Check your battery voltage first,I bet its low try putting it on charge see if fault goes away

Filter and fluid change July 2019 @ 56800 I think it's only a clitch some where, I'd just like to find how to cancel the warning message and triangle. |

New battery fitted in February. Thank you for the possibility that's it's a computer type glitch. |

My Haldex pump screen was found to be approx 50% blocked after getting that message. Pump and haldex removed, new main filter and oil changed and not seen the messsge since.

I would still put the meter on the battery make sure its 12.8 ish, also you may need another earth strap, Freelanders like plenty of current |

If you think its haldex related it might be worth giving Austen a ring at Belle Engineering he the daddy on Haldex, he knows exactly what hes doing and highly praised on this forum

If the fault has not cleared with a battery reset then there should be fault codes stored that need read with a code reader which will help pinpoint what the problem is. Good luck! |

My MY2013 has just started flashing up the same message from time to time. (more on than off now!!) I have had this before and sorted it out with a new battery. Current battery is about 18 months old and measures 12.85v so I don't think that is the problem now
