dash lights?

[03D2]

Alright so I'm driving my "03 DII and after hitting a patch of ice, the ABS goes into effect and now after that, the ABS (amber), emergency brake (red), hill descent control (green) and hill descent control failure (amber) are all lit up. I have turned off the engine let the truck sit for half an hour and started it back up but the lights are still there. What can I do to get this to go away?

Do a search for three amigos

thanks. I guess I will be paying a visit to the LR dealership this weekend. I hate new cars!

Sounds like a ground problem because thats what it was for me when that happened to me.

Hey Bwestone, can you tell me more about your ground issue. I have a 2000 DII also, and I have the same problem as 03D2. Thanks

Mine does the same thing. This is a known problem that your LR tech will have a fix for. There's a big expensive fix, but it enfuriated everyone, so now there's a cheaper fix. Mine's been doing it for a year now - I could care less. I just drive it. The lights come one a couple of times a week - they go away - the come back - life goes on. If I worried about all the idiot lights on my D2 I'd never see the end of it.

That isn't the "three amigos" that is typically referred to. The "three amigos" are the ABS, Hill Descent and Traction Control lights. 03D2 referred to his ABS, Emergency Brake and HDC lights. You probably have a different problem versus the three problems (right front wheel hub, abs shuttle valve, and ABS modulator) that cause the three amigos to appear. You're going to have to take it to a shop with the proper diagnostic equipment.

I dont know what the hell I was thinking before when I posted the lights :banghead: , it is actually the emergency brake light, HDC failure, TC, and ABS. So yeah, and my friend in the passenger seat freaked and pulled the emergency brake when it happened so once I hit dry ground the truck started a weird little skipping action. Sorry for the missinformation
