troubleshooting

I am in a bind with my 07 Range Rover. By report, speakers were static-y all the time. So the shop "unhooked" the head unit. Screen is black. Button flashes orange. I took it to a stereo shop, couldn't figure out what he unplugged. Couldn't find any loose wires. They installed the new Logic 7...

When I purchased my nearly non-running RRC the PO showed me that the AC worked but he had to fiddle with the button to get the light to come on. I didn’t actually have time to verify if the air did in fact get colder. Fast forward to now, post engine repair and I have no AC. I wasn’t surprised...

Since I couldn't find much on these forums for this code, I thought I make a post with my symptoms, troubleshooting, and hopefully the results when all is said and done. So let's first start with the symptoms. Symptom: When I was idling at a stop light or in park, my engine would just die. Upon...

My passenger cooled/heated seat on the 08 RR hasn't worked properly for years -- meaning when I turn on either heated or cooled functions, the fans don't turn on and the elements neither cool nor heat. I hooked up a maxiDAS 708 and looked at the live data stream, which provides the sensor...

Attempting a brake job and the front replacement went well. The rear brake replacement is not going well, car was put in brake maintenance mode and we have tried to compress the calipers with the piston compression tool. They will not compress far enough to complete re-install. We also opened...

Hello, Well it finally happened. Our up-till-now very reliable '07 L322 is refusing to start. Wifey parked it in the driveway last evening, it's been running like a champ, and this morning it won't start. When the key is twisted to start then relaxing back to ignition on position, the engine...

Today, I was reading all the posts/threads on malfunctioning windows on the RRC's and I found many that had a link to another site that apparently used to be valid, but is no longer a valid link: http://discoweb.org/window/index.htm I assume this now dead link gave info and pics of the ECU...

Hi all, OK so I've read through some of the test procedures and will start to dismantle the door(s) soon but before that can anyone give me a guess as to the likely fix? Symptoms are: Key Fob opens rear doors and disables alarm - does not open front doors at all; Likewise the fob closes the...

Happy Memorial Day All! I hope you all got some sun and fun; I spent mine trying to finish the Range. I have a 2006 Range Rover and I did an overhaul of my suspension system. I installed a new AMK compressor with relay, 2 Height sensors (front), 2 Struts/bags and 2 stabilizer bars. I got...

I was using the RSW Solutions to manually activate my EAS compressor when I heard a spark near the spark plug. The engine is now refusing to turn over and the car won't start. Do you have any idea what the issue might be? Thank you in advance.

Electrical troubleshooting - Battery dying when car is turned off Hey guys, I wondering if any of you have a potential solution or approach for this problem: Range Rover Classic 1992, County. Im having a big electric loss. Every time I turn off the car, when I try to turn it back on, all power...

'ALARM TRIGGERED' wont start, confused after troubleshooting for a week Hello, First off I have been researching the forums and dealing with this problem for over a week now and am stuck, looking for any advice, insight, or information. I have a 1997 P38 Range rover, 4.0 SE. Never had any...

About 18 months ago I had a ‘Gearbox Fault’ message on my 1997 P38 4.6HSE (188,000km). Checked for fault codes with my Faultmate, but nothing. Continued driving for a few months with all seeming to be okay, then I got the same fault message, followed by rev counter, speedo and gauges all going...

Good day, I have rebuilt my valve block and replaced my compressor. Manually activating the pump via the ECU plug pins 1+8+26 - air is not reaching the tank as after 5 minutes I can remove all air lines without any sign of air loss. What valve needs to be checked directly after compressor / air...

Hello all! Newbie to the forum though I've been perusing these threads the last few years to diagnose small issues here and there. So, first off, a big thank you for that! I've always been able to find a thread with the information I've needed but at this point I'm at a loss and need some...

Hi all - new here. I love this site; it’s already been so very helpful, so thank you to all contributors. May I please get a confirmation that I’ve arrived at the right diagnosis for a warm start problem on a 1998 Range Rover 4.6 HSE (intermittent failure of fuel pump)? I believe the only...

P38 No Crank / No Start - troubleshooting with pictures - advice / guidance please? Good Afternoon all Had to have my P38 towed home after getting out and experiencing a no crank / no start while at a wrecking yard procuring parts for another vehicle... :shock: The irony itself is ironic...

This is my first land rover so I am very new to them. I purchased this truck about two weeks ago. I noticed hesitation while accelerating at all speeds. By pure luck I figured out that this only happens with the blower fan turned on. As soon as I turn fan off hesitation stops. Also battery light...

Hello all. I am hoping someone could help me in the quest of a no crank situation. A bit of background, I'm am not a mechanic but I really love tinkering on my anti-zombie-craft. I have a 1998 P38 that I recently did a top end job on (got heads refurbished and new head gaskets). Upon completion...
