When mine developed something similar it was a corroded connector behind left side cover of left footwell that needed a bit of contact cleaner. The connector relays EAS dash switch cables to EAS computer under the front left seat. As my car is left hand drive, there could be a different connector location on your car.

Right folks,

I know P38 suspension faults are very very common and I've tried to have a look around here again but I'm not the most clued up when it comes to computers or forums.

This was the closest I managed to find http://www.landyzone.co.uk/lz/f10/eas-fault-p38-newbie-member-164027.html
but wasn't much use.

I was driving my rangie the other night when the "suspension up" arrow thing came on on the dash along with a beep.

All of the lights for the different suspension heights started flashing then just stayed on solid and the dash read EMS fault.

The suspension hasn't sagged and still seems to be in the same position it was in.

I dont have software or the required hardware to try any diagnostics.

Can anyone shed any light on this?

I apologise in advance if this has been covered many times but I can't seem to find what I need and I'm afraid to drive it in case I damage something..

Thanks

Ok,

This has been suggested to me before about the cables and software from Datatek for a different problem which may well become a requirement, as I say though... This is about the extent of my computing expertise, how easy is the software/program to set up and run/use? I can't even fix basic problems with my laptop if I'm honest..

It's not cleared on it's own, that much I can say. But at the same time, doesn't seem to be causing any problem...

Is there anyone near the Fife area that could possibly lend a hand in locating the fault without breaking the bank? Especially at this time of year?

Thanks
