2007 Freelander 2 TD4 HSE Auto Tambora Flame

Autobox Selector Light

Not sure of the best way describe the issue .

When you select drive / Reverse / Park etc on the Auto the Display to the side of the lever usually illuminates to show what gear you are in - It also shows on the dash.

The illumination on the other halfs FL2 suddenly stopped working - It still shows okay on the dash but as I am reminded frequently it should work and it doesn't.

I cannot see any reason for this - all fuses appear to be okay and nothing else has stopped working.

Any technical experts that can advise what to look at / check or is it into the dealer ( its a 2007 HSE) Disco 3 HSE

It has been one here before but I can't find the thred, but there has been a least one instance of the lamp holder falling out, they took off the trim around the selector and found it hanging

If you are just looking at removing trim around the auto gear selector; select neutral, position your fingers between the selector and the surrounding plastic (your fingers are pushing the soft liner/material down), grab the "lip" of the silver plastic trim and pull up. MY10 TD4 SE Auto

Finally got time yesterday to look at this - it was as you describe above - the small board with the LED's had fallen off = back o n within 2 mins

Thanks for the advice -
