CORROSION PREVENTION AND SEALING
77-4-6 CORROSION PREVENTION
Corrosion prevention
Factory treatments
During production, vehicle bodies are treated with the following anti-corrosion materials:
lA PVC-based underbody sealer which is sprayed onto the underside of the main floor, rear floor, front and rear
wheelarches and the front valance assembly;
lAn application of cavity wax which is sprayed into the sill panels, 'A' post, 'B-C' post, fuel filler aperture, body rear
panel and the lower areas of the door panels;
lA coating of underbody wax which is applied to the entire underbody inboard of the sill vertical flanges, and
covers all moving and flexible components EXCEPT for wheels, tyres, brakes and exhaust;
lA coat of protective wax applied to the engine bay area.
Whenever body repairs are carried out, ensure the anti-corrosion materials in the affected area are repaired or
renewed as necessary using the approved materials.

+ BODY SEALING MATERIALS, MATERIALS AND APPLICATIONS, Approved materials.
Precautions during body repairs and handling
Take care when handling the vehicle in the workshop. Underbody sealers, seam sealers, underbody wax and body
panels may be damaged if the vehicle is carelessly lifted.

+ LIFTING AND TOWING, LIFTING.
Proprietary anti-corrosion treatments
The application of proprietary anti-corrosion treatments, in addition to the factory-applied treatment, could invalidate
the Corrosion Warranty and should be discouraged. This does not apply to Rover approved, compatible, preservative
waxes which may be applied on top of existing coatings.
Fitting approved accessories
When fitting accessories ensure that the vehicle's corrosion protection is not affected, either by breaking the protective
coating or by introducing a moisture trap.
Do not screw self-tapping screws directly into body panels. Fit suitable plastic inserts to the panel beforehand. Always
ensure that the edges of holes drilled into panels, chassis members and other body parts are protected with a suitable
zinc rich or acid etch primer, and follow with a protective wax coating brushed onto the surrounding area.
Do not attach painted metal surfaces of any accessory directly to the vehicle's bodywork unless suitably protected.
Where metal faces are bolted together always interpose a suitable interface material such as weldable zinc rich
primer, extruded strip, or zinc tape.
Steam cleaning and dewaxing
Due to the high temperatures generated by steam cleaning equipment, there is a risk that certain trim components
could be damaged and some adhesives and corrosion prevention materials softened or liquified.
Adjust the equipment so that the nozzle temperature does not exceed 90
° C (194° F). Take care not to allow the steam
jet to dwell on one area, and keep the nozzle at least 300 mm (11.811 in) from panel surfaces.
DO NOT remove wax or lacquer from underbody or underbonnet areas during repairs. Should it be necessary to
steam clean these areas, apply a new coating of wax or underbody protection as soon as possible.
Inspections during maintenance servicing
It is a requirement of the Corrosion Warranty that the vehicle body is checked for corrosion by an authorised Land
Rover Dealer at least once a year, to ensure that the factory-applied protection remains effective.
Service Job Sheets include the following operations to check bodywork for corrosion:
lWith the vehicle on a lift, carry out visual check of underbody sealer for damage;
lWith the vehicle lowered, inspect exterior paintwork for damage and body panels for corrosion.
It will be necessary for the vehicle to be washed by the Dealer prior to inspection of bodywork if the customer has
offered the vehicle in a dirty condition.

