Use tool FBH101 to repair broken spacebar...........Mine isithinkhow doyou mendit?

Did you apply FBH101 to aforesaid fat thumbs or phone keyboard??? Makes a difference you know
At first I applied it to the fat thumbs...then I noticed a nasty rash had formed so went to the doctors, he said I should stop having sex with monkeys.....I thought about this for a while and decided I could live with the rash as the monkeys say they love me, so I liberally applied the FBH101 to the keyboard instead and so far the spacebar problem is OK, but my rash has spread...still it could be worse!Did you apply FBH101 to aforesaid fat thumbs or phone keyboard???

I imagine Mr Rust had a hand in this! If the car hasn't been on the bump stops for a few years, I would imagine the sensor brackets had weakened and a sudden drop followed by driving over rough ground has killed it. I haven't looked under mine yet, perhaps I too have bits hanging off after that stupid road on Saturday
I'll be taking photo's to see how the re-programming goes. If you look at the thread Arghhhhh. All At Once, you can see the fun I had last week and how I dealt with it until I got the pump fixed and the software to get it off the hard stuff...

If you need a garage I can recommend Garage Cole et fils at Charroux. Think that may be somewhere near you. He knows landies, used to trial them.

Hi all,
sorry its been a while since I updated the post..... so I had a new sensor ordered, and I have fitted that to replace the old broken one this afternoon; I got a data cable and the EAS unlock software and all seemed well, the car rose and shifted through the suspension settings as it should, but I really struggled to figure out how to calibrate the settings.
I had managed to clear the 35mph warning and the EAS lights had returned to normal. I took the car out for a drive, it was riding high but she hunkered down into highway mode etc so I thought I just needed to adjust the EAS height settings. Then, after 36 miles the EAS fault error came back, but no 35mph warning and the car remained on suspension and not bump stops.
Ive gotten home and plugged in the EAS software and I, hoping that someone mght be able to help me out with the settings and error code as I'm baffled!
the only error code that I get is 6. RR reading incorrect this is the ride height sensor that I have replaced.
I have input the following values in to the calibration tab - I know that they have written correctly as are displayed in the boxes after pressing the GET ALL button
FR FL RR RL
High 156 156 147 147
Standard 123 123 109 109
Motorway 107 107 107 107
Access 70 70 75 75
when in access mode the actual height measurements (centre wheel to centre arch) are:
FR 390MM
FL 410MM
RR 430MM
RL 430MM
when in standard mode the height measurements are:
FR 420MM
FL 430MM
RR 520MM
RL 510MM
So none of the figures seem to correlate, I cant seem to figure out the actual real world MM value of the EAS ride height calibration input values.
When I use the get height setting, the corner values are displayed as.
FL 70
FR 64
RL 99
RR 17
I have no idea where to go from here, and any advice would be greatly appreciated!!

OK, the values are just the full travel spread across 255 counts so don't relate to any measurements.
The rear right reading 17 is completely wrong so I suspect a wiring issue or faulty sensor. Was this the one you replaced? If so, was it a genuine Dunlop one? Also, was it the correct one. On early models they are handed but not on later models.

OK, the lengths are in wammers post in the technical archive https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/checking-eas-compressor-and-diaphragm-valve.172555/
I used some 28mm diameter wooden broom handle and just bound the ends with tape to make them stay in the bump stops.
Lift the suspension up to extend height, insert the blocks into the bump stops then drop down to access height. This will mean the axle is a fixed distance from the chassis. You then read the values in from the sensors and write that value into the ECU memory. Only thing is, these numbers must be within certain limits or the ECU will default to fixed values
