Abs light comes on with ignition as it should.
Brake lights are not working now so must be switch, Sod's law these were working when I bought it.
It must be intermittent that makes sense as the 2 dash lights were not on when I drove it home.

I had this 'intermittent' problem. I had the three lights on and no brake lights.
It was the brake light switch. Think it was about £35.00 to replace and two minutes work to fit (although it's awkward to get at). Do a search on the site and you'll see some pic's regarding the newer version.

Don't get too panicked about these faults, most Freelanders get them eventually and they're easy fixes.
I bought my '03 3 door with no propshaft and got a shaft off ebay that looked really clean but had a noisy bearing.
Put new bearings on and fitted the shaft and she's sweet as a nut.
If you read the forums all cars have terrible issues but nobody posts that they don't have a problem do they?

I love my freebie, warts and all so here's wishing you much fun and many thousands of miles!