CORROSION PREVENTION AND SEALING
CORROSION PREVENTION 77-4-7
The checks described above are intended to be visual only. It is not intended that the operator should remove trim
panels, finishers, rubbing strips or sound-deadening materials when checking the vehicle for corrosion and paint
damage.
With the vehicle on a lift, and using an inspection or spot lamp, visually check for the following:
lCorrosion damage and damaged paintwork, condition of underbody sealer on front and rear lower panels, sills
and wheel arches;
lDamage to underbody sealer. Corrosion in areas adjacent to suspension mountings and fuel tank fixings.
NOTE: The presence of small blisters in the underbody sealer is acceptable, providing they do not expose bare metal.
Pay special attention to signs of damage caused to panels or corrosion protection material by incorrect jack
positioning.
WARNING: It is essential to follow the correct jacking and lifting procedures.
With the vehicle lowered, visually check for evidence of damage and corrosion on all visible painted areas, in
particular the following:
lFront edge of bonnet;
lVisible flanges in engine compartment;
lLower body and door panels.
Rectify any bodywork damage or evidence of corrosion found during inspection as soon as is practicable, both to
minimise the extent of the damage and to ensure the long term effectiveness of the factory-applied corrosion
prevention treatment. Where the cost of rectification work is the owner's responsibility, the Dealer must advise the
owner and endorse the relevant documentation accordingly.
Where corrosion has become evident and is emanating from beneath a removable component (e.g. trim panel,
window glass, seat etc.), remove the component as required to permit effective rectification.
Underbody protection repairs
Whenever body repairs are carried out, ensure that full sealing and corrosion protection treatments are reinstated.
This applies both to the damaged areas and also to areas where protection has been indirectly impaired, as a result
either of accident damage or repair operations.
Remove corrosion protection from the damaged area before straightening or panel beating. This applies in particular
to panels coated with wax, PVC underbody sealer, sound deadening pads etc.
WARNING: DO NOT use oxy-acetylene gas equipment to remove corrosion prevention materials. Large
volumes of fumes and gases are liberated by these materials when they burn.
NOTE: Equipment for the removal of tough anti-corrosion sealers offers varying degrees of speed and effectiveness.
The compressed air-operated scraper (NOT an air chisel) offers a relatively quiet mechanical method using an
extremely rapid reciprocating action. Move the operating end of the tool along the work surface to remove the material.
The most common method of removal is by means of a hot air blower with integral scraper.
Another tool, and one of the most efficient methods, is the rapid-cutting 'hot knife'. This tool uses a wide blade and is
quick and versatile, able to be used easily in profiled sections where access is otherwise difficult.
Use the following procedure when repairing underbody coatings:
1Remove existing underbody coatings
2After panel repair, clean the affected area with a solvent wipe, and treat bare metal with an etch phosphate
material
3Re-prime the affected area
CAUTION: DO NOT, under any circumstances, apply underbody sealer directly to bare metal surfaces.
4Replace all heat-fusible plugs which have been disturbed. Where such plugs are not available use rubber
grommets of equivalent size, ensuring that they are embedded in sealer
5Mask off all mounting faces from which mechanical components, hoses and pipe clips, have been removed.
Underbody sealer must be applied before such components are refitted
6Brush sealer into all exposed seams
7Spray the affected area with an approved service underbody sealer
8Remove masking from component mounting faces, and touch-in where necessary. Allow adequate drying time
before applying underbody wax

CORROSION PREVENTION AND SEALING
77-4-8 CORROSION PREVENTION
After refitting mechanical components, including hoses and pipes and other fixtures, mask off the brake discs and
apply a coat of approved underbody wax.
NOTE: Where repairs include the application of finish paint coats in the areas requiring underbody wax, carry out paint
operations before applying wax.
Cavity wax injection
Areas treated with cavity wax are shown in the previous figures. After repairs, always re-treat these areas with an
approved cavity wax. In addition, treat all interior surfaces which have been disturbed during repairs whether they
have been treated in production or not. This includes all box members, cavities and door interiors. It is permissible to
drill extra holes for access where necessary, provided these are not positioned in load-bearing members. Ensure that
such holes are treated with a suitable zinc rich primer, brushed with wax and then sealed with a rubber grommet.
Before wax injection, ensure that the cavity to be treated is free from any contamination or foreign matter. Where
necessary, clear out any debris using compressed air.
Ensure that cavity wax is applied AFTER the final paint process and BEFORE refitting any trim components.
During application, ensure that the wax covers all flange and seam areas and that it is adequately applied to all
repaired areas of both new and existing panels.
It should be noted that new panel assemblies and complete body shells are supplied without wax injection treatment.
Ensure that such treatment is carried out after repairs.
Effective cavity wax protection is vital. Always observe the following points:
lComplete all paint refinish operations before wax application;
lClean body panel areas and blow-clean cavities if necessary, before treatment;
lMaintain a temperature of 18
° C (64° F) during application and drying;
lCheck the spray pattern of injection equipment;
lMask off all areas not to be wax coated and which could be contaminated by wax overspray;
lRemove body fixings, such as seat belt retractors, if contamination is at all likely;
lMove door glasses to fully closed position before treating door interiors;
lTreat body areas normally covered by trim before refitting items;
lCheck that body and door drain holes are clear after the protective wax has dried;
lKeep all equipment clean, especially wax injection nozzles.
Underbody wax
The underbody wax must be reinstated following all repairs affecting floor panels. The wax is applied over paints and
underbody sealers.
Remove old underbody wax completely from a zone extending at least 200 mm (7.874 in) beyond the area where new
underbody sealer is to be applied.
Engine bay wax
Reinstate all protective engine bay wax disturbed during repairs using an approved material.
Where repairs have involved replacement of engine bay panels, treat the entire engine compartment including all
components, clips and other fixtures with an approved underbonnet lacquer or wax.

