Access mode on Air Suspension

Hi all

New to forum and new Discovery 3 owner.

Cannot select access mode. In pushing switch it appears to do nothing. Can raise to offroad height no problem but will not go down from here or from standard height?

if left in offroad height it will go back down to standard height when speed increases.

Am I doing something silly wrong?

acces height only works below 8 km/hr or so. So did you try it standing still? Roel

Probably a faulty switch.

Same thing happened to me.
I can lift the Disco from access to normal or from normal to off-road height but cannot get the Disco to drop.
When using the key fob I can drop to Normal or access height..... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=STt7DmJeeVc

Yeo like Gareth said if there are no other suspension faults and it goes up but not down the mosly likely suspect is the switch.

I had the same - would go up but not down, a new switch sorted it - £100 or so I recall
