TRANSFER BOX - LT230SE
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 41-13
Description
General
The LT 230SE transfer box is mounted at the rear of the gearbox and transmits drive via high or low reduction ratios
to the front and rear axles via the propeller shafts. The high/low ratios are 1.211:1 and 3.32:1 respectively.
Transfer boxes fitted to this model have the prefixes 41D and 42D to the unit serial number. Prefix 41D denotes that
the unit is not fitted with interlock whilst 42D denotes that interlock is fitted.
Vehicles up to 03 model year – Whilst similar to LT230Q transfer boxes fitted to other models, the LT230SE transfer
box has certain engineering modifications incorporated which are as follows:
lUprated torque capacity
lModified front and rear output and cross shaft housings
lIntermediate gear bearing pre-load now controlled by a selective, non-collapsible spacer
lSpeedometer drive and driven gears not fitted for this application
lModified high/low sleeve
lModified front output flange and mud shield
lDifferential lock fitted to certain vehicles, but no longer driver operated
lFixed setting of differential lock warning lamp switch on vehicles fitted with differential lock
Vehicles from 03 model year – The LT230SE transfer box is as described above for vehicles up to 03 model year
with the following modifications:
The following items are introduced on vehicles from 03 model year
lRibs added to main casing to reduce operating noise
lRevised machining process for intermediate gears to reduce operating noise
lBearing retaining nut on the differential carrier has patchlock added to the threads
lInterlock solenoid moved from main casing to selector lever assembly
lIntermediate gears modified with machined internal shoulder and bearing circlips deleted
lDriver operated differential lock
lHigh/Low selector shaft fitted with spring assist
lExisting differential lock switch replaced by 2 new switches of improved design with the additional switch installed
adjacent to the existing switch location.
Construction
The transfer box comprises three main assemblies; the main casing, the front output housing and the rear output
housing. Both output housings and all cover plates are sealed to the main casing by sealant; mud and water ingress
being prevented by mud shields located on the output flanges.
Main casing
The main casing carries the mainshaft input gear, the intermediate gears and the differential, together with the high/
low range gears, selector shaft and fork. The front and rear output housings are bolted to either side of the main
casing.
Transmission neutral sensor
A transmission neutral sensor is fitted on automatic gearbox vehicles for North America and Japan. The sensor is
connected to the BCU and is normally in the open position. The sensor provides an earth path for the BCU which then
interprets the signal and activates an audible warning generated by the IDM if neutral is selected on the transfer box
when the ignition is on.
Transfer box interlock solenoid - Automatic gearbox vehicles
An interlock solenoid is fitted for North America and Japan. The solenoid is located on the top of the transfer box main
casing on vehicles up to 03 model year or on the selector lever assembly on vehicles from 03 model year. The
solenoid is connected to the transfer box relay which, in turn, is controlled by the IDM. The purpose of the solenoid is
to prevent neutral being selected on the transfer box when the ignition key is removed, thereby locking the box in
either high or low ratio.

TRANSFER BOX - LT230SE
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 41-15
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.
Functionality – Vehicles from 03 model year only
The differential lock must be engaged for 2 wheel rolling road testing. 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. In
addition, the ETC system must be deactivated by either, removing a fuse (10A fuse 28 in the passenger compartment
fusebox, labelled ABS) or disconnecting the ABS modulator pump. This must be done with the ignition switched off.
Note that the SLABS ECU may record a system fault.
The lock can be engaged or disengaged using the selector lever.
WARNING: VEHICLES NOT FITTED WITH A DIFFERENTIAL LOCK MUST NOT BE TESTED ON A ROLLING
ROAD WHERE THE ROLLERS ARE DRIVEN BY THE VEHICLE.

TRANSFER BOX - LT230SE
41-16 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Differential lock warning lamp switch - if fitted - Vehicles up to 03 model year
A differential lock warning lamp switch connected to the SLABS ECU and operated by movement of the selector fork
and shaft is screwed into the top of the output housing. The switch connects to earth when the differential lock is
engaged.
Differential lock warning lamp switches - Vehicles from 03 model year
Vehicles from 03 model year are fitted with two differential lock warning lamp switches.
Both switches are of a new design and are fitted into the top of the front output housing. The switches are connected
to the SLABS ECU and are operated by movement of the selector shaft.
Both switches have an aluminium washer which seals the switch to the casing and also sets the switch position,
removing the requirement for a setting procedure.
Both switches are connected in parallel to earth when the differential lock is engaged. This earth is sensed by the
SLABS ECU which illuminates the differential lock warning lamp in the instrument pack.
Differential lock warning lamp - Vehicles up to 03 model year – if fitted
The differential lock warning lamp is located in the instrument pack and provides a warning to the driver when the
ignition is switched on that the differential lock is engaged. The warning lamp illuminates in a Red colour.
With the lock engaged, the traction control and electronic brake distribution warning lamps will also be illuminated.
Disengagement of the differential lock should be carried out with the ignition switched off. The warning lamps must
be extinguished when the ignition is switched on again.
Differential lock warning lamp – vehicles from 03 model year
The differential lock warning lamp is amber coloured and is located in the instrument pack.
When the lock is engaged, the warning lamp is illuminated and the instrument pack sounder emits three audible
chimes. When the lock is disengaged, the warning lamp is extinguished and the instrument pack sounder emits three
audible chimes.
Rear output housing
The rear output housing carries the output shaft and flange. A cable operated transmission brake is attached to the
housing, the brake drum being attached to the output flange.
The rear output shaft is supported in the housing by a single bearing and is splined into the differential rear sun gear.
Lubrication
Lubrication is by splash, oil filler/level and drain plugs being located in the main casing.
Internal pressures caused by thermal expansion and contraction are avoided by the use of a plastic breather pipe
venting the interior of the box to atmosphere. The pipe is attached to the top of the high/low selector housing by a
banjo bolt and is then routed in a continuously rising path into the engine compartment where the open end is secured
by a clip attached to the engine cylinder block.
Oil temperature warning lamp switch
An oil temperature switch is fitted to V8 engine models up to 03 Model Year. In the event of the transfer box oil
approaching maximum recommended working temperature of 145°C (293°F), the switch will close and a warning
lamp in the instrument pack will be illuminated.
