I am certainly not an expert but I had an intermittent fault in gear position monitoring system which was very difficult to track down taking several months during which I read up everything I could about the system so have a basic understanding of it and little else to do with automatic...

A couple of things you should be aware of,, Fault code P705 faulty XYZ Switch Is not a definitive diagnosis of a faulty XYZ Switch itself but that a fault has been recorded in the gear position monitoring wiring circuits anywhere from battery to bcu to xyz switch to gear box ecu and this...

Search discovery 2 parts . Paul Heath

Have you tested fuse F23 in fuse box under steering wheel as this is used by bcu to energise starter coil relay. Neither the bcu or idm (intelligent driver module) an integral part of the fuse box under steering wheel record or store their faults so it is impossible to test them . To better...

Look for July 12 2019, D2 1999 workshop manual post in here as there are links in this to allow you to read or download rave, official land rover d2 workshop manual which covers both v8 and td5 engines.

BCU are no longer available from land rover. Do not know what used BCU availability is like in Australia but if you really get stuck search callrova, Uk company only people who rebuild d2 BCU so if you are offered a rebuilt one it will be one of theirs.

Search for VDR 100090-ENG-6 the English / European, 1999 onward version of the D2 workshop manual which can be down loaded or opened from the www.fuddymuckers.co.uk web site in pdf form, (I used a kindle fire). This does not contain the wiring diagrams or electrical library.

To better understand your problem the following information may be helpful. When the automatic transmission ecu ( located under passenger front seat) recognises any of about 17 faults it sets the default position of flashing M+S lights and limp mode and records the appropriate fault code. Once...

Which discovery do you have and year

Until you have the fault codes read by land rover discovery 2 compatible reader all comments are just speculation. When you have them post on here and people can then give you informed advice,,, jumping from one possible cause to another and spending money on ad hoc fixes can be very expensive.

M+S flashing lights and limp mode can be quite a difficult fault to trace especially if it is an intermittent fault, Rave lists about 17 causes so if you can speak to your specialist garage and see if they will clear all your fault codes and then take it back when the fault has occurred so that...

From the screen shot the engine does not appear to be running. Not sure what battery should read when engine is off but is 11 volts low. Could the CAN time out fault be caused by oil contamination of the engine ecu via red plug.

2011 freelander sd1 gs. (face lift). Some kind soul has apparently pried the cap from the fuel filler flap from my above car. Online search has found part no. LR 002242 which looks to be the part. Two questions 1) Will this part fit all freelander 2 to 2014 or is it only to 2010 pre facelift...

Does this happen every time you engage reverse gear weather you move from park or neutral and do you actually go backwards when reverse is engaged. I ask as if you do actually engage reverse gear and go backwards then the automatic transmission Ecu is receiving the correct signal from the xyz...

Thanks for your replies, seems I have time to start saving. Any idea of cost. What is entailed, engine out or not.

I have a freelander 2 sd4, built Jan. 2011 just coming up to 60,000 miles and wonder when the timing belt will need changing and how big a job it is.

Had the same experience with all three td5s I have owned, and it has never developed into a 3 amigo problem and did not create a fault code, so until the tc light stays on I would just ignore it

If you had an electrical fault within xyz switch or associated circuits you would have flashing m+s lights and limp mode. Sounds like the gear selector needs syncing with xyz switch, either switch has moved or cable has stretched. With regard to changing up gear, have fault codes read by...

If the new hubs you used do not have 60 tooth exciter rings, the signal received by the abs sensors will be incorrect and trigger 3 amigos. This is a known problem with some cheaper hubs.

Intermittent faults in the electronic gear selection system on a d2 can be very difficult to diagnose as it takes only a fraction of a second disruption to the feed to the electronic automatic transmission ecu to cause the flashing m+s lights and limp mode and once engaged requires a complete...
