2006 LR3 - Transmission fault, HDC fault, Parking brake fault, Engine system fault

[kbarker27]

A few weeks ago I started getting the following: transmission fault, HDC fault, Parking brake fault, Engine system fault accompanied by every light on the dash flashing including my hazards. I can restart it and everything will clear except the engine system fault. If I disconnect the battery everything will clear, however, it only takes a few miles for it to happen again. I took it to the dealership and they said there were several fault codes that they blamed on a bad battery and a couple bad sensors. They replaced the battery and sensors and it was fine...for a day. Now it is worse. Before I could place it in neutral while i was driving and restart it to clear the faults, now i have to put it in park and even then it takes a while to start. I removed the drivers side and passenger side kick panels and door sill plates and inspected for corroded wires. I didnt find anything. I have read where other people have had similar problems but what resolved their issues has not helped me. Does anyone know of anything else that could be causing this problem? My interior is not put back together so i can check different things fairly easily. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

take it back to the dealer for the free repair. they didn't fix the problem and they should have.
don't waste your time. you spent money.

Mine was just the brake switch under the dash.

Where is that brake switch located. I am now getting a constant illumination of the Amber Parking brake fault lt w/message.

No, I never spilled coffee in the center console.

When you say dash , do you mean the center console?

The park brake switch is a fairly easy 5 minute job, inexpensive as well. Also replace all your brake light bulbs with new OEM ones.

Here are some pictures of the brake light switch in place. It's a quarter twist to the counter clock wise to release, unplug wire, replug wire on new one, and stick it back in and twist clockwise to lock in place.

The brake light switch is blue and white.

I HAVE THIS EXACT SAME PROBLEM.

It is incredibly frustrating. I have gone back to the dealership about 5 times in the past month.

Everytime I go back, I am told that it is most likely corrosion on the wires/modules whatever, and they always call back the next day and say they found the corroded wire(not actually tell me where it was), and that it is running fine. And everytime I take it back, I drive for about a day before the messages pop up again.

Last time I picked up the vehicle, I noticed that my left front headlight was out, after I picked it up. Ideas?

I'd be interested to know if you found an actual solution to your problem.

Now, I will be taking it back into the shop again, and after reading some of your posts in these forums, I intend to ask for the following.

- Update software
- Check break switch
- Check ABS module
- Check Battery ( although I replaced the battery about 9 months ago)

Anyone have any further advise?
