If both the TLC (Traction Control) and brake warning lights are illuminated in a Land Rover Freelander, it may indicate a malfunction in the vehicle's braking system or traction control system. This could be due to low brake fluid levels, a faulty brake sensor, or an issue with the ABS system. It's essential to address these warning lights promptly, as they could compromise vehicle safety and performance. A diagnostic check is recommended to identify the specific problem.

To turn off the dash lights in a Land Rover Discovery, first ensure that the vehicle is in the "OFF" position. If the lights are still illuminated, check the vehicle's dashboard settings through the infotainment system, as some models allow you to adjust the brightness or turn off specific warning lights. If the dash lights are warning indicators, addressing the underlying issue is necessary before they can be turned off. If the problem persists, consult the owner's manual or a Land Rover technician for assistance.

My 1995 Land Rover Discovery was stuck in "Park" because the brake light switch was faulty. Ordinarily, you must step on the brake to shift out of Park. If you depress the brake pedal and your tail-lights do not light up, it's likely because the switch is broken. The switch is located near the hinge of the brake pedal; underneath the steering column. Your local auto parts store should have a replacement; I bought two at $10 each... and keep the spare in the glove box in case this happens again.
