    I can't, with the battery disconnected, key in ignition position 2, battery reconnected, I can operate the sunroof and rear windows but not the front windows? I guess I could reach in the rear window and try?

    Ok, so I tested door lock micro switches using the instructions on p38rangerover.com and they appear to work ok, but still can't get the car to recognise any input from the door key? I disconnected the battery again, put the ignition in position 2 and reconnected the battery and set the sunroof...

    Thanks for the advice chaps. I can't get to the stage where the car will allow me to enter the EKA code, I've tried key in drivers lock, turn 4 times to lock position but nothing is registering, so possibly failed door lock micro switch. Marty, I'll try and find your downloadable file for micro...

    '99 p38 2.5 dse immobiliser problem

    hi all I picked up a 1999 2.5 p38 dse last week and have a major problem! I'll start by saying that it's had the 'sunroof not set' message displayed since I bought it but as the sunroof worked perfectly I just dismissed the message. So I went out to drive somewhere today, turned the ignition and...

    I should think that I'm pulling about 1000kg of caravan with about 500kg in the back of the truck,was really disappointed when I came to my first slope! How do I get the boost linkage right? I was wondering about keeping it in fourth towing on the motorway but being new to land rovers I wasn't...

    I'll get it booked in for a service as soon as I'm back,don't fancy my chances of getting parts in rural France! It just seems like its under fuelling but I can't find any info on adjusting the CAV pumps?
