Answer
Your 1995 Land Rover has several different diagnostic plugs, each of which connects to a different cable on Autologic or T4 testers.

Those testers can test engine, airbag (SRS) and antilock brakes (ABS).  You may also be able to test security (some vehicles)

There is not much you can do at home with reading these signals.  If your dealer can't establish a connection with his tester that may mean a bad control unit, a wiring problem, or a power problem.

As a rule, at our company, we solve wiring problems. We never replace harnesses.  Other dealers have different levels of skill and may act differently.

Good luck!
