Nikolai_V Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 Evening / Morning all. Just quickly - I`d disconected the battery on my Disco to charge it, without realising it would set off the SRS light. I took it to a local independant landy guy (I`m in New Zealand btw), who has a Hawkeye scantool. I left it with him to reset the SRS light, but got a call 20 mins later saying that there was no plug for him to connect to, and to save money I should find it myself (He`d spent 15 mins looking for it). I can`t find the damn thing either. What I did find is wierd. My truck is a 1994 Tdi, with twin airbags, but no ABS. In the SRS loom (the yellow covered one), there is a blanked off 4-pin connector, with three actual pins inside it - it has a plug fitted to stop anything earthing it. Is this the diagnostic point for the SRS? I understand that the OBDII plug on 1995 and later discos is only for ABS and SRS - did they not bother with this for the earlier non-ABS vehicles? My truck is a NZ-spec one if that makes any difference (they didn`t get ABS as standard until later in the 1990s). I`d really appreciate any advice here - we`re stumped, and the SRS light is the only thing I need sorted for my Warrant of Fitness (our equivalent of your MOT). Thanks in advance, Nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrKev Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 Ok, so I've got a 96 disco, but I've disconnected an reconnected the battery countless times and not ever had a problem like you describe. If I remove the SRS fuse (F7 I think on mine - it's underneath a yellow cap) then the light will stay on. Are you sure you've not popped a fuse? My OBDII port is at the bottom left of the panel beneath the steering column (i.e. the fusebox cover) Hope this is of some help. Kev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like I need it hooked up to Testbook... more money Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niamh Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 Testbook, or there are other 3rd party products; we've used Rovacom lite from Black Box for many years. Niamh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
