Well I dont have any lights except when you turn on the ignition so I am guessing in th great tradition of Land Rover its off to look for blown fuses and worn through wires.

Thanks for the info.

Start with the wires under the gear-stick .. it's practically always those which fatigue off at the microswitch end. There's even a TSB about it somewhere ..

petergalileo:
Does the auto braking effect I have experienced a couple of times have anything to do with the HDC ? That system seems to be on all the time.

I really ought to get a manual for this car !!

I presume you mean the ABS system?

That is on all the time and is "connected" with the HDC.
The HDC will only work on 1st and reverse.
When you switch it on are you getting the lights on the dash?

I get the green light now, the wiring was broke and it seemed like a poor bit of design so I redesigned it using a cable tie and some gaffa tape.

This auto braking effect is I think the viscous coupling only happens on full lock when I dip the clutch manouvering about, just a guess though, still waiting for the damned book !
