How many miles, when was the last tune up, what was done during the last tune up and what brand/parts did you buy? What are the codes? Did you have them read? Without codes and more info sadly not much we can do but guess....

I guess the wipers need changed.... (sorry couldn't help myself)

thanks for replying. had my 72 month/ 90k service done in august, no warning lights on prior to service. not due for my 78 month/ 97.5 yet. miles on disco 95k; recently did an oil change and afterward service light came on. prior to 90k service replaced oxygen sensor and abs modulator in the spring.

yeah, replaced wipers except rear, lol. this week rear wiper will be replace.

Why guess, go to your local parts store and have them read the codes, then get back to us with the fault code numbers. When you had the 90K done did you replace the plug wires and have all 4 02 sensors been replaced?

First thing you need to do is get the exact fault code number not what someone has told you, go get them read again also include your mileage as well as the trucks tune up history as well as plug wire replacement.
