Default TC and ABS light

Hey all I could use some help from someone who knows Discos! I have 3 dash lights that come on at random times but throw no codes.

The TC, ABS, and steep decline light all come on together right after a couple dings sound, like I had pushed the steep decent button.

Again it throws no codes. This may not matter but I recently had my power steering pump replaced.

Thoughts?

Thank you very much in advance...

Well the "steep incline" light usually refers to a bad flux capacitor.

But for real, those are the 3 amigos. You need a special scanner to read ABS codes. ABS amigo, hawkeye, nanocom, something like that. Do you have a LR dealer nearby?

Go to the for sale forum on this website, someone on there rents an ABS amigo that will read the codes for you.

I had this ONE time since I've owned my Disco. It happened after the truck sat a few days after a rain. The discs were a tiny bit rusty, you know, just enough to cause it to squeal when braking lightly. I pulled to a stop, and it squealed loud, then the lights came on. The discs wore smooth right away, rust gone, and I've never seen the lights since.

Maybe you have bad discs/pads, or does it squeal/chatter when it happens? Just another thought...
