Thanks for the heads up, watched half a dozen of his Videos and he is the man. I wish he lived next door. Battery now fully charged, and indeed it was down at 33%, although i had spent a couple of hours running Diagnostics on Thursday. No further progress, still trying to figure out the root...

Made a little headway today. Couldn't sleep (things on my mind) so up at 4am surfing the net and sussing out the can bus thingy. Pushed the boat out and bought a break out box to make checking the diagnostic port and comms easier and what a godsend. Plugged it in and then plugged scanner into...

Fitted a new battery yesterday and fault still occurs. Old battery was on its last legs, so not a wasted expense. Prior to fitting battery yesterday morning i was in a no start situation. I had the existing battery disconnected and charging for a couple of hours intending to carry on...

Got to admit, i haven't checked that but i have no starting issues, ie slow to crank, and the fault is so random and can occur whilst driving at 2-3000rpm i feel it is so unlikely. I will however drive and record live data with battery voltage today and see if anything unusual. I will also fit a...

Gidday, Back again after quite a while, been trouble free for a couple of years. Most unusual, but now back to normal, "Will my wagon start today?" A few days ago after driving home, message on the radio, "vehicle fault, system shutting down" and it did. Next day it happened a couple more...

Gidday, I have a Discovery 2 and the dashboard, speedo, tacho etc stopped working the other day. I have checked all the fuses and basic stuff, but i am unable to find the cause. I have found a couple of wiring diagrams online, but the colours of the wires do not correspond with my wiring...

Gidday, back again for more help. Today i disconnected the battery so i could remove it and gain access to the EGR valve on the passenger side of my bus. New EGR fitted and all back together without too much hassle, BUT NOW I HAVE NO RADIO..... Can anybody throw any light my way? Please. Am...

Gidday, Trying to set up bluetooth connection in my 2008 RR Sport 2.7 TDV6 and not having much luck. If I look in the owners handbook I interpret it as though all RRs around that era have bluetooth, though i am not sure mine has. Can anybody throw any light on it? The stereo has a telephone...

Great technical advise, easy to follow and informative.;)

I weed eated around mine as it will be stood for a while!!!!!:(:(:(:(

I think mounts are different, i got some off another P38 to use on mine but they were different. Mines a 98 and i think the one i borrowed from was a 96.

If the cooling system is pressurising then it's not cooling enough or it's getting combustion gases in there. There could be heaps of causes. If it's had a stop leak in there then the radiator could be partially blocked (it could be partially blocked even if you haven't had a stop leak in...

I swapped the power board from the donor BECM to my housing with the original logic board in and there was no change, everything was still up the chute, but at least it allowed me to drive it home. Tomorrow i will put my original power board with the logic board from the donor Becm and fit back...

Hi Marty, Im guessing that the logic board is the board on the bottom of the 2 in the Becm, the one without all the bits and pieces on? I'm not sure of the condition of the donor Becm in any way, I just decided to fit it and see what happened and as I say, when we turned it on after fitting...

So, the options are, fork out for some expensive single use software or send my Becm off for repair. Any ideas who is a reliable Becm repairer please?

The Faultmate is Vin locked, as regards sorting out the original Becm, i think i would have to send it to the UK and that means it would be off the road for quite a while. There are a couple of electronics places over here, but given all the headaches i have read about, i'm not sure i would want...

I looked at it and wished it would go:rolleyes:

Mild progress, fitted the second hand Becm and all the electric shenanigans are gone, but the beast will not start. Hooked up the MSV Extreme and it will not communicate, it says it is programmed for a different ecu. is there anyway I can overcome this? if I put in my old Becm and try to get an...

How can i tell which is which BECM? although if my assumptions are correct then it is fairly obvious.

Transmission on my new Rangey will be removed when Old Bess is back up and running.
