Anybody seen my low ratio?

Disappeared a few days ago, no fault codes, just won't engage and no error warnings.

MY05, S

Switch perhaps?

I hope you don’t mind, but your description is rather basic with “disappeared” but do you follow the right procedures when engaging?

Select neutral when applying?

Rolling with laughter

So, I have a regular need to engage low ratio, and to use it, I follow the correct steps.

At present, the 'high ratio' is light, engine running, handbrake on, put car into natural, then, pull Swatch down towards 'low' and nothing happens, no switching to low and no warning noise or anything.

When I switch to 'mud ruts' it advises me to engage Low Ratio, but alas not able to do so.

Switch failure or fuse?

Again, faults read and nothing listed

And finally, I have checked down side of sofa but unfortunately no sign of it Big Cry

I've just had a very similar experience with my suspension. car wouldn't raise and no errors. I took of the switch / terrain response panel, really easy, unscrewed the plastic panel that reveals the PCB. Blast with airline and contact cleaner and it works as it should.
