Land Rover Defender
Here’s our List of services, upgrades and products for your Defender
Repairs, Upgrades & Services
All Defender up to Model Year around 2014, are equipped with a green Box called Lucas 10AS Immobilizer. Later this was replaced by a black Box called CH12 or DH12 ALM. Both can cause significant trouble at the wrong time because of various reasons.
Because spares aren’t available from Land Rover Dealers since many years, the offered replacement of the whole Immobilizer system costs a fortune.
Luckily we can offer an alternative for a fraction of that cost, providing lifetime warranty!
Also we can help with ECU problems. We can check and repair your TD5 MSB or NNN Unit, backup, copy or replace your Software tunes, and many more!
Lucas 10AS
The famous Lucas 10AS is a robust device – in principle.
However, over the years, also this device suffers from defects:
The Keyfobs have a limited liftime. Not only the Batteries, but also the Buttons, PCB and Oscillator suffer.
Defects in your central locking cabling can cause to 10AS PCB to burn. In all cases we’ve been able to rescue the immobilizer Data.
Most customers demand maximum reliability and ask for our bullet proof Bypass Module. With this you will EVER be able starting your car and drive it, even your Keyfobs get lost or destroyed. We are not re-programming your 10AS like others do, because we find this not reliable.
CH12 & DH12
When the µProcessor from the 10AS became obsolete, the CH12 and DH12 was developed as a 1:1 replacement.
Unfortunately, it is suffering from a catastrophic desing fault which erases parts of its own memory, when getting undervoltage. When this happens, the unit is severely damaged. You can’t disarm the Car anymore, Central Locking doesn’t work are some symptoms of a dead ALM. Sometimes its causing even more trouble like burning all motors of the central locking.
Land Rover cannot fix your ALM, but we can! We restore the original functionality and install our Bypass Module to nsure that your Immobilizer will not let you down again.
ECU Services
Over the years, we were able to test & rescue a large number of Defender ECUs. Primarily the Td5 MSB & NNN Type ECUs are suffering from defect Injector Drivers or other problems.
We can also offer to backup or replace the Software / Firmware of your NNN Type Td5 ECUs.
Also we can clone your existing ECU data to another spare unit or match a new ECU to your existing Immobilizer.
We can also modify your ECU to work without an Immobilizer. By this your ECU could be swapped between several vehicles without adapting it to the Immobilizer.
