Blind Spot Monitoring System Operation

The purpose of the blind spot monitoring system is to detect an object moving with a positive velocity relative to the radar
module, on either side of the vehicle, at a distance of up to 2.5 meters laterally and in an area from the door mirror up to 7.0
meters behind the module. These criteria identify an overtaking vehicle within the blind-spot area and within a typical
carriageway lane width, while eliminating other objects that are not relevant, either because of their position, they are
stationary, traveling in the opposite direction, or being overtaken. A vehicle is classed as a heavy goods vehicle, car or
motorcycle. A motorcycle is defined as a minimum size of 2.0m long, 0.8m wide (widest point) and 1.1m high. The system is
not affected by the mass of the overtaking vehicle providing all identification criteria, including relative velocity of (16km/h -
10mph) or above, is met.

The system emits radar pulses and analyses the reflections, identifying anything that moves into the blind spot zone. Having
detected another vehicle in the defined blind spot zone it alerts the driver by illuminating the amber alert icon located in the
appropriate exterior mirror.


NOTE: If an overtaking vehicle is detected on both sides of the vehicle simultaneously, the warning alert icons in both
mirrors will illuminate.

The light lens is shaped so as to minimize the visibility to other drivers. The LED (light emitting diode)’s are located towards
the outside extremity of the mirror face, within the peripheral view of the driver but not in any area of the mirror where they
could obscure or distract from the image.



Item Description 1 Warning alert icon 2 System status warning indicator The LED lighting sequence is as follows;
Amber alert LED icon permanently lit - system operational, vehicle detected in blind spot area No LED’s lit – system active no vehicle detected in blind spot area Amber status LED permanently lit - system not active or faulty
The system has operating limitations and is automatically turned off under certain operating conditions. During these
operating conditions the amber status LED is permanently lit. The system operating limitations are as follows;

The area surrounding the radar face of the module must be clear of metallic items
The system is inactive until vehicle speed is greater than 16km/h - 10mph (amber status LED permanently lit) The system is inactive if an approved trailer is connected to the vehicle (amber status LED permanently lit) The system is inactive when reverse gear or park is selected (amber status LED permanently lit)
If either of the radar signals are blocked or distorted, for example by water, the radar face of the module is covered in mud,
sleet or snow the system may detect this and be disabled with the amber status LED permanently lit together with a ‘blind spot monitoring blocked’ message displayed in the instrument cluster message center. The system is disabled until the
blockage is cleared.

If there is a fault in the system the amber status LED is permanently lit and a ‘blind spot monitoring not available’ message displayed in the instrument cluster message center. The system is disabled until the fault is rectified.
System fault and blockage warnings are as follows;

PARKING AID System Operation

Two levels of parking aid system can be fitted; a rear only system or a front and rear system.
The parking aid module receives and ignition power mode 6 supply from the RJB. The parking aid module is connected to the entertainment system control module by the medium speed CAN (controller area
network) bus and the Media Orientated System Transport (MOST). The entertainment system is used by the parking aid system
to provide the driver with an audible warning. If an obstacle is sensed by the rear parking aid sensors, the rear audio system
speakers will sound. If an obstacle is sensed by the front parking aid sensors (if fitted), the front audio system speakers will
sound.

The parking aid system operates using ultrasonic signals which are transmitted by the sensors. The reflected echo from this
output is received by the sensors and used by the parking aid module to calculate the distance from an object.

When the parking aid module activates the system, the switch LED (light emitting diode) is illuminated to indicate that the
system is operating. The parking aid module then processes signals received from the sensors to determine if there is an
object with the detection range of the sensors. A parking aid screen is automatically displayed in the Touch Screen Display. If
the vehicle has a parking aid camera fitted, the camera display is automatically displayed in the TSD in preference to the
parking aid alert display. To view the parking aid sensor display, a single touch of the TSD screen will remove the camera
image display and show the parking aid alert display.
Parking Aid Alert Display



A visual interpretation of the detection areas is given in the TSD.

The visual interpretation dynamically updates as the sensors detect an objets within the set parameters. This feature can also
be used as a diagnostic aid.

In the combined mode, the sensors emit a series of ultrasonic impulses and then switch to receiver mode to receive the echo
reflected by an obstacle within the detection range. The received echo signals are amplified and converted from an analogue

CAUTION: Diagnosis by substitution from a donor vehicle is NOT acceptable. Substitution of control modules does not
guarantee confirmation of a fault, and may also cause additional faults in the vehicle being tested and/or the donor vehicle.
NOTES:


If the control module is suspect and the vehicle remains under manufacturer warranty, refer to the Warranty Policy and
Procedures manual (section B1.2), or determine if any prior approval programme is in operation, prior to the installation of a
new module.


Generic scan tools may not read the codes listed, or may read only five digit codes. Match the five digits from the scan
tool to the first five digits of the seven digit code listed to identify the fault (the last two digits give additional information
read by the manufacturer approved diagnostic system).


When performing voltage or resistance tests, always use a digital multimeter (DMM) accurate to three decimal places,
and with an up-to-date calibration certificate. When testing resistance always take the resistance of the DMM leads into
account.


Check and rectify basic faults before beginning diagnostic routines involving pinpoint tests.


Inspect connectors for signs of water ingress, and pins for damage and/or corrosion.


If DTCs are recorded and, after performing the pinpoint tests, a fault is not present, an intermittent concern may be the
cause. Always check for loose connections and corroded terminals. Parking aid system functioning correctly

NOTE: Under no circumstances should the battery be disconnected with the engine running because under these
conditions the generator can give a very high output voltage. This high transient voltage will damage the electronic
components in the vehicle. Loose or incomplete battery connections may also cause high transient voltage.
3. HEALTH AND SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

WARNINGS:


BATTERY CELLS CONTAIN SULPHURIC ACID AND EXPLOSIVE MIXTURES OF HYDROGEN AND OXYGEN GASES. IT IS
THEREFORE ESSENTIAL THAT THE FOLLOWING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS ARE OBSERVED.


