Frequently asked questions

What does the Td5 fuel shut-off switch do?
The Td5 fuel shut-off switch is an inertia-operated safety switch wired into the fuel pump supply circuit. On a sudden impact it trips and cuts the electrical feed to the fuel pump, stopping fuel delivery. It's fitted to the Td5 diesel Land Rover Defender.
How do I reset the fuel cut-off switch after it trips?
Reset the switch by depressing the button on top once the cause has been cleared. If a Td5 Defender cranks but won't start after a knock, jolt or accident, the inertia switch may have tripped and cut the fuel pump feed. Pressing the button restores the circuit.
Is there a superseding part number for this switch?
Yes, MSK100050 is listed as an alternative reference for this Genuine Land Rover fuel shut-off switch. Both point to the same Td5 Defender inertia switch. If your records show either code, this part covers the application.
Which vehicles use this fuel shut-off switch?
This fuel shut-off switch fits the Land Rover Defender with the Td5 diesel engine, 1998-2006 only. It does not apply to the earlier 300Tdi or the later Puma Tdci Defender. Confirm your engine is the Td5 before ordering.
