DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION VEHICLE IMMOBILISATION AND ALARM SYSTEM
A sophisticated engine immobilisation and anti-theft
alarm system is offered on the Land Rover Defender
300 Tdi vehicle range, which incorporates the
following features:
Perimeter protection
This part of the alarm system protects side doors,
bonnet and rear door against unauthorised entry -
alarm sounding if any one of these apertures is
opened without alarm first being disarmed.
Interior protection
Also known as volumetric protection, this part of the
system protects space inside the vehicle. Once
armed, the alarm will sound if a door is opened, or if
movement is detected inside the vehicle.
Engine immobilisation
The engine is immobilised electronically whenever the
alarm system is armed. Even if the alarm has not
been armed, engine immobilisation will occur
automatically thirty seconds after the driver's door is
opened, or five minutes after the starter switch is
turned to position '0'.
ALARM SYSTEM COMPONENTS
Electronic control unit (ECU)
The ECU is the alarm system brain and controls all
vehicle immobilisation and alarm functions. It
responds to the inputs received, by supplying suitable
outputs to indicate status of the alarm system or
activating relevant warning devices. unit is located
under fascia behind instrument binnacle.
Handset and key
The handset is the primary source of control for the
alarm system i.e. it arms and disarms the alarm
components. The key can be used to override engine
immoblisation if the handset is lost or fails to operate,
seeEngine immobilisation override.The handset battery should last for approximately
three years dependent upon use. The following
symptoms will be noticed when the battery requires
replacement:
1.The handset will only work every other operation
while disarming.
2.The direction indicator lamps will not flash when
the alarm is disarmed.
For battery replacement procedure, seeHandset
Battery.
Passive coil
The passive coil is fitted on the starter switch and
activates a receiving coil in the handset, causing it to
automatically transmit a remobilisation signal to the
ECU.
Aerial
The aerial is integral within the alarm system harness
and supplies the ECU with the signal received from
handset.
Immobilisation spider
The immobilisation spider provides an interface
between ECU and immobilised areas of the vehicle.
This is installed in a sealed (safe) box inside the
vehicle battery box.
Digital diesel shut-off valve - 97 MY
When fitted, the digital diesel shut-off valve
immobilises the fuel injection pump by preventing
power reaching the fuel shut-off solenoid,

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION REV: 05/99 ALARM SYSTEM OPERATION
Arming alarm
To arm the alarm, aim handset at vehicle and press
the RH button (Padlock symbol). Provided all doors
and or apertures are closed, the direction indicator
lamps will flash three times to confirm that the alarm is
armed. All security features previously described will
be active.
Once armed, the alarm will sound if a door or the
bonnet is opened, or if movement is detected inside
the vehicle.
Disarming alarm
Within range of the vehicle, briefly press the LH
(Plain) button on the handset; the direction indicator
lamps will flash once to indicate that the alarm has
been disarmed and the engine re-mobilised.
NOTE: In some territories, the interior
lamps will illuminate when the alarm is
disarmed.
If the direction indicators fail to flash when the
alarm is armed:
This indicates that a door or the bonnet is not fully
closed, in which case the alarm will be partially armed
and engine immobilised, but interior protection will not
be active.
Once the open door or bonnet is closed, the direction
indicators will flash three times and the alarm will fully
arm as described previously.
If the alarm sounds:
The vehicle horn and alarm sounder will operate
continuously for 30 seconds when the alarm is
triggered. The horn and alarm sounder can be
triggered up to three times.
To silence the alarm, press either handset button. If
the handset is inoperative, the alarm can only be
disarmed by entering the emergency key access
code, seeEngine immobilisation override.Anti-theft alarm indicator light
A RED indicator light on the instrument panel
indicates the status of the alarm system. When the
alarm is armed successfully, the light flashes rapidly.
After 10 seconds, the light adjusts to a slower
frequency and continues flashing as an anti-theft
deterrent.
If the light fails to illuminate during the rapid flash
phase, this indicates a 'mislock' (door or the bonnet
not fully closed or key in starter switch). If this occurs,
the indicator light will still flash at slower frequency as
an anti-theft deterrent.
The indicator light will illuminate continuously under
the following conditions:
1.Alarm system armed and immobilised with
ignition 'on' or driver's door open.
2.Engine immobilised with ignition 'on' or driver's
door open.
Interior protection
Interior protection is activated automatically when the
alarm system is armed; twin sensors inside the
vehicle monitor interior space and will activate the
alarm if an intrusion is detected.
