Land Rover Discovery Ii owners have reported 2 problems related to traction control light on (under the traction control system category). The most recently reported issues are listed below.
Failure of abs system while driving. 3-4 times per week while city driving the abs/hill descent/traction control warning lights and chimes come on. The system typically resets after stopping and re-starting the vehicle (sometimes requires neutral start to reset). This is similar to a failure I had in a 1999 model that required over $3,000 in repairs to replace a failed abs pump. Land rover insists that there is no fault code left on the obc after these events, but all indications point to a systemic and on-going problem with the series of abs pumps used over the years. This seems to be an important safety system in the vehicle, but lr seems to have no interest in addressing it.

I recently bought a Land Rover discovery 2 (1999 model - 75,000 mi. ). My abs brake light, hill decent light, and traction control lights keep coming on intermittently. I have read hundreds of complaints on this issue online. Apparently the 3 items (abs, hill decent, and traction control) are all interconnected items - generally called three amigo problem online. The major concern is that the abs does not work and the brake pedal will sometimes go to the floor, brakes shutter and on occasion barely engage at all. I have almost wrecked the vehicle on a couple of occasions. I have no choice but to drive my car. I can't afford the $3500 the Land Rover dealer wants to fix this design flaw. I can't get rid of the vehicle because nobody wants to buy or trade for a car with all these warning lights on. Again, if you look online you will see that this is a Land Rover design flaw and that almost every one of theses vehicles is affected. Land rover claims it is from abuse or lack of maintaining this "wearable item. " if this was really the case, would thousands of people, with mileage ranging from new to hundreds of thousands of miles, have the same problem?.
