Thank you both what is the best way to get the fault code? I have one of those ebay OBD-ii scanner.. is there anything which is better than that?

I am getting the suspension fault on my Disco 5. The batter is also saying it is very low. Are they related? If I change the battery would the suspension fault go away or they are 2 seperate issues? Thanks in advance
