Got a filing cabinet in my garage with two draws full of books about LR products, circuit diagrams, some harness drawings, lots of connector details and loads of 'service bulletins' - at least up to when I retired! Also I have five book cases in my home so I can read them all several times if...

Update number two. Following Serrafery advise I looked for but could not find the 'Utility' button however as a Dyslexic I know to read everything at lease twice if not more and there it was hiding on page two of one window. Clearly operator error! My thanks to Serrafery and PopPops for their...

PopPops, Yet more reasons to thank you for your support. My niece has just messaged me and plans to stay in tomorrow and do some research for me; the parcel she is expecting is purely incidental... However I have always thought it is something simple than has fallen over it just needs...

PopPops, Thanks for your support I find it most encouraging. Your print out would appear to be the same as mine except the Global Update, mine is 20200205; not sure how this effects the output information. I have just spent 45 minuets on the vehicle working my way up and down every branch of the...

PopPops, Thanks for your interest however please see above as that is where I was sent as a page 2 after pressing TD5 engine; perhaps you now appreciate my problem. I must point out that I am working on my Appel Mac but Nanocom seem to be using Microsoft operating system. I am not totally sure...

I am sorry to disagree with Fery I can only assume that Nanocom reproduces the version we each have on the emulator as well as on the Nanocom itself. As mine was only registered this morning I feel that I would have the newer version. My page 2 has ACE + picture, D2 Autogearbox + picture and D2...

Nether the emulator or indeed my Nanocom follow the path you have defined. I think those very helpful software types have invented a update version as they appear to like doing almost every hour...

Serrafery, Thanks for lead in but I do not have any 'Utility' icon on my screen. The Screen has TD5 Engine + engine picture, TD5 Map + engine picture, SLABS with ABS (in red) and Valeo BCM with picture of locked padlocked and key. Nothing about utility! I suspect the locked symbol is my problem...

Update: I purchased a Nanocom and a new, well second hand, engine ECU, not much change from £1k... My computer savvy niece came round to help and we could got the engine to fire! But only for about one half second. Only locking and unlocking the vehicle would allow a second start. Attempts to...

Stanleysteamer, The more I work on my Disco II the more I think it was sold to me by Butch Caserdy or the Sundance Kid! The connector to the xyz switch was missing it's anti back out, the xyz switch was out of adjustment, the backlight on the odometer was broken etc. The ECU looks OK so I tried...

Sierrafery, Spent my time working on circuits and had little contact with any test equipment other than the C.A.R.D.'s system and its successor. So which test equipment would you use? Does the Nanocom come as one stand alone pice of equipment or are there several versions? I need to look at my...

I have tried Craddock's before but when I tried to order it they said "out of stock" , as did Rimmer Brothers, Paddocks and several others but perhaps I should try again. Does 'Nanocom' and 'Foxwell' have the ability to reprogram the vehicle as well as TestBook? When I find another ECU I am...

I just need that brick, I have the rest...

I could connect to the ideal diagnostic bit of kit if I can fine the connection component. Has anyone out there access to a DTC0006A component or knows where I can purchase one. There appears to be a company in Germany who repair these but as the site is all in German I am unsure if the could...

Fortunately I have my 44year old series III to get about with, I was actually at Solihull when it was built and I might have even walked past it one day, but it is not the most comfortable transport for a pensioner. But then again I have no time constraints either. Thank you for your thoughts...

PopPops, Thank you for that heads up. R6 has a resistance of 103.6ohms while R9 and R1 has a resistance of 1.4ohms and 1.2ohms respectively. The high readout of R6 is probably a variable temperature switch otherwise the glow plugs would operate at all times and not when they are needed...

Like you Stanleystreamer I have no idea what goes on inside those magic boxes but I can read a specification list. My job in the closing years of my employment was to supply each box with what the engineer specified. For this knowledge of circuits was an advantage as once I found a drawing that...

I worked for Land Rover for 43 years the last severn were spent drawing the circuit diagrams, which software converted into harness drawings, these are the drawings you have indicated; I worked almost exclusively on Defender! Prior to EDS department I worked on System Test where we ensured that...

Sierraferys, in response to your request:- R1 and R6 coil voltage, across pins 85 and 86, both show 0V on cranking! Battery volts on cranking:- 10.95V. This is pointing the finger directly at the ECU I am thinking? Anyone got a good ECU I could use to prove this point? Now the air suspension...

The spectacle of a failed ECU is always present! If you get one off E-bay then is it usable and if it is and it proves the original one was usable then a very expensive test. Do you know of anyone who could test an ECU or replace one? Then again I will need some form of reprogramming equipment...