Batteries emit highly explosive hydrogen at all times, particularly during charging. To prevent any potential form of
ignition occurring when working in the vicinity of a battery:
Do not smoke when working near batteries.
Avoid sparks, short circuits or other sources of ignition in the battery vicinity.
Switch off current before making or breaking electrical connections.
Ensure battery charging area is well ventilated.
Ensure the charger is switched off when: a) connecting to a battery; b) disconnecting from the battery.
Always disconnect the ground cable from the battery terminal first and reconnect it last.


Batteries contain poisonous and highly corrosive acid. To prevent personal injury, or damage to clothing or the vehicle,
the following working practices should be followed when topping up, checking electrolyte specific gravity, removal, refitting or
carrying batteries:
Always wear suitable protective clothing (an apron or similar), safety glasses, a face mask and suitable gloves.
If acid is spilled or splashed onto clothing or the body, it must be neutralized immediately and then rinsed with clean
water. A solution of baking soda or household ammonia and water may be used as a neutralizer.
In the event of contact with the skin, drench the affected area with water. In the case of contact with the eyes, bathe
the affected area with cool clean water for approximately 15 minutes and seek urgent medical attention.
If battery acid is spilled or splashed on any surface of a vehicle, it should be neutralized and rinsed with clean water.
Heat is generated when acid is mixed with water. If it becomes necessary to prepare electrolyte of a desired specific
gravity, SLOWLY pour the concentrated acid into water (not water into acid), adding small amounts of acid while
stirring. Allow the electrolyte to cool if noticeable heat develops. With the exception of lead or lead-lined containers,
always use non-metallic receptacles or funnels. Do not store acid in excessively warm locations or in direct sunlight.


Due to their hazardous contents, the disposal of batteries is strictly controlled. When a battery is scrapped, ensure it is
disposed of safely, complying with local environmental regulations. If in doubt, contact your local authority for advice on
disposal facilities.

Battery and Charging System - General Information - Quiescent Drain
Description and Operation

VEHICLE QUIESCENT CURRENT TESTING

On vehicles fitted with a Battery Monitoring System (BMS), the diagnostic routine for quiescent drain testing in the approved
Jaguar or Land Rover diagnostic system should be utilized.

If a customer complains of a vehicle battery that discharges continuously or when left for a prolonged period of time, it is
recommended that a quiescent drain test is performed as described below.

The battery drain should be measured using the approved Jaguar or Land Rover diagnostic system or a Digital Multi-Meter
(DVOM). A procedure for quiescent drain measurement using the diagnostic system is available in the Diagnosis and Testing
section of the Workshop Manual. The vehicle should be in the locked/armed state (for example vehicle alarm fully armed), all
doors, engine and luggage compartment lids are open and latched (so as to appear closed from an electrical point of view).
The test should take place after the vehicle has entered shutdown mode. The time taken for this to occur after the ignition is
switched off varies according to model (Refer to the Topix On line resource for details).

When the vehicle is armed, the effect of the security system Light Emitting Diode (LED) flashing is to cause a pulsation in the
measured current drain. In this case, either the average current should be taken (using a Digital Multi- Meter (DVOM) with an
averaging system) or the current reading taken, ignoring the brief high current peaks.
EQUIPMENT
Approved Jaguar or Land Rover diagnostic system with current probeOR Digital Multi-Meter (DVOM) with current probe.

METHOD OF MEASUREMENT

Using an Approved Jaguar or Land Rover Diagnostic System.
1. Switch off all electrical loads and ensure that the ignition is off
2. Connect the current probe to the approved Jaguar or Land Rover diagnostic system
3. Calibrate the probe
4. Install a clamp around the battery lead/junction box lead
5. Go to the Quiescent Current Testing section in this procedure

Using a digital multimeter

Do not use an in-line DVOM to measure the quiescent drain on vehicles fitted with an electronic throttle (for example XK 2006
onwards). The current exceeds the maximum amount the fuse in the DVOM is capable of handling.
1. Switch off all electrical loads and ensure that the ignition is off
2. Connect the current probe to the digital multmeter
3. Calibrate the probe
4. Install a clamp around the battery lead/junction box lead
5. Go to the Quiescent Current Testing section in this procedure

QUIESCENT CURRENT TESTING

1. Switch ignition to ‘on’ or select ignition mode in keyless vehicles and switch to ‘off’ (do not crank)
2. Remove key from ignition switch (if equipped)
3. Open and latch all doors, hood and luggage compartment lid
4. Lock the vehicle using the remote function on the remote handset. (Single lock only to avoid volumetric alarm arming)
5. Remove any other potential electrical drains such as accessories plugged into accessory sockets
6. Record the amperage readings after the shutdown period referenced in the Topix on line resource for details. Note all
cars from 10MY onwards and XK from 07MY and XF from 08MY should be less than 30mA after 30 minutes
7. Record the final reading on the battery report form

The preferred method of testing following an excessive current consumption figure is to use a current probe around individual
junction box leads to the various suspected circuits to identify a potential cause. This is in preference to the old method of
removing fuses for the following reasons:

The drain may be caused by a module remaining active and preventing the quiescent drain from reducing to normal
levels
The drain may be caused by a relay winding that is activated. Pulling the fuse can allow this to ‘reset’ and the drain will
be lost and go un-diagnosed

QUIESCENT DRAIN - TYPICAL VALUES


NOTE: The quiescent drain after the initial shutdown period should not exceed the value shown in the table.
