That's a great video Tapps33; thanks for sharing. It's not that easy to find posts describing the location of the Satellite Radio Module (we're guessing SRM) on the LR4; the fact that it's on the passenger side (left hand drive vehicles) and in the trunk (boot for the Brits) makes it quite an interesting location, here's a screenshot of the PowerfulUK guys' Discovery 4 with DAB Radio, I'm assuming the DAB module is replaced with the SRM module in the US market:

This is the DAB module:

I’m not sure whether it replaces the satellite module, but I know we don’t have them here in the US. It’ll look a little different, but that’s where the module is located.

You’re welcome btw! That said, it was the. It’s from PowerfulUK who made the video. Although admittedly, I’ve watched their videos so much, I feel like I should have Tyler here helping me! lol!

Read what I posted above to solve your problem. It is the satellite module.

The rear quarter panel is right next to the 3rd row seating. In order to remove it, you have to remove the lower seatbelt bolt, a Phillips screw about halfway up the rear of the rear door frame, the rear cargo tie downs and trim plate, then the tailgate support wire.

This video explains it A LOT better than I can:


That said, I believe their LR4 is a 2010, so yours will look a little different. Specifically, when you remove the trim panel, you’ll see the amp, satellite module and KVM module right there in front of you. The modules are ideed “labeled” but if you’re wondering which is which, the satellite is the one with the orange fiberoptic wires going into it.

As @Blueaz said, picking up a fiber jumper is a good idea, that way you can just disconnect the fiber, jumper it and see if it fixes your problem. (I’d probably unplug the other connectors too, but you definitely have to jumper the MOST bus for everything else to work.
That guys interior is different than mine. I'm pretty sure mine has AC lines in the cargo area behind the LR panel. He has a big void in his. Perfect space for a diesel heater or a battery pack.
