Try fuse 8 in the cabin fusebox. Also the flasher unit, the black one last on the right in the row of relays (R6) Do your headlights work. What have you tried/tested.

Welcome pandaman, hope it serves you well.

Be interesting to see with some photos

I bought a 1993 GL1500 GoldWing in 2012, coming back from Cornwall, the alarm started to go off at random while I was riding it, that was a fun ride home stuck in the inside lane.

Thanks Nodge, door switch panel it is then.

Have you checked the charge rate, what is it. Is the replacement alternator new, used, refurbed, genuine, aftermarket. Not impossible to buy a defective battery, highly unlikely, but I did many moons ago, has the replacement battery been tested. Was the old battery tested. Have you checked the...

Twice :)

I know Arctic has done several of these, If I remember correctly, he converted the original EGR on SWMBO's into a bypass.

Cannot believe I have not had time to get this sorted yet, said I would do it in April, anyways. My Rover 75 has a lazy locking/venting feature, hold the key in the door unlock position and all windows will open. Hold the key in the door lock position, all windows close. I love this feature...

I thought the same thing. Because the fobs work from such a distance, I wondered if it was that, or had a built in calendar that sends a signal in the stream after a pre set time. Ok there is just change the batteries, but saying the batteries are going flat when they work from half way down...

Wonder how much one cost 6 months ago, or how much one will cost in 6 months

I know the beeping twice when opening the door is the fob battery going flat. Today SWIMBO asked what it means when she hears two short beeps when she opens the door. It only happens occasionally, perhaps once a week or two, it has happened for a few months but she forgets about it. I tried both...

Sorry for the late reply, I have been going away every weekend on Big Blue. After we replaced the shoes, the difference was night and day. Took the Freelander for re test, inspector said the reading was as good as any he had seen, he applied the handbrake as normal, and the display shot up to 30...

Thanks for the replies. Shoes are fitted correctly, I did not fit them. About the only thing that makes sense Nodge. After everything was replaced, first MOT pass, 2nd MOT 1% above limit, 3rd MOT 10% and that = putting a sausage roll under one of the wheels. It is as though the cylinder...

SWMBO just took her Freelander for MOT, failed handbrake test =10%. Last year handbrake was borderline but passed, 6,000 miles since new Pagid cables, drums, shoes, springs etc less than 3 years ago. Drive is flat, SWMBO never has to park on a hill and always leaves in gear Quick test, creeping...

They're just jealous

Thanks Nodge.......better late than never

My thoughts exactly, have known these be the cause on several occasions.

It is not uncommon for the fault to be the expansion tank cap on the Rover 75, try a new cap, I have known several people replace theirs. Same engine, and Rover designed the Freelander. Also, fan resistor, fan relay, and fan pcb faults are fairly common cooling fan failure causes. Re gassing...

Wont start because a piston compressing water entering the combustion chamber, was having a party with the HG breach whilst the engine was running, now the party is over.. I never went into the cause, but I wondered if it was because the design/gasket/bolt torque could not handle the turbo...
