failed suspension up/down switch console.

Hi guys, looking for some advice. My suspension up/down switch console has failed on my 54 plate Disco 3 HSE. The garage are quoting me £419.28 + VAT to replace which i am struggling with.

Is this my only option or are there any other suggestions out there?

I have put a separate post out to see if there are any for sale secondhand unit but any other ideas?

About £90 off EBay for the whole console,
Takes less than a Minute to swap over Thumbs Up


I did a fix many moons ago with some solder and a bit of copper wire
So if you are handy with a soldering iron ...

2nd hand one

Hi,

I got one from an online breakers for £45, easy to fit in a few minutes.


Most give you a 3 month warranty, mine has gone past that and it’s fine.

Just another option for you.

Sticker is indeed displayed.

I’m not hard to spot at the minute, I’ve got L plates on for the missus.

Do you know of anyone local with an iid tool, got a few things I want doing?

Hi,

My suspension switch has stopped working also.

Suspension works with special functions selected. E.G grass/gravel/snow and low range lifts suspension ok.

To lower back to normal, select high range and drive over 30mph.

No fault lights or error messages.

Am i to pressume that if i change the console it will work dandy?

Thanks G

Just to close

Ok

Nobody answered! Anyway, the problem has rectified itself, and works fine now. Maybe signs of an electrical bug.

Thanks G
