SOS system - limited functionality
reposted in right forum - couldn't figure out how to delete it. Apologies
Hi guys
I had a sudden battery failure a couple of months ago, resulting in the car completely dying (couldn't even unlock it - had to do so manually) and this happened with no prior warning. I managed to get a new battery fitted, and everything runs fine, but have been left with the above warning that comes on every time I turn the car on. Land Rover want to charge me £216 to run a diagnostics test (car is out of warranty) just to see what is wrong, and then charge on top to fix ther problem. Yet, I read on the interweb that the likely issue is a failed back up battery for the telemetry / incontrol system. The problem I have is finding out where this back up battery is (there may even be two of them). Does anybody have any info on this - cannot find details of it anywhere.
Thanks
Phil

I did resolve it - took it to a specialist LR service place (not main dealer ). They replaced the auxiliary battery and reset the system. I can’t remember the cost but it was better than the £250 LR wanted to just investigate the problem.
