Will be a blown bulb if cruise is otherwise fully functional. Otherwise as Data says.

Is the main problem that cruise control is not working at all??
 
The 'official' way is to remove the dash, well almost. You start back in the cubby box and work your way forward.
I have heard of some people gently levering the individual switch out but, with walnut in mine, have never tried it.
What I would do, as cruise is hardly essential, is look for anything else that you'd like to do behind the dash; HEVAC bulbs, blend motors, any other failed bulbs etc and then read up on how to strip it out and do it once.
 
Sorry Mate, I don't want to come across as being dim but, how do I access the back of the switch?. Cheers, cfc123

It's not difficult, but it is rather tedious: everything is held in by everything else and the master holders are the side panels. So you need to remove them, then remove the instrument binnacle, and the hevac and then the fascia unit.
The cruise control ECU is behind the instrument binnacle so you could check that too :)
All instructions are in RAVE, and there are some good guides on rangerovers.net

Thanks for all your help. One more question, What is RAVE and, where do I get it?. Thanks, again. cfc123
