  Risk and remedy

  Risk

  If the srs warning light IS ignored and a vehicle crash of sufficient severity to command deployment of the driver's air bag occurs, the air bag module may not deploy in the intended manner. The condition may result in the deployment of only one stage of the dual stage driver's air bag or the air bag may not deploy at all increasing the risk of serious injuries to the driver.

  Remedy

  Dealers will insert 1MM spacers between the lower left hand side of the column switch mounting point and the column lock to improve the alignment of the column switch. two foam pads will also be fitted to the top of the steering column switch gear to provide assured clearance between the cowl and the clockspring face. the recall began on july 30, 2008. owners may contact land rover at 1-800-637-6837.

This allows the bms to see the current going into the battery. However when using a diagnostic charger from midtronics such as GR1, grx gr8(110 volts)this connection process can cause an incorrect battery analysis due to the extra resistance in the wiring when connected to a chassis or engine earth."
