    Off Topic Headphones (Aircraft)

    I'm not at all sure this is right. Usually, on a computer, red is for the microphone input and blue or green is for headphones. I think the blurred logo near the red socket is meant to represent a microphone. In my experience, 4 contact jacks usually use 2 or 3 for mono or stereo audio and the...

    L322 Christmas Tree in September

    Steve, If you do find a replacement and it proves the LCM is faulty, I'd be very interested in getting hold of the old broken one. I have been investing in more modern soldering technology and preparing to practice on tiny soldered things in the hope that when I get my LCM on the dining table...

    can i swop towbar

    When I was looking at L322's, I asked about towbars. The result of the answers and other research made me avoid ones without an original towbar and electrics. The electrics were what put me off. My L322 came with a detachable towball. I really want to replace that (swap anyone?) with a...

    P38A Accident....

    No, it was when I had the Grand Cherokee. I replaced this with the back-to-LR L322 about a month ago. It's one reason why I'm wondering whether I can find some cheap way of swapping the wheels on the RR so it has big tyres.

    P38A Accident....

    A few months ago on a hot day I was sitting in the local Tesco car park waiting for the wife to re-appear with the shopping. There was a car parked facing me and another in the space to the left facing me. I noticed the driver there similarly waiting for someone. The space next to me was empty...

    Defender for towing

    That is probably true in that I believe the model above my GC would lock diffs at the front and back and also in low range the centre diff at the transfer box was permanently locked. Mine just had the centre diff permanently locked in low range. This is great for when only one wheel touches the...

    Defender for towing

    I had 2, 110's for towing the 3.5 ton boat. The 200tdi was much better because of the power steering and radial tyres, but my clutch knee went. I think the clutch pressure needed may have had something to do with the ailment. I replaced it with an auto Disco1, which was excellent apart from the...

    L322 RSW EAS software

    Further to the picture referred to above, mine sits under a little cover that has to be pulled off and then dangles on a little plastic cord getting in the way. The narrower side of the plug is to the offside (outside) of the car.

    Looking for a Vogue

    I'm new here but there's a holidaychicken gone over to the dark side of FullFatRR. I think he himself may actually be his "friend" who has lost all the keys to his L322. Not sure if this will get me banned mentioning it, but I'm having a hard time keeping up with all the postings there and...

    L322 key fob will NOT sync

    I doubt if this will help, but I had to have several goes through the instructions before getting my 2 keys working and sync'd. What I did notice is that there are discrepancies between the various sets of instructions. For example the instructions from RSW Solutions say to close and lock the...

    L322 Speedo lighting and build data. Newbie alert.

    Hmmm, yes the vendor said to get to know Ian Barclay. Some good places along that road including a man in a yard who found the "unobtainable" wheel I needed for the boat trailer under the stairs in his office. I need a spare wheel for the L322. It came with a spare tyre but no wheel.

    L322 Speedo lighting and build data. Newbie alert.

    Further info: at 0120am I went out in the pitch dark and turned on the lights. Speedo and message area lit, but quite dim. Tried shining an LED torch where the photodiode is supposed to be and tried waving it around in case it was not where the manual said it was, but there was absolutely no...

    L322 Speedo lighting and build data. Newbie alert.

    **For some reason sending this didn't work, so trying again now its gone dark** I've just been out this sunny afternoon, and I can't see any difference with the lights on or off except that the lower green bar goes from dim green o off with the lights on. With the lights on at night the green...

    L322 Speedo lighting and build data. Newbie alert.

    The perspex looks fine, so I've set it up to "Ping" at 29mph while I either save up or build up the courage to start poking at the dash or elsewhere myself. Meanwhile, I've downloaded the build spec, so with that and RAVE I am confident I'll eventually find out how and what is supposed to work...

    L322 Speedo lighting and build data. Newbie alert.

    OK, been out in the dark, and it all seems to be OK, but with the little knob turning it from dim to off. It is so dim as to be useless in heavy cloudy daylight, which is a bit disappointing, and I still don't know if the mythical photo diode should control this. I suppose I'll get used to...

    L322 Speedo lighting and build data. Newbie alert.

    Yes, OK so the knob is vertical. I found that I had downloaded RAVE, but it was filed under Disco from when I was chasing them, so that's sorted that. I'll have to go out when it's dark and check, as I see a reference to a light sensitive diode somewhere in the instrument panel area. Does an...

    L322 Speedo lighting and build data. Newbie alert.

    So I have now purchased a '54 reg L322 having failed to find a decent auto D2 or 3 at a sufficiently low price. I did take in the advice here to look for a P38, but again the only locally advertised one was manual. The L322's faults seem to be mainly cosmetic and non-urgent, but today in the...

    A few questions I am new to Land Rovers.

    My first 110 had cross ply tyres, no power steering and the 2.25 petrol engine. Took a bit of time to get up to speed, but great to drive and maintain (only up to basic level and when I was younger). Interesting roadholding made the Mersey Tunnel and roundabouts spectacular challenges even...
