Cant Select Low Range

Hi, looking for advice. I have a 55 plate D3 2.7TDV6 Auto and I love it, however it wont select low range. I get no errors on dash when I try either. I can select the ride height and mode but not low range. It was working but now stopped. I believe that the fact there is no error message this may be the switch failed, a dealer wants £250 to replace the module but is unsure if this would fix it?

Anyone had the same issue? anyone got advice please. Loving my D3 55 plate

Are you putting the car in neutral before you select low ? In the Beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

Car would tell you to select neutral if that’s as the case. It should anyway.
Mine did this, was the switch failed.
I bought a used one for about £35, you have to buy the whole panel with the air suspension switches too.

Had the same problem with mine when I first bought it, the switch was covered in coffee & silicon spread when I took it out, be aware there are two colours of course I bought the wrong colour had to change the trim, Discovery 3 HSE 07

Thanks Gents, to confirm I have run the low range and it worked great. Now it won't select so you have confirmed my thoughts I need a new switch. £35 seems a bargain all the ones I have found are upwards of £90. Will have to keep looking. Loving my D3 55 plate
