Hi guys it appears I have the 3 Amigos problem with my TD5 so I'm trying to find the best way to proceed.
First some info on my Vehicle: Defender 90 TD5 XS 03Reg
So the other day (Tuesday to be precise) I started up the beast (after a very wet night). All the dash lights come on fine and then go off above 10kph. Then 300m in the HandBrake, ABS and TC lights come on and stay on.
Pulled over, ignition off and on. Same thing happened and stayed on all the way to work. (checked and had no ABC or TC, braked heavily and floored it from standstill in the wet)
Left it during the day then the same on the way home.
However next day it disappeared and hasn't happened since.
To be cautious i've had a diagnostic scan done and the following codes appeared:
CODE001: Pump failure 1 (monitor line)
CODE002: Pump failure 3 (pump sticking)
CODE003: Shuttle valve switch failure
CODE004: Front Left inlet valve failure
CODE005: Front Right inlet valve short to Ground
These were then cleared but the following codes reappeared:
CODE001: Pump failure 1 (monitor line)
CODE002: Pump failure 3 (pump sticking)
CODE003: Shuttle valve switch failure
Now I have done some research on the problem and the following seems like the best way to proceed, but I would like it confirming/any other suggestions.
1) Brake fluid change (for sticking pump)
2) Check and clean all the sensors.
(will do both of these as part of my service)
3) Buy Shuttle valve repair kit and if problem reappears (ie more lights) then fit it.
After this get another scan. If the problem doesn't reoccur then I will leave the switch and scan.
The one thing i'm not sure about is the first fault code about the monitor line, any ideas what i can do to possibly cure this/find that problem.
If it reoccurs with new switch fluid change etc etc then it's a refurb of my own pump (cannot afford a new one).
Thanks
Will
