    LR3 Brake controller install

    I do not have a fuse block in the back. And my P3 brake controller must fall asleep itself. When I press a button it wakes back up without turning on the ignition.

    LR3 Brake controller install

    Looking at the wiring diagram, and I don't see the fuse block listed. I also see that the power for the brake controller comes straight from the battery at the fuse you said. Will see if my brake controller is lit when I get out at lunch too.

    Fire extinguisher placement

    I have one mounted to the passenger side rear storage compartment door. It is readily grab-able with the third row seats up or down.

    LR3 Brake controller install

    My brake controller shuts off the same way the radio screen light does. That is, when the truck falls to sleep after 5-10 minutes.. I have a P3 brake controller plugged in using the Ford plug. I really like your setup though, as I can't really reach my controller well in the event that I...

    LR3 brake kit recombination?

    Agreed. One other issue is that they only read one side of each axle.. My rears started grinding on the opposite side of the wear sensor. That was when I ordered all the parts. The rears came in first, changed those out, broke the wear sensor, so I shorted it, thinking I would order two new...

    LR3 brake kit recombination?

    Yes, the difference between these Ceramic, and what was on it before is huge. I barely get any dust now, but with the old pads, I had to wash the wheels weekly, or they would turn black.

    LR3 brake kit recombination?

    2 years and 3 months and 34,339 miles ago, I replaced my rear brakes on my LR3 with Raybestos 980345 rotors and Wagner QC1099 brake pads. Then, 2 years and 1 month and 33,540 miles ago, I replaced the front brakes with Raybestos 980351 rotors and Wagner QC1098 pads. All are still working...

    2 things: LR3 Traction control weirdness and aux light question

    I don't believe the brake wear sensors have anything to do with anything. They are just a closed contact that opens when they detect brake wear. Unless you are talking about some other sensor.. I had a similar shimmy that has only happened once, while turning left when braking rather sharply...

    LR3 and led trailer lights

    My box trailer has LED's. They pulse all the time while running, and until the truck "shuts down" when parked.. I've just lived with it. Supposedly you can install resistors to get the truck to recognize the trailer. 150 ohm has been talked about.

    LR3 front brakes aftermarket choices

    I've mentioned before that I purchased Raybestos 980351 rotors and Wagner QC1098 Pads for the front, and Raybestos 980345 rotors and Wagner QC1099 pads for the back. Total cost for the parts was ~$270, got the parts from Amazon. I changed the rear 25k ago, and the fronts 24k ago. All look...

    NAS LR3 build with an overseas twist

    Here is how I added Bluetooth to my LR3 - http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009NLTW60?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00 It plugs into the aux input, and gives you control over your phone with the dongle.. I use it for music and navigation through the radio.

    Which Lr3 Sump Guard

    Except those of us who want access to our front recovery port besides removing and replacing the plastic (or leaving it off), and don't rock climb have no other alternative but to spend serious cash for something that is overkill.... I'm sure it does what it is supposed to, but it is too...

    Which Lr3 Sump Guard

    Wow, that is a bunch of money to replace that plastic piece.. I just want to be able to get to the tie down without breaking clips, like I did last winter when it was more than 10 below zero and I needed to lash a ladder to the roof. But for $500 I can buy a lot of clips. Or buy another...

    Need an Honest review of an Disco 3

    I've had my LR3 since Sept of 2012. When I bought it, the Land Rover dealer was sending it to auction as it had a bunch of things wrong that they didn't want to fix to sell to their "normal" customers. (they had taken it in on a trade from a new LR4). Anyways, I found the parts to fix the...

    LR3 285/60-18 versus 265/65-18 MPG

    That is good to hear, as this is the tire that I was thinking about purchasing. Had them on my Disco I and was pretty happy with them.

    LR3 285/60-18 versus 265/65-18 MPG

    Forgive me if this is a crazy question, but why not use the factory size of 255/60x18? What is gained by the wider tires? Tire selection? I'm probably going to be in the market for tires in the spring, as I had a tire with a broken Radial belt, so I had to switch to my full size spare, and...
