Some think it is down to RF interference and some think it's a low battery voltage thing. The jury is still out on what exactly causes this well known problem. I guess adding an extra 50 quid into the bill and knowing that your customer has a workable solution that any idiot can use is much better than an angry, left in the lurch with a recovery fee one blaming them for having thought they fixed it. This also happens with our kicker lites where they have a P38 owner with a repetative and problematic EAS that is uneconomical or otherwise proving impossible to permanently fix. This is borne out by the fact that we now have almost 2 dozen indies who buy these from us at ten a time to get the maximum 22.5% bulk buy discount and then supply them as part of the fix cost to their customers. But i have absolutely no doubt that he is simply buying time for the customer. My mate ended up fitting the logic board from the old BeCM he had kept with the power board from the supposedly newer replacement for this customer. I had heard similar IrishRover, and that does make sense, but then you hear a lot that you don't actually like to state as catagorically correct. I can only guess we must be doing something right But do you know how many people have bought one and then wrote to tell us it did not sort their problem? To date we have had only one returned due to a construction error. I told him it was likely to happen again and sure enough, less than a month later it left the customer most unhappy on a supermarket car park and arguing with my mate as to who woud pick up the recovery bill.Īs i explained by PM to you, we have now supplied several hundred of these and have by popular request just now also introduced a GEMS version. After kicking himself for panicing and not thinking to check this himself, He told me he had used his Rovacom to change the BeCM on that very car less than 6 months back for another problem.

In a panic he called me and i talked him through checking the immobilser code with his Rovacom, sure enough it was wrong and a quick change to the right value had the car going. In fact LR seem to have a bury their head in the sand approach and you could well end up with a BeCM that was replaced due to this very problem.Ī few months back a mate of mine who runs a garage serviced a DSE, after parking it up after the service the customer came to pick it up and it would not start.

It seems that even replacing the BeCM is only a temporay fix as LR now often supply refurbished ones which does not include replacing the microcontroller that houses the problematic EEPROM block. While i understand the lend / hire one principle, and i know you would expect me to say this, but it's really a bad idea unless you are planning to sell the car, as once this starts to happen on a P38, it is almost certainly going to happen again and again and almost always at the most unfortunate and in opportune moment. You can get one direct from our own web shop, where you would have to factor in the 10% established forum member discount for Landy Zone members, our Ebay shop, or there are now many other vendors on ebay etc you can go to.Īs with anything, you need to shop around for the best deal you can get, but in any event you should be glad that there is now such a low cost solution availiable at all, and better still one you can keep on hand in the glove box.
