Hi I just wanted to say thank you for this video. I had the three amigos come up in my 2004 Freelander. Bought the autel, followed your instructions and replaced the faulty LHF sensor. Perfect. Great advice we’ll presented
Great vid. I have a 2001 v6 Freelander, would you recommend me a nice scan tool? I think is a pretty simple ECU (Siemens), but I'm not sure if with a Launch I could read Transmission and ABS codes.
Thanks. I have used an Autel AP200C to read the ABS system, essential for identifying abs sensor faults, as well as normal obd2 stuff. It may have an auto bix add on software bit, but i have not investigated. I suggest you email Autel the seller of that unit. See my review on the ap200c scanner on my channel. I also used it on my recent video fixing “the rhree amigos”. Alternatively its worth looking up pscan.
Hello mate, I really do appreciate your great efforts and awesome channel, I did order the Brake pedal switch for my freelander1 V6 2004. And changed it( of course left it in) . Still is a new problem with Stepper motor which engine does'nt work as it should ,the engine indicator hoes up and doen with the engine is on, it have to order it the new Stepper motor according to car meck. Is it the same Stepper which match the 1.8 engine or 2.5 has the different one( on net just have seen for 1.8) from different websites in EU., I'll so happy for the answer if you could reply today plz🙏🙏. I appreciate your efforts and time. Cheers from SWEDEN ✨️
Hi and Thanks. First I would recommend pressing the accelerator pedal to the floor very briefly, this should reset the stepper motor position. If that doesn’t work scan for any engine codes, as it may be an o2 sensor fault throwing out the mixture. e.g. see th-cam.com/video/YFU8Dj0qWKw/w-d-xo.htmlsi=a1fUf_BVd4sp99uM
The iac for the 2.5 engine is this probably www.ebay.co.uk/itm/375074217586?itmmeta=01HRFY9TECT8Y8158PS6F6A27X&hash=item57542a5e72:g:bBcAAOSw-yllXiEz&itmprp=enc%3AAQAIAAAA0HP7t5IQzMXMp9SAVKTY3lj96Pj2I9bruKyJGoS37gTFGERV037DZvOOsAx7QZZbhQciVeQwar294H8%2F9CvaghQS1y151KEEg4mbxtImlhjpTQ9EBZAYhB8htrdi64vM4uw%2FAY1Ie1l5OSXIoMiWdzsun9Qh2ro5mfknQ%2FGXxqMrF2k7BSBUEp5R8CUiBdRp5AXwfMerfRDraxK%2FNK3e9DouOWs2n2y8tUrjpefOgyLiSQZNM%2FP5T979HPCNngPDFpxgnaW5C%2FsPdcttmIDoYKw%3D%7Ctkp%3ABk9SR6Knp_7DYw
Hi, I have a question, 1.8 engines tend to overheat and I'm curious why, I saw the MODIFIED THERMOSTAT HOSE KIT on the internet and now the question is does it help at all?
When in good condition they generally don’t however I did discover one overheat scenario at idling that is completely fixed by this mod that I came up with to reconfigure the PRT thermostat into an output type one, it been running perfect since: th-cam.com/video/Fyq7yDlUKDg/w-d-xo.html
Hi I have a 2003 Freelander and the speedometer has stopped working and my parking light stays on when I'm driving. Any clue what might be causing this. Thank you.
Nope, but start with the wiring diagram from a Haynes workshop manual and trace that parking light circuit to find the fault, you may find the other fault.
Hi Don't know if you can help me ? I replace the left front drive Shaft on my Land Rover Freelander 2005 2.0 Diesel now i am getting the 3 light coming up on the dash and my diagnostic tool is showing left front wheel speed sensor periodic fault? could you give me some advice on the meta please?
@@comeinhandynow Thank for your reply. I have taken the sensor out it looks ok. after watching your video I set up the diagnostic reader to take a reading of the left and right wheel sensors at standstill it is showing 0.66km/h on both sensors but when I start to drive the right one goes up but the left one is lower and a bit erratic so I am going to try getting a new sensor and take it from there. I don't know if this could be the problem but the side shaft I got had a abs ring on but I had to take it of as it would not fit, I did call GSF car-part to see if it was the right one ad this was the only one they had on there system. Ps the one that I took out did not have a ABS Ring.
@@ReneExner I think that could be your problem, I think the later shafts were without a removable abs ring because they had magnets embedded into the shaft. The shafts I used didn't have abs rings (as pere my originals) but worked fine with the abs sensor. Find another supplier perhaps.
@@comeinhandynow I have ordered another cv joint and hopefully this will have the embedded magnets .Thank you very much for your advice much appreciate. kind regards.
I would love to give you a demo of my pscan diagnostic tool. It was specifically developed for the Freelander 1 and probably has far, far more features than the Autel. I'm in Ruislip. Are you anywhere near me?
Thanks, I hear good things about it but not used it. You are 80 miles away so not that close. I am usually up for looking at tools etc for a future need and possible YT review.
@@Bigbadbaza pscan can talk to every ECU on a Freelander 1, except the instrument cluster and the North American spec V6. On the ABS it can do the power bleed brakes routine, and reset the inclination sensor. It can code in central logging fobs. It can log live data to your hard disk whilst you drive around (very useful for intermittent ABS faults). With the 1.8 it can put a SAWS map into the ECU. With the BCU pscan can trigger outputs (you can do things like winding the windows up and down). I have an icarsoft LR3 and won't even connect to many of the ECUs on our Freelander.
@@philip_christian there is such a tool - "delphi Car" - hacked, with a Chinese adapter (less than $80). works via bluetooth. can write logs on the go! the program supports many cars up to 2021! and rid of greed)

Save that freelander from rust ! 😢
Yes, have done. See my other video on quick waxoyl spraying

Check the position of the abs sensor on that hub hasn’t been disturbed or damaged.

Will the autel work on a 2002 freelander 1 ?
Yes i believe so, but you can double check with the sellers / autel
