2002 Land Rover Discovery Series II - Answered Questions & Fixed issues
Abs light on in land rover
Hi,
In Td5 circles this problem is known as 'the 3 amigos' !
One of the causes is a faulty abs sensor, the abs sensors let the ecu know what 'speed' each wheel is doing and thus control the abs, hd & tc.
Check that the wires to each have not been damaged and that the plugs are firmly in as apart from 'off road' damage it is possible that something happened when the brakes were getting worked on.
Another cause can be the wheel bearings....
If there is nothing obvious then get it plugged in as said in previous answer and this will tell you which wheel is giving the problem.
Hope this helps,
Iain
How can I fix my windows ?
The rattle will be loose screws/bolts in the linkages and maybe the regulator needs to be changed.
Remove the door trim and inspect everything. Tighten all bolts you can reach. Spray all of the points that can rattle with white lithium grease Test the window lifts before replacing the trim.
Attaching towball to towing tongue
It always goes under the nut as it is intended to stop the nut unscrewing. Anyone who has got it against the tow ball has got it wrong.
Windows are loose, how do I fix
Power windows operate by a motor that lifts or lowers the glass panel. Once the motor jumps the track, it's time to replace the entire motor assembly.....you'll have to remove the interior door panels, usually screws and pop in type barbs glued to the door panels. It's not hard, but it does take some patience....
I was happily driving my TD5 this morning in the
I have a 2003 Disco and it is doing the same thing!! it would go off if I placed the truck in park and turn off the engine. It now stays on and the transmission is slow to start, kind of sluggish but runs fine. Any further findings on a correction?
Location of brake light switch fault on 2002 discovery freelander
The brake light switch is on top of brake pedal arm. Check your bulbs, and connections to the rear lights (unplug harnesses and clean the connectors as well as bulb(s) etc... )
Also, it (shouldn't) be the brake light switch if you can shift out of park. Good luck.
Could it be from oil cooler
Sounds like a broken head gasket, or water pump seal. If water is in exhaust it is most likely the water pump.
2002 landrover discovery desil will not start manual and sports lights flashing
I assume the 'manual' you refer to is part of the Green M + S lights and not a manual transmission. If your vehicle is an auto transmission, your problem is possibly related to the XYZ switch on the left of the transmission housing. You cannot start the vehicle if the ECU thinks the vehicle is not in park or neutral, and the contacts in the XYZ switch provide the signal for the ECU to know this. Try putting the selection lever into P and then through the gears a couple of times. If the starter is turning then the xyz switch is not the prime starting problem. You are not getting fuel to the engine. This could be be a failed fuel pump, blocked fuel filter or the fuel pump inertia cut out on the engine firewall. This should give you some things to check before asking for the tow truck. Good luck.
2002 land rover discovery oil pan removal?
Your problem is that now, the gasket glue is the only thing holding it . Use a SOFT hammer, rubber preferably, and tap the pan where it meets the engine. Once loosened, GENTLY pry it away from the engine , moving down and around the outside, using a wide flat screwdriver. It will drain fluid as soon as it starts to give, be ready for it.Leave two bolts, positioned on two adjacent corners in, loosely, so the entire pan doesn't fall away, spilling fluid everywhere. Good luck !
Drivers seat not working
It could either be a switch or a fuse, The cheaper fix of course is the fuse,next would be the switch, the most expensive would be the motor
Problem starting engine
Sounds like Fuel or Fire is the problem. Check fuel pressure at the rail(s), needs to be minimum set point for your vehicle. (Autozone or similar can tell you the specifics) If that is good, then it is likely you have weak spark. 2002 says it is over 10 years (100K+ miles). If that is the case, and the Spark Plugs are original, then replace them all. Would not hurt to replace the wires too, but that can be put off as long as you do not damage them while replacing the plugs. Good luck.
Hard start 2 or 3 attempts,thenfires up
IS YOUR VEHICLE A DIESEL ONE OR PETROL? IF IS A DIESEL ONE CHECK FOR ANY GLOW PLUG (S) BLOWN. IF IS PETROL CHECK FOR A FUEL PRESSURE PROBLEM,COLD START OR AND TIGHT VALVES.
