TRANSFER BOX - LT230SE
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 41-15
High/low detect switch
A high/low detect switch is fitted in the front output housing and connects to earth when low is selected. The switch is
connected to the engine ECM, the SLABS ECU and the EAT ECU. The purpose of the switch is to enable selection
of the hill descent feature and to modify the engine fuelling and automatic gearbox gearshift maps stored within the
respective ECM's and ECU's.
Differential lock - Fitted to certain vehicles only
The differential lock selector housing is bolted to the top of the front output housing, the selector finger passes through
the housing, locating in a slot in the differential lock selector shaft. The differential lock selector shaft passes through
the selector fork which is located beneath a plate bolted to the side of the output housing. The selector fork engages
the dog clutch sleeve with the differential rear shaft when the splines of the sleeve and differential rear shaft are
aligned. A spring loaded detent ball fitted in the output housing locates in grooves in the shaft.
Functionality – Vehicles up to 03 model year only
The function of the differential lock used in previous applications is performed on this vehicle by the Electronic Traction
Control System. However, for the purposes of 2 wheel rolling road testing , the differential lock components are
retained. For all driving conditions however, the differential lock must be set in the unlocked position.
Up to 03 model year specification shown
The differential lock must only be engaged for 2 wheel rolling road testing as engagement of the lock disables the
traction control feature and inhibits correct operation of the electronic brake distribution and hill descent features. It
will also be necessary to disconnect the propeller shaft from the transfer box output shaft driving the axle whose
wheels are NOT on the rolling road. The lock may be engaged/disengaged by using a 10 mm open ended spanner
on the flats (arrowed) machined on the differential lock selector shaft.
Vehicles not fitted with a differential lock may be identified by there being no cover or selector shaft (arrowed) on the
front output housing.
WARNING: VEHICLES NOT FITTED WITH A DIFFERENTIAL LOCK MUST NOT BE TESTED ON A ROLLING
ROAD WHERE THE ROLLERS ARE DRIVEN BY THE VEHICLE.

BRAKES
70-6 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
For all control functions, the ABS modulator regulates the hydraulic pressure to the brakes to control the speed of all
four wheels, either individually or in axle pairs. Operation of the ABS modulator is controlled by the Self Levelling and
Anti-lock Braking Systems (SLABS) ECU. The SLABS ECU also operates warning indications in the instrument pack
to provide the driver with status information on each function.
Brake servo assembly
The brake servo assembly provides power assistance to reduce the pedal load when braking. If the brake servo
assembly fails, the hydraulic system still functions but will require greater brake pedal effort due to the lack of vacuum
assistance.
Two integral tie bolts attach the brake servo assembly to the pedal and bracket assembly on the engine bulkhead.
The master cylinder assembly is attached to the forward ends of the tie bolts.
The brake servo assembly consists of a circular housing which contains two diaphragms, a central plate, a control
valve assembly, input and output push rods and a filter. The input push rod is connected to the brake pedal. The output
push rod locates in the primary piston of the master cylinder. A protective gaiter is installed on the control valve
assembly where it extends from the rear of the housing. A non return valve, installed in a port in the front face of the
housing, is connected to a vacuum line from the engine.
The control valve assembly consists of a valve body containing a valve, a piston, a valve spring and an input rod
spring. The valve controls a vacuum port in the valve body. The piston controls an air inlet port between the valve and
the piston. A reaction disc and a ratio disc separate the piston from the output push rod. A guide tube on the front of
the valve body is attached to the front diaphragm and supported in a bush in the central plate. A return spring locates
in the open end of the guide tube.
The two diaphragms and the central plate separate the interior of the housing into four sealed chambers. The
chambers at the front of the diaphragms are connected together through fixed passages in the valve assembly. The
chambers at the rear of the diaphragms are connected together through the interior of minor diaphragms on the tie
bolts.
Brakes off
With the brake pedal released, the piston in the control valve assembly positions the valve so that the vacuum port is
open and the two pairs of chambers are connected together. When the engine is running air is evacuated through the
vacuum line and non return valve, creating a partial vacuum in all four chambers. When the engine stops, the non
return valve closes to maintain the partial vacuum and, on V8 models, prevent fuel vapour entering the brake servo.