However, if passengers or animals are to be left inside
the vehicle, or if a window or sunroof is to be left
open, the alarm must be armed with the interior
protection DISABLED as follows:
To disable interior protection:
1.Open the driver's door.
2.Use the handset to arm the alarm in normal way.
3.Close the driver's door (the direction indicator
lamps will flash three times and the anti-theft
indicator light commences flashing rapidly). The
alarm system is now armed with the interior
protection disabled.
NOTE: Interior protection will not operate
until 15 seconds after the alarm is set.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION REV: 05/99 ENGINE IMMOBILISATION
Engine immobilisation is an important aspect of the
vehicle's security system, and occurs automatically
whenever the alarm system is armed.
The system also includes a feature known as 'passive
immobilisation', which is designed to safeguard the
vehicle from theft should the driver forget to arm the
alarm.
Passive immobilisation occurs automatically as
follows:
·Thirty seconds after the starter switch has been
turned off and the driver's door opened.
·Five minutes after the starter switch is turned off or
the alarm system is disarmed.
If the engine has immobilised passively,
re-mobilisation will occur when the starter switch is
turned to position 'II', provided the handset is on the
same ring as key and in close proximity to the switch.
ALWAYS keep the handset on the same ring as the
key.
NEVER attach both handsets to the same key ring.
Any attempt to start the engine while it is immobilised
will cause the engine immobilisation warning light to
flash.
Engine immobilisation override
If the handset is lost or fails to operate, the engine
immobilisation can be overridden by using the starter
key to enter the four digit emergency access code.
The procedure for entering the code is described after
the following note:
NOTE: If the handset is lost or inoperative,
it is impossible to disarm the alarm. As
soon as the door is opened, the alarm will
sound (continuously for up to three 30 second
periods), and continue while the code is being
entered.
1.With the driver's door closed, insert the key into
the starter switch.
2.Turn the switch to position 'II' the required
number of times to enter first digit of code (if first
digit is 4, turn key to position 'II' and then back to
'0' four times.
3.Open the driver's door (to enter first digit) and
then close the door again.
4.Turn the starter switch to position 'II' and back to
'0' the required number of times to enter
SECOND digit of code.
5.Open the driver's door (to enter second digit)
and then close the door again.
6.Turn the starter switch to position 'II' and back to
'0' the required number of times to enter THIRD
digit of code.
7.Open the driver's door (to enter third digit) and
then close door again.
8.Turn the starter switch to position 'II' and back to
'0' the required number of times to enter
FOURTH digit of code.
9.Finally, open and close the driver's door. If the
code has been entered correctly, the anti-theft
indicator light will extinguish, the engine can be
started and the alarm will disarm.
If an incorrect code has been entered:
If the code is entered incorrectly, the anti-theft
indicator light will continue to illuminate and the
engine will fail to start. Before entering the code again,
turn the starter switch to position 'II', hold in this
position for 5 seconds and then switch off.
After three failed attempts, the security system
invokes a delay period of thirty minutes during which
the system will not accept any further codes.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION VEHICLE ALARM SYSTEM BUILT-IN TEST
NOTE: The handset should be detached
from the key to allow perimetric testing of
the alarm system. The system will
automatically switch to volumetric testing if the
handset is in close proximity to the starter switch.
The built-in test procedure can be accessed providing
the following conditions exist:
Alarm disarmed.
Ignition 'off'.
Doors unlocked.
Bonnet closed.
With assistance, the test mode can be entered by
completing the following instructions within 5 seconds:
1.Open bonnet.
2.Turn starter switch 'on'.
3.Open driver's door (far enough to activate door
switch).
4.Turn starter switch 'off'.
5.Turn starter switch 'on'.
If the test mode has been correctly accessed, the
alarm sounder/horn will operate briefly and the
anti-theft alarm indicator and direction indicator lamps
will flash.
Perimetric tests
The anti-theft alarm indicator light and direction
indicator lamps will flash when:
1.Door switches are activated.
2.The bonnet is opened.
3.Key switches are activated.Volumetric tests
Press the LH (unlock) button or move the handset
close to the starter switch to disable perimetric testing
and enable volumetric testing. If movement is
detected within the vehicle by the ultrasonic sensor
the anti-theft alarm indicator and direction indicator
lamps will illuminate.
NOTE: Exit the anti-theft alarm built-in test
by turning the starter switch to the 'off'
position.
If the previously described conditions are not achieved
during the built-in test procedure, this would indicate a
fault in the alarm system. Before undertaking detailed
fault diagnosis procedures, first make visual checks of
components such as a faulty door switch or blown
alarm system fuse.
