Adaptive headlight symbol on dash!
Any help please, two symbols have appeared on my dash, one is suspension fault & the other is adaptive headlight symbol. I assume the suspension fault is a sensor as I checked the 4x4 info screen & the near side front is showing lower on the screen with a red light!! The adaptive headlight problem I thought may be a fuse but this seems ok. When I turn the lights on they still do the funny dance & my cornering lights come on with the indicators so all is ok there just no movement when cornering!! Seems a coincident that both warning lights came on together??. Pic of dash in my album. Sorry to waffle on but tried to explain as best I could. D3 HSE Zermatt Silver

Possible steering angle sensor fault is likely to be causing your Adaptive Front Lighting System (AFS) fault light as well
Quote:
AFS Failure Mode
In the event of a failure of the AFS system, a warning indicator in the IC is illuminated to warn the driver. The AFS warning indicator illuminates when the ignition is in accessory power mode 4 or ignition power mode 6 and will flash continuously until the fault is rectified. The AFS warning indicator will also be illuminated if a failure of the steering angle sensor or the vehicle speed signal is detected.
Illumination of the AFS warning indicator does not necessarily mean that there is a fault with the AFS system. The fault may be caused by a failure of another system preventing the AFS system operating correctly.
The AFS control module performs a diagnostic routine every time AFS is requested. If any fault is found, the AFS control module will suspend the operation of the AFS function.
If the AFS system has failed with the xenon projector module in a position other than the correct straight ahead position, the AFS control module will attempt to drive the xenon projector module to the zero (straight ahead) position. If this is not possible, the AFS control module will lower the projector module using the leveling actuator motors to prevent excess glare to oncoming vehicles.
The AFS control module software can detect an internal failure of the control module control circuits. The control module will power the projector modules to the zero position and prevent further operation.
Faults can be investigated by interrogating the AFS control module using an approved Land Rover diagnostic system to check for fault codes.

We had the same - it was a height sensor. Car lost ability to get itself level and so the adaptive headlights can't level themselves - therefore you get both warning lights.
Fix the dodgy height sensor and both errors will go away!08 Plate Disco 3 HSE TDV6 Auto

Hi my disco 3 57 Reg is showing the same 2 faults. The fault is the n/s rear and I can hear the pump when the engine is on. The suspension is working but the pump stays on? I can't find any leaks yet. Could the height sensor have failed causing the lights and suspension fault? I'm in England
Cheers for any help guys
