Default Factory tire air compressor

I had a E2 code on my air compressor in the boot and I took it apart and found that it was a connection had come undone. Plugged it back in and everything is working properly. Just a heads up.

Thanks. I've had E4 a few times which meant something along lines of "pressure mismatch problem" and software updates fixed it.

Will keep an eye out for E2.

Thanks for posting. I had the same issue, plugged the small 3 pin connector back in, easy fix👍

I think what happens with continued use of the factory air compressor, the vibrations will cause the plug to loosen up and disconnected. Happened on multiple occasions during a Land Rover customer experience trip.
