| Audio Shutdown in 3 minutes |
|
I am getting a battery low system will shutdown in 3 minutes when I use the radio with the engine not running. I have had the car for a year and it was a brand new battery when I purchased as the original battery had died. Do all Disco 4s have an aux battery that would need replacing as I don't think the battery would have failed in less than a year and getting no other issues on startup. If so where would it be located as can't see anything under the bonnet. If it makes a difference I do have the remote operated heater.
Thanks
Ian

All JLR products shutdown after a few minutes with ignition off, remember its not just the audio thats on but the sat nav and other stuff, its normal and just protects your battery

That's strange as it didn't do it when I first got the car. It does say low battery on the warning hence why I asked if an aux battery is fitted

You will find all Disco's do it, notorious for flattening the battery when having the radio on without the engine running, worse still eith doors open, although D4's do give you good warning.
Only vehicles with stop/start have a second battery as standard, if that is low on charge you will have a ss fault light on. It can when others can't,
It will when others won't,
It goes where others don't.
