I had a couple of leaky brake lines on my 94 Disco, which I had a independent shop repair. These were evidently associated with the brake resevoir compartment nearest the booster. The leaks were under the vehicle where the lines run along the frame of the vehicle. These were leaks big enough to see fluid squirt out when the brake pedal was depressed and the fluid level in one compartment of the brake resevoir would go down.

Now I have good brake action, pedal feels quite normal, but the red ABS lights are on. The car stops straight and true. Are the ABS lights called the "Three Amigos"??

What should I do about this, if anything? There are no RR dealers anywhere near here.

 

The three amigos are when the HDC, TC and ABS lights are all on at the same time. Is that an independent LR shop?

 

Disco I's don't have the "Three Amigos" as that is a Disco II thing only.

 

OK, so maybe I am just not interpreting what I am seeing correct. Maybe it isn't a flaw.

Is the ABS red light (the letters ABS) supposed to glow red when the car is on? If it isn't, then how do I make it go out. The brakes appear to be working just peachy fine.

 

On a D1, if the single ABS light comes on, you need to get it bacl to the shop before you experience a failure or loss of stopping power. ASAP

 

THEY WON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO.

WHAT CAN I DO?

 

is it the yellow abs light in the center of the dash? or red "brake" light on? if its the yellow abs light you have a fault in the abs system, you should have normal mechanical brakes but no abs. if tis the red light ck brake fluid levelit also may be associated with the parking brake same "brake" light is used

 

Its a red "ABS" in the instrument cluster...it is just glowing red letters. There is nothing "glowing" in the center of the dash...where the radio and a/c vents are.

 

This is serious ifthis is the case. As landrover mentioned, with a ABS light on wouldn't you still have normal brake function. Just no ABS capability.

 

If you don't have a shop that can fix it, then find one cause you don't have the tools or triaining to diagnois or repair it.
