BODY CONTROL UNIT
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 86-3-15
Electric seats
The BCU controls the logical operation of the electrically operated front seats. Two modes of operation are available:

+ SEATS, DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION, Description - electric seats.
lElectric seat adjustment is enabled if the ignition is on or the driver's door is opened for a short time period.
lElectric seat adjustment is enabled if the ignition is on and the driver's door is closed.
The seats are operated by four electric motors which control the seat cushion rear up/ down, the seat cushion front
up/ down, seat cushion forward/ rearward and seat squab recline. The electrically powered lumbar adjustment in each
seat is operated by a single motorised air pump and a solenoid located on the seat squab frame. The air pump inflates
a cushion in the seat squab and the solenoid operates a valve to deflate the cushion. The seat squab and cushion
may also contain heater elements to provide heated seat operation.
The switches for electrically operated seats are located either side of the centre console.
Direction indicators and hazard warning lamps
The direction indicator lamps are operated from a three position direction indicator switch on the left hand, steering
column stalk. The BCU only allows the lamps to work as direction indicators when the ignition switch is in position II.
The BCU also controls the lamps to operate as hazard warning lamps and as a visual warning for the anti-theft system,
in which cases all lamps flash simultaneously irrespective of the ignition switch position.
System control of the direction indicators and hazard warning lamps is provided by the BCU operating with the IDM
and two electronic relays located in the passenger compartment fuse box. The IDM and relays are integral parts of
the passenger compartment fuse box and cannot be serviced individually. The serial data bus is used for
communication of status and operation requests between the BCU, IDM and instrument pack.
The hazard warning lamps are operated from a latching pushbutton switch located on the fascia.
All direction indicator/ hazard warning lamp bulbs are rated at 5 Watts.
Headlamps
The BCU contains a feature which allow the vehicle headlamps to be turned on when the remote transmitter is
pressed (courtesy headlamps).
For markets with daylight running lamps, the BCU controls the logical operation of the daylight running lamps. Options
are daylight running lamps are on if the main beam headlamps are off, or the daylight running lamps are on with main
and dipped beam off and the gearbox not in Park.
Front fog lamps
For markets with front fog lamps fitted, the BCU controls the operation of the front fog lamps. Options can be selected
so that the fog lamps will operate with or without the headlamps on main beam.
Instrument pack
The BCU communicates with the instrument pack via a serial data bus.

+ INSTRUMENTS, DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION, Description.
lThe instrument pack provides the BCU and IDM with details of vehicle speed.
lSignals are provided from the IDM to the instrument pack and BCU when the direction indicator lamps are active.
lFor certain markets, the BCU provides a signal to the instrument pack for indicating when the transfer box is in
neutral.
lThe IDM can signal the instrument pack to illuminate a trailer warning lamp. This operates when the IDM senses
that the current drawn by the indicator circuit exceeds a preset threshold.
lThe odometer reading displayed on the instrument pack LCD screen is also stored in non volatile memory in the
BCU. Whenever the ignition is turned from position I to position II, the instrument pack and the BCU compare
their stored values.
lThe gear selector position is displayed on the instrument pack LCD screen under the direction of the BCU.
Starting
The starting system comprises a starter motor and solenoid located at the rear right hand side of the engine. A starter
relay controlled by the BCU is used to supply battery power for starter solenoid operation. The starter motor receives
its feed directly from the battery.

Operation
DVD Player Functionality
The following defines the functionality of the unit. Further details of system operation can found in the DVD System
Owner's Manual, Publication Part No. LRL0482, supplied with the system.
DVD Region Selection
The DVD player is capable of playing discs from any region. The DVD can only be set to play discs of one region at
a time. A code is entered using the remote control handset to set the unit to the required region. The unit is set to the
correct region on production and therefore this will not be required by either the dealer or the customer.
If the unit region is required to be changed for any reason, Land Rover Special Vehicles must be contacted for the
required code and procedure.
NOTE: The unit can be re-configured for region up to five times. After the fifth attempt to re-configure the region, the
unit will be locked in the fifth region that was programmed. This will require the unit to be returned to the manufacturer
to be reset. The manufacturer will charge a fee for this service.
DVD Player CD Audio Function
The DVD player can play audio CD's through the vehicle audio system. This allows the user to play additional CD's
without having to remove the CD autochanger cartridge.
The overhead console LCD monitor must be open to play audio CD's.. Normal audio CD functionality such as repeat,
random and track select etc. can be accessed using the remote control handset.
The DVD player in the overhead console will also function independently of the vehicle audio system, and operate as
an additional CD player. The rear seat passengers can listen to audio CD's via the three headphone sockets on the
overhead console and via the two radio/headphone amplifier units (if fitted), while the front seat passengers
simultaneously listen to CD's played on the vehicle audio system and CD autochanger.
DVD/CD Output using the Vehicle Audio System
To play the DVD/CD audio output from the overhead console through the vehicle audio speakers, the speaker button
on the overhead console or remote control handset must be pressed. 'Speaker On' appears on the LCD monitor and
the head unit CD functionality is suspended. The audio output from the overhead console will now be played from the
vehicle speaker system. The head unit volume control, tone control, Navigation announcements and mobile phone (if
fitted) will function as normal and override the DVD output. A second press of the speaker button will switch the audio
output back to the head unit. 'Speaker Off' will be displayed on the LCD monitor.
The overhead console will remember the selected speaker condition if the overhead console is switched off by closing
the monitor, the console switched off using the handset or accessory power removed from the overhead console.
Power Up Conditions
On application of accessory power, the overhead console will perform the following:
lIf no disc is in the DVD player, the LCD monitor will display a blue screen and enter 'AUX' input mode.
When a DVD or CD is inserted in the DVD player, the system will change to DVD input mode. The disc will
attempt to play but may be limited by the disc media. Some discs will play automatically, some will display a menu
and others require the user to start playback.
lIf a disc was in the DVD player and the system was in 'Play', 'Pause', 'FF' or 'Rew' when powered down, playback
will start when power is re-applied.
lIf a disc was in the DVD player and the system was in 'Stop' when powered down, the system will enter DVD
mode and a blue screen will be displayed on the LCD monitor.
lSpeaker selection will remain in the same state as when the accessory power was removed.
Engine Cranking
If the unit is playing a DVD or CD when the ignition switch is moved to position III (engine crank), the system will stop
playing while the engine is cranking. Playback will resume at the point the playback was stopped when the ignition
switch is returned to position I or II.
