Park Brake fault

Hi, I've got this problem on an HSE auto - warning on dash says park brake fault, the orange handbrake indicator stays on and the area that should show what gear its in is blank, unless I push lever into command shift when it says "sport" and shows no. of gear selected - reverse sensors are working Ok though. Does post above say that there is no workaround / reset solution for the auto?
Am I going to have to go to a dealers to have it reset? will that be covered under warranty, which only has 3 months left?
thanks for any advice, Alan

Not sure if it works for automatic but give it a go in reverse on low see what happens

100 miles and 2 days of Disco ownership before the automatic relase on the EPB failed along with gear selector and reversing sensors.

Up and running again thanks to this site Bow down

PArk brake fault

So, took it into dealers under warranty - diagnosis was wiring fault (rather than x-y sensor as suggsted through various posts on here). THe wiring fault was fixed and I no longer have the "park brake fault" showing on dash, also reversing lights are working (although they may have been working all along). Only thing is that dashboard still isn't displaying what gear its in, except when in sport / command shift mode. Presumably it should also display what gear its in in full auto mode. Can anyone confirm this as its due tp go back to dealer again for another (unrelated) warranty fix and if it should be displaying gears I'll ask for that to be fixed at same time. Thanks again, Alan

As far as I know, the automatic will simply display "D" when in normal drive mode. This is based on my '05 model.

THanks Dave & Dave!
yes. looks like its only supposed to show gear numbers when in command shift, otherwise just a "d" - still trying to understand all of the technicalities & complexity of this big beast (which I'm loving!)
Dave T - hope everything going well with yours again.

Also wanted to mention (I have an auto V8 petrol) that I had total loss of my command shift/no numbers showing/no lights on the gearshift console due to a bad circuit board INSIDE of the gear selector while working for LR.

Probably caused by the previous owner spilling something in there.... Replaced the board with a donor one from a RRS and all problems were solved. Know these things tend to short out due to spillage often.

Too bad the board cannot (as far as I'm aware) be purchased separately - LR will only sell you the ENTIRE gear selector!

D3 Manual Gear indicator

Had a problem with the rear parking sensors, auto handbrake release and gear indicator on a go slow. This all stemed from being stuck in very heavy traffic on a French motorway and a lot of 1st gear and clutchwork. The fault showed up as a parking brake fault. Took it to main dealer who gave me an estimate to replace the reverse light switch and parking brake actuator for £1000.00!! Mmmm I thought, read the attached forum and gave it a try! Selected reverse then moved up through the gears sequentially coming to a stop in 6th, taking the key out and waiting for the park brake light to go out and hey presto - problem solved! Thank you D3 Forum Very Happy

2005 Discovery 3 TDV6 S Manual Zambezi SilverDiscovery 3

Had the parking brake failure come up on mine and it didn't clear after resetting the xy sensor......

Turned out to be a battery issue as I had recently replaced the battery with a correct spec non genuine version.

The time that the engine took to crank was a fraction of a second too long and this triggered the fault. as I was sceptical I swapped the non genuine battery for another one of the same make and the problem continued so I returned the battery and bought the genuine LR battery, rest the sensor and everything has been fine since the change to genuine battery!

park brake amber light,no gear display,.

hi guys
I am at the moment on the isle of skye visiting for new year have got to get back to leeds on wednesday.
I have a problem with
last week before i left leeds I had a park brake fault come up I have had adjustments done but I still have amber light on the dash display.going in to adventure next week for reseting of display.
I have noticed over the last couple of days that the gear slected display has a time lag of about 5 seconds not an issue I can live with that on the short term.
I know have no reversing lights and a slipping clutch.
I have had a look at previous posts and I am hoping the going through the gear re teach process will solve my problems until i can get back to Leeds on wednesday.

Any one had any issues the same and is it going to be as simple as I hope it could be.

Help
