wont turn over
I just did an engine swap on my 02 Disco v8. It wont turn over with the key. My neighbor has a cable with a push button on it that he hooked to the starter and it tried to turn over that way.
Also with the key on it wont come out of park, and the alarm indicator light flashes rapidly. could all this have something to do with the facorty alarm system? and what can i do abbout it? any suggestions would be greatly appreciated...............Bret

From RAVE:
l
A Light Emitting Diode (LED) situated in the instrument cluster indicates the condition of the anti-theft system and acts
as a warning to potential thieves that the alarm system is activated.
Input/Output
The LED has a dedicated signal from the BCU to indicate the status of the following:
as a warning to potential thieves that the alarm system is activated.
Input/Output
The LED has a dedicated signal from the BCU to indicate the status of the following:
l
Alarm armed: The LED flashes at 10 Hz with a 50:50 duty cycle for 10 seconds, after which the LED flashes 50
ms on, 2 seconds off until the state of the system changes.
l
Engine immobilised: If the engine is immobilised and the ignition is on, the LED is illuminated continuously. If the
engine is immobilised and the ignition is off, the LED flashes 50 ms on, 2 seconds off.
l
Alarm tampered: If the alarm has been triggered, the LED flashes at 10 Hz with a 50:50 duty cycle.
l
l
Handset battery low indicator: If the handset battery is low, the driver's door is open and the ignition is switched
off, the LED flashes two pulses of 50 ms on, 50 ms off, every 10 seconds.
Wiring diagram for starter attached, note that BCU controls cranking relay, ECM controls main relay (powers up sensors) and fuel pump relay. You should be able to remove cranking relay and jump contacts for test of starter.

Hey man, look in the general tech help section. there is a thread with tons of parts suppliers. I forgot to mention, I like to coat my terminals with vaseline and tighten them pretty damn tight. The vaseline helps conduct electricity, so it will kinda give a better connection. It may also buy you a few more days. Yes, www.roverparts.com is a great place. They prolly know most of the folks on here by a first name basis!! hahaha...hope it helps
