Totally agree with Nodge, lots of functions run through the BCM. A BCM DTC just means the fault is on that circuit, it is unlikely to be a BCM/CJB fault.
If there is a hard fault it is more likely to be in a connector somewhere.
I thought it was normal for the boot to not open while the engine is running if it's been programmed to do that. I'm pretty sure one of my FL2s was like that.
The EPB is controlled by the EPB module, which is mounted in the boot.
What codes are...
Seat belt would be my best guess going from lack of information on size. Lots of different types fitted over the years, mine are off a ford something. I think disco? seat belts have allen caps from memory
I have a Fluke in work, at home I use a £15 Aldi middle aisle special. For most jobs the Aldi does the job.
The extras Marjon mentions will come in handy, as will a long earth lead if you need to reach the battery from the rear.
As mentioned an...
TBH.
If its a starter and only used in 12v systems you dont need anything fancy, they are cheap.
I would say try to get 1 that "bleeps" on continuity checks (no volts just checking the wire) its not the the be all and end all the wire is "good"...
I have a split return pipe from the fuel regulator. Having looked at the videos of its removal, which I don't need to do, is there any reason why the top pipe cannot be removed at the regulator giving easier access to the return pipe nut?
If...
Thanks for the advice.
I have cleaned the filter and removed the fluid from the tank and replaced with new. Going to take it for a drive around after lunch and see if anything happens.
I'm not sure there's much that can be checked without Nanocom or Hawkeye.
Removing relay 14 disables ACE and defaults to locked bars which is fine to drive until it's fixed.
Well, finally, after years of irritating light throttle and deceleration hesitation and hunting, I have solved the problem!! It was the injector seals and washers. I discovered this by accident. The fuel pump was on its way out, so I changed it...
Hello Anaconda and Tottot,
Lile I said, I looked into it today... I took out the start and stop combination and went to a Land Rover wizard with it. He opened it up and then we saw that the system that makes it impossible to pull the key out...
Difficult to gauge size but it looks a bit like a sump plug.
The bottom pic' showing the inner face with the 'protrusion' reminds me of a seat belt bolt.
The shape is designed to fit in bracket to stop the mounting turning when secured.
That...
Sorry of Course.
Tim from Bondi NSW Australia have a 76 Series 3 short wheel base Land Rover trying to get it back on the road. Had t pull the gearbox out to fix a clutch lever and slave cylinder through the floor. Putting it back in and found...
It would be good thing to introduce yourself,[rough location] say hello and give some more details about what it may be off to have a chance of finding out.
To be fair to LR and my Disco. Its actually been reliable. I have done three long journeys and not had a single mechanical issue. The car drives really nice, its a pleasure to drive. The actual working of the of the engine and driving I cant...
Hi,
I just travelled 4.5hrs in the disco and up a mountain to 1000m altitude without any issues got home and the other key works fine!! Locks/unlock the car starts without issue but the other key is still not working.
After reading more I...
Hi, you'll have to check with the second fob too and if it's the same the RF receiver is the first suspect which would cause the starting issue too cos it doesnt communicate with the passive remmobilisation exciter coil then that suplimentary...
Assuming it's petrol.
Could be evaporation of the fuel in the fuel lines.
Could be the fuel pick up pipe in the tank part blocked.
Or could be the coil breaking down.
Check all and replace the fuel system.
Check all and replace the coolant system.
Does it still have a fan and cowl on the engine?
Check all and replace the ignition system.
Chances are no one has looked after it properly for years, you don't...
RCM faults can be difficult to trace, what the fault reads is not always the fault present.
You could try disconnecting the airbags, ignition off, and replacing with a 2 Ohm resistor, then repeating your test.
If the same fault remains and least...
Not really familiar with this model, but did the early ones have a PBM ?
I could be wrong, likely, but I think the control went direct to each rear wheel motor.
There was also an emergency release behind the centre console, something that should...
The link rod on our freelander 2 failed while we were on holiday. I think that the rubber part that sits behind the ball and socket mechanism failed, causing the arm to fall out. I did a quick repair in a Croatian car park with a piece of...
