It sounds like The body computer on this car is not functioning. I replaced mine and the problem was solved.

when the abs is activated it will cause the brake pedal to jump in and out rapidly, and the ABS light will flash at the same time, is this what u are asking? is this normal? yes.

We have just slved our mystery about not starting. It is the key. the no1 key is the 1 that is in synch with the comp. it will cost a fair bit to get new key and then have it aligned with systm. find original key, and you are laughing. Jean.

The fuel system is a drive by wire and there is no accellerator cable.Check the plug going into the injector pump and clean,there is probably water here stopping the correct voltage to the throttle pump spool.

get your tyre balance.

u can use a compressor to lift the car, manually insert to air pipe. if there is no leak in the system the car will stay up. but this for emergency only.

u need to send the car to workshop for proper repair.

the reason u cannot lift the car is pump is faulty, leak in the system, relay problem.

no year car told and worst no engine told and is an engine question. 1994 to 2001 made. 3 engines 1 is diesel,2.5 BMW any car that will not start ! the driver cranks the battery dead. so sure it can NOT start THE ENGINE now. the shop manual says in this case keep the battery charged to diagnose all fail failures, EFI,engines or all electrics resetting the BCM does not fix this. yes pulling battery neg lug for 15min and back on resets computers. there are 6 to 10 causes of a dead starter motor, and battery dead or loose rusty lugs tops the list, ever jumper cable , jump start a battery? call the AAA AUTO CLUB AND SAY JUMP ME rovor? NOW IF THE BATTERY WAS CHARGED AND WE CRANK IN PARK WE FAIL WE CRANK ALL CARS IN NEUTRAL , SEE IT DOES CRANK? HEAR THIS , THIS CRANKS BUT WILL NOT START https://freesound.org/people/drdeath666/sounds/687447/ WE CAN NOT HEAR YOU CRANK YOUR CAR, DEAF AND BLIND IN THIS TEXT BOX.(ME) IF IT DOES CRANK FAST, THAT IS A NO START ONLY ! WE SAY CRANKS FAST BUT WILL NOT START. (BATTERY GOOD) AND HAS UP TO 50 CAUSES AND 20 TESTS AND TOOLS TO FIND IT. (CHECK ALL FUSES. AND SCAN THE OBD2 SCAN PORT IS FIRST. THE CAR NEEDS SERVICE FOR SURE. the only tool less tests are fuses and cranking in neutral. just 1 eye and 1 hand does it. ok one more engine oil all leaked out. engine seized.grin! dip stick dry, via Mark one eyeball check/.

Question edited for clarity. We are in North America and no one here knows what 'P38' means except me as I am British :>D We are better with full 'year make model'. Question moved to correct Category. Immobilizer issue as mentioned in the Range rover Forums https://www.google.com/search?q=Range+Rover+148+interface+immobiliser ..

turn ignition switch on position for 20 seconds then try to lock and unlock doors.if you have sun roof open sun roof fully then close sun roof fully. then switch off ignition switch then try to start.

open glove box pull guide (users) see fuse page for relay names. try cranking in N PRNDL ,no just P ? that is first but if starter is silent the relay is not. so if relay too is silent it is bad park/neutral switch is dead. scan the PCM with a scan tool,OBD2. see why it fails easy. park lock out must work first. battery charged. key on, step on brake pedal shift from pARK tro neutral and crank the engine. if Park switch was bad, Neutral is not.(joy)

Turn off the ignition with them at the rest position. It should reverse it and trick the module controlling them.

The easy way need to be done:-Make sure the is not presure in the cooling system before do thisor release carefully.-Disconnect the upper hose from the radiator and fill water (coolant)through the hose to the engine. If water can't get in beacuse the thermostat is closed. Simply remove it and fill untill full.Mai Lor

A stuck thermostat is the likely cause of that. If you remove the radiator cap and start the engine you should see water movement.

i would try asking your local auto parts store

Hi there's this website something like reliable-store and it is very amazing for manual for repairing servicing anything someone on fixya recommended it to me and I thank him even today They have full manuals and it's verrrrry cheap and mine I got free in offers 3rd time I bought it, I also had an issue with the file so the girl replaced it in 30 mins there is one website more but i don't remember its name it was 2 years back bitman something link this Try these out brother

have your wheel bearings checked and service your tie rod ends and ball joints.

Have you checked to make sure the security system hasn't tripped? These cars are very touchy when it comes to that. Also make sure your signal wire to the starter was hooked back up.

I take help from online websites like reliable-store that have this service like helping in repair some like reliable-store have instant help.. others are a bit slow which I don't prefer... rest is up to u.. U can also get free manuals
