    abs fuse?

    That's the one that I pulled in my Disco I and it stopped the ABS from activating at inappropriate times. I also removed the two screws securing my dash gauge cluster to the dash and removed the ABS bulb so it's not always lit annoying me. Haven't regretted it for one second. Just drive...

    1994 discovery battery is overheating(cooking)

    I don't presume to know more than Joey considering his experience and history but I'd check elsewhere before purchasing a new alternator. Also, you should be able to find a parts shop that will test your current alternator. When you mention that the fuse melted I assume that the fusable link...

    strange things

    Joey, Where's the heater core located on a 96' LR Discovery SE7, 4.0 V8, Auto? I'd assume it's under the dash somewhere but I don't have a manual handy. How much of a pain is it to replace one usually? Any tips, other needed parts, etc? Looks like I'm looking at around $150 for a new...

    I think I thought of an alternative to installing a switch / wire to the driver compartment of my 1996 D1 aux / offroad lights. My D1 had the factory fog lights, which you can turn on and that automatically switch off with high-beams. After trimming the valence off my front bumper I'm going to...

    Dead Discovery

    The only thing that's not working now is the fuel level sender. I'll have to research that and check the wiring from the sender forward. Any areas in particular stick out in your mind that I should check for wetness / connection issue? DigitalNY

    Dead Discovery

    Hrmm... Methinks the discovery just didn't like being wet because it's been a day and a half and suddenly it starts this afternoon!?! One of the things that I had tried this morning was the EKA Code Procedure just in case the alarm was in some quasi-armed stated. Now my alarm works, which it...
