Suspension Fault and now the headlights aren't working!!
Had a few issues recently with a suspension fault appearing after a mile or two, the icon turns yellow and pings saying suspension fault after another 10 miles or so the icon turns red "reduce speed to 30mph max" the icon then reverts back to yellow and so on it repeats - it does reset when you restart and everything seems ok. I have noticed the lights dim prior to this happening..just started the disco and the headlights aren't working (all other lights on).
Read a couple of topics regarding this issue! would you advise a new compressor is required?? fuses don't seem to have blown or am I missing something
Lots of error messages don't relate directly to what's being reported in the message text. Don't recall seeing this specific combination before, but I'd first check your battery voltage. Possibly could be that your alternator is not charging properly, especially as you are seeing your headlights dimming...Andy

No it's been happening for a month or two prior to the bulb blowing

You guys where on the right track, just had the D3 in Hillendale Nelson, for the past 2 days, and they have tested everything...Guess what it was the battery!!!!! a faulty cell The battery was only producing 11v.
Alternator checked ok
Suspension Checked OK
Just took a 50 mile drive with no suspension fault warning lights bliss!!
Again thanks to you guys as I suggested your thoughts which obviously sent them on the right track.
