I believe you just need to “clear the fault code”, or reset the code. Any specialist should be able to do it, but will obviously charge.

This has worked for my 2006 car, check that the height sensors are fitted correctly, and that they have not flipped the other way around, start the car and let it run for a few minutes, carry out the old steering angle sensor reset trick.... full left lock / hold 3-4 seconds / go to centre / hold / go to full right lock hold / back to centre. Wait a minute then see if the suspension will operate. Usually works for me, sometimes after doing this twice, I have had this message a few times but never needed my reader to reset the fault. 2006 year may be different ? |

Turning lock to lock apparently doesn’t work on the earlier l322 models ?

It is the standard reset procedure in the BMW cars too (I have one).
Silly question, but are you doing this with a door open ? The compressor cuts out when any door is open, Rob |

You really need to get a dedicated code reader and keep it in the car at all times. For most including me the IIDtool is to expensive however there are much cheaper options albeit with slightly less functionality. I would recommend investing in an Autel AP200 Bluetooth dongle that works with a smartphone. You should be able to get one for around A$85. This will work on any Land Rover vehicle and is not locked to one specific vehicle, it can do most thing you will ever need, it cannot write / reprogram modules however I understand it is able to calibrate the suspension heights. 2007 TDV8 VSE

Haha, yes, car doors are closed. Error message just pops up straight away, no pump sound.

Autel AP200 does not need internet once set up. The software does update regularly which is free and like any other diagnostic tool will require an internet connection for the update. I have one, its excellent for the cost. As You see I am in Perth and regularly travel remotly solo and would not leave home without the Autel.

The system is locked out due to the hard error. Nothing will run and nothing will come back on till you clear the error. No good listening for the compressor, door open or closed…. You need to clear the error and then go from there.

All good now. The Autel AP200 unit has more detail in the error messages available.

Nice one. Hopefully good for a few more years now.
