Hello! This problem is well known by dealerships...A solution is to have the transmission software updated...This is not a 100% cure...The Control valve body may need to be replaced...Take the vehicle to an authorized dealer and have a diagnostic run on the transmission...They are aware of the fault...

Might be really simple like a battery terminal connector is loose. Check the connectors are tight.. if not tighten the clamps. If the terminal connector is loose you may find that you also have difficulty in starting. If terminal connectors are on tight but still have the issue then check the connections to the alternator (clean and tight) and likewise the earth return strap between the engine to the car frame. If you have access to a voltmeter the battery, with the engine off should read 12.4 volts between the terminals and 14.4 volts when the engine is running.

Hi!!
Please provide the Yr. and model of your vehicle and if you can describe the problem you're troubleshooting, I will be able to provide better assistance. Thanks

Hopefully the hydrolic system was not opened when you were fitting, in which case all you need do is pump the brake pedal a few times to achieve correct pressure. If you did open the bleed nipples or worse, you'll have to bleed the system. This will require two people or even three. One person to keep the pot under the bonnet topped up, one inside pumping the brake pedal and the third under the vehicle....The meathod of bleeding is to pump the pedal at least four times and hold it down with the foot. The peson underneath opens the nipple and as the pressure releases pushdown with your foot untill you can't push further and hold it there, at which time you yell, close! The guy underneath closes the nipple and then you begin again. the guy under the bonnet should make sure that the resviour is topped up. Begin with the wheel furthest from the brake cylinder, in other words at the rear and finish with the closest. Cheers and Regards Johngee

When the Automatic transmission gear shift is not working this is a very serious problem that causes by several reasons and one of those is completely damage transmission. It may also possible that the transmission has a very low amount of transmission fluid. However, if the fluid level is enough, another reason is Bad fluid pump or Gear selector linkage problem.

When an automatic transmission has bad fluid pump all the gears will not work, because automatic transmission depends on the hydraulic fluid pressure that is created by the fluid pump to pump transmission fluid throughout the transmission assembly to work properly.

Same with the fluid pump, when an automatic transmission has a problem on gear selector linkage all gears will not work. Gear selector is the one that determines which gear is going to operate. When a gear selector linkage is broken or out of adjustment it cannot operate properly causing the gear not to work.

Diagnose auto problem: Low transmission fluid, Faulty fluid pump or out of adjustments gear selector linkage.

When the problem is low level automatic transmission fluid, just add enough amount of fluid to fix the problem. But if the problem has nothing to do with the fluid level .Then inspect the fluid pump and the gear selector linkage, the mechanic probably will open up the transmission for better diagnosis. If the problem is not fluid pump or gear selector linkage then you has no other option but to replace the transmission assembly with a new one since the automatic transmission gear shift is not working.
Thanks. keep updated for any more query.you can rate this solution and show your appreciation.

well you give me 4 thumbs up by clicking on the thumbs near the message body. you will need to get to the back of the unit and test the wires with a multimeter. but i would not advise to try this your self where you could do damage.

The master switch has complete dominion over the window controls on all doors,the master can even present no problems,and still be bad.When the button on the passengers side ,for example,is activated,voltage is sent to the master switch before returning to the passengers side window motor,.Replace the master to repair the problem.

Check and see if the right front door window switch works. If so the master switch on the drivers door is at fault needing a replacement

It sounds to me like your master cylinder is going out, thus seeing the yellow fluid in your dash. The master cylinder hooks up to your dash. It's also called a power booster. When this leaks it wrecks havoc on your brake system. causing it to lock up, or you hit the brakes and you don't slow down. The thing to do it to take it to a brake shop for a free estimate.Check your brake fluid level and make sure you have the right amount. If you're low then it's going to be leaking out from somewhere. My best advice is this: Go to brake check and et their free estimate. Then when they tell you what's wrong with the car, if you're competent enough to do it yourself then by all means tackle it. Ill always be here to help you in anyway I can.

sound like a bad fuel filter you could also check the fuel pump to make sure that is working properly too I’m happy to assist further over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/john_2c7bb9c157d0baa8

Previous request answered.

If there are no faults on the display then you can attempt a repair , spray a solution of dish wash liquid and water onto the compressor conections and the air springs and look for bubbling.This will indicate a leak.Otherwise a diagnostic tool is required.

Question edited for clarity. My late mother worked at the Land Rover plant in Solihull and put careful miles on a Disco when it was known as the 'J Car'. Also the first Vogue with a turbo. Long time ago! Information and videos on both codes. https://www.google.com/search?q=2000+Land+Rover+Discovery+2+P1481 https://www.google.com/search?q=2000+Land+Rover+Discovery+2+P1451 ..
