Xenon Disco 4

Hi,

I know this has probably been discussed many times but I can't find the info I need despite lots of searches and a few hours of reading various threads.

I have a Disco 4 commercial. I also have some xenon headlights with LEDs that I have fitted but do not work. They did work for a short time and then one or the other works intermittently. I have removed them and fitted standard halogen headlights without LEDs.

Land Rover are no help whatsoever, they say the xenon's will not work due to their high power demand and the canbus system.

I guess I need a techie type chap with the knowledge and ability to reprogram the canbus system to accept the new xenon head units.

Does anybody know such a chap anywhere in Hampshire?

Much appreciated,
Dave

By who?
Can't find anything specific on line.
Would prefer to use someone who's done it successfully before...

Quite a few people on here can do it. Try messaging Geoff.

Or you can have a go yourself with a diagnostic tool. I have a nanocom which I had for my disco3 but I haven't as yet bought the license for my 4. You need to read up on them fully though.

Thanks Will.
How do I contact Geoff?
It's not something I'd attempt myself, for fear of cocking it up!

Most of the Sponsors can do it, the CCF needs editing to allow the Xenons to work, Geoff. or Woody32 can do it for you as they're the nearest unless you travel around ?
