Technical Discussions / Electrical Issues Disco 1 & EC...

Last post by Riskdepartment - June 04, 2024, 09:21 AM

Im so new to this.  Please help! Its urgent!

I have many different electrical issues in my disco but these are the most glaring -

-The drivers side window wont go down, but it will go up. (its not the switch or the motor as they have been replaced)
- The brake lights are sticky and sometimes dont work. I can hear it clicking in the centre console when i press and let off the brake pedal (bulbs have been changed, brake switch has been changed. only happens when its running, not in accessory)
-Drivers side rear brake light does not activate when brake is pressed.
- While its idling, i hear a buzzing noise at random coming out of the gearbox.

I tore my centre console open and have checked for corroded connections etc. 

I downloaded an electrical troubleshooting manual for a disco 1 and I noticed the ecu/ecm in both diagrams.  Could this be the cause of my various issues?

If so, I read that I have to program the ecu/ecm to the bcu.  What is a bcu, and anyone know where I can have this done? I am in Edmonton. Please do not suggest sports car centre- ive had enough of Bert.

I appreciate any help and advice I can get.  This is my only vehicle and I need to fix this asap.

Thank you!

Hi there: I'm rebuilding a 1959 series 2 and will be upgrading the brake to a series 3 system. Do you still have this brake tower/pedal assembly?
Please text me at 780 405 9297 if this is still available. Thanks!

I don't have a pic of it but our 2001 disco 2 has just turned over 450K.   Do you think I should change the oil yet??? LOL 

I'm not sure what the mileage is on the 110 because I'm on my 3rd odometer now ahhahhahahha

the disco 2 was never known for high milage! Glad to see they do have them out there hitting huge milestones! Next one 500!

Congratulations to the LR3 and kudos to you Chris for your diligent maintenance. It's always a gamble buying a used vehicle. Sometimes we get lucky.  I bought my 1994 NAS D90 off the original owner and it just rolled over 300000. To be fair I'm pretty sure the only things original are the axles!
