    Cabin Light Stay On -- Doors will not Lock w/Remote

    I did some more digging and discovered this in another forum: "On a DII there are part of the door latch. On a DI they are on the door panel on the truck and work like the door switch on your fridge. Take a spray can of silicon spray and lube all of your door latches and hinges and see if...

    Cabin Light Stay On -- Doors will not Lock w/Remote

    When I close the doors the lights stay on for a very long time and the horn blows when I try to lock doors. I have checked all the doors and they are firmly closed. I do not see switches on the frame to indicate that the door is closed. How does the electrical system work for this application. I...

    MAF sensor?

    Best price I found for an MAF for the Disco II (4.0 L) was $123.85 at Parts Geek. It is the Bosch OE part.

    Check Engine; Error Codes

    Joey As noted in my previous post, we are having issues with the MAF. Could it be the result of a loose connection or not connection at the ECU (connector 3 pin 7 (5v) or pin 9 (earth) or even pin 23 (analog 0-5v)). Or could it just be that the ECU needs to be reset? Thanks, Jim

The MAF is not being recognized by the ECM; the mechanic gave the MAF a very very slight tap and it began to work. Then is stopped (I have no explaination for this). So at first, we...

    Check Engine; Error Codes

    The Check Engine light came on recently. At the same time, I noticed some performance issues, particularly when accelerating from about 25 MPH; the car would hesitate before taking off. I had the folk at my garage pull the error codes and we discovered 14 of them. P1590 -- Mfg Specific Code...

    2001 Disco II Owner

    Marty Thanks for the welcome...and my apologies for the long delay responding. Well, I decided to plunge forward -- I took the interior door panel off & removed the vapor barrier (carefully cutting with a sharp blade). At that point I decided I am not qualified to fully repair it so I got the...

    2001 Disco II Owner

    We've owned the auto for about 3-1/2 years. Been a good runner although I did have the head rebuilt about a year and a half ago. Still, all in all, it has been great. I really enjoy driving it! We got it with 81,000 on it; now have just over 175,000 miles. The head rebuild was done at about...
