Default Ride Height Switch not working - everything else is normal

I am having an issue with my LR3/D3

Everything seems to be working fine except the switch for adjusting the ride height itself.

EAS seems fine as it maintains whatever ride height it’s at. The terrain response dial works and goes into whatever mode I select.
What’s especially weird is that I can make the LR3 go into off-road height by selecting Rock Crawl and switching to Lo gearing. The LR3 will go back to regular height at the appropriate speed. The indicator lights on the ride height switch side all work correctly and show the height changing in both situations. I took off the module and looked at the connections and they seem clean.
So it would seem to me that that switch is the only thing that is not working.

I don’t know how to trick the EAS into going down to access height, so I can’t say if it will go into access height for sure.

Any thoughts?

Did you ever resolve this? I'm facing the exact same set of circumstances.

Had to get a new switch as @houm_wa so succinctly stated. Unfortunately there was no trick or workaround that I could find.

I ended up getting a used terrain response module from here:

Do your homework and make sure that you have the right part number for your vin. There are at least 2 versions of this module.

The used one I got works great.

Thanks for sharing and glad to hear it worked.

I'm facing the same issue and have been eager to get confirmation of the approach before I moved forward.
