Default Stalling after 10 minutes of run time

My 2003 discovery just started stalling after 10 minutes + of run time. Also, dashboard lights and wipers intermittently work ... any answers?

How long do you have to wait until it starts back up?

I had the same stalling problem on my 2001 Disco. It turned out to be a faulty CPS.

When it stalls, if it starts OK after cooling off, that is an indicator of a bad Crank Shaft Position switch, driver side rear of engine. You can pour cold water on it to speed up reset. If it is the problem, it kills spark to engine, you can test for spark at one of the plug wires disconnected. The sensor is like $70, if you swap it plug in new one and let it hang, and put every little nut and spcaer back on in exact sequence. See attached.

Default Stalling Land Rover

Thank you all for the replies... Sounds like the stalling might be the CPS. The other thing that is happening is the windshield wipers will only work if I use the wiper fluid mode, then they work, the speedometer lighting does not come on right away, sometimes the directionals and tail lights will not come on right away.

Dunno about the wiper issue but had the same stall issue a few years back and it was the crank shaft pos sensor as buzz said. Get the stall issue fixed and then while you are there maybe check all the connections to get a better diagnosis