HEATING AND VENTILATION
80-8DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Control panel
The controls for heating and ventilation are installed on a control panel in the centre of the fascia, below the radio.
Three rotary knobs control the LH and RH outlet temperatures and distribution. A slider switch controls blower speed.
A latching pushswitch controls the selection of fresh/recirculated air; an amber LED in the switch illuminates when
recirculated air is selected.
Graphics on the panel and the controls indicate the function and operating positions of the controls.
Outlet vent
The outlet vent promotes the free flow of heating and ventilation air through the cabin. The outlet vent is installed in
the RH rear quarter body panel and vents cabin air into the sheltered area between the rear quarter body panel and
the outer body side panel. The vent consists of a grille covered by soft rubber flaps and is effectively a non-return
valve. The flap opens and closes automatically depending on the differential between cabin and outside air pressures.
FBH system (diesel models only)
The FBH system is an auxiliary heating system that compensates for the relatively low coolant temperatures inherent
in the diesel engine. At low ambient temperatures, the FBH system heats the coolant supply to the heater assembly,
and maintains it within the temperature range required for good in-car heating performance. Operation is fully
automatic, with no intervention required by the driver.
The system consists of an air temperature sensor, a FBH fuel pump and a FBH unit. Fuel for the FBH system is taken
from the fuel tank, through a line attached to the fuel tank's fuel pump, and supplied via the FBH fuel pump to the FBH
unit. The connection on the fuel tank's fuel pump incorporates a tube which extends down into the tank. At the FBH
unit connection, the fuel line incorporates a self-sealing, quick disconnect coupling. In the FBH unit, the fuel delivered
by the FBH fuel pump is burned and the resultant heat output is used to heat the coolant. An ECU integrated into the
FBH unit controls the operation of the system at one of two heat output levels, 2.5 kW at part load and 5 kW at full load
Ambient temperature sensor
The ambient temperature sensor controls a power supply from the alternator to the FBH unit. The sensor is installed
on the RH support strut of the bonnet closing panel and contains a temperature sensitive switch that is closed at
temperatures below 5
°C (41 °F) and open at temperatures of 5 °C (41 °F) and above.

WIPERS AND WASHERS
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 84-13
Front screen washer jets
Two washer jets for the front windscreen are fitted to the top surface of the bonnet and held in place with plastic clips.
Each washer jet is connected via a hose to an in-line valve. The in-line valve prevents the washer fluid draining back
to the reservoir and ensures that the washers operate immediately the washer pump is operated. From each in-line
valve the washers are connected via a short hose to a 'T' connector. From the 'T' connector a single hose connects
to the outlet of the front washer pump. Each jet has two jets which can be adjusted to allow full fluid coverage of the
windscreen.
Rear screen washer jet
A single washer jet for the tail door window is fitted to the rear wiper blade. The jet has four spray orifices which direct
washer fluid to either side and along the length of the wiper blade. The jet is connected by a hose from the wiper blade,
through a sealing grommet in the tail door and connects with the rear washer hose from the rear washer pump. A non-
return valve is used to join the feed hose from the pump to the washer jet hose. The non-return valve prevents fluid
draining to the reservoir and ensures that the washer operates immediately the washer pump is operated. The hose
from the pump to the tail door is located inside the main harness.
Headlamp power washer jets
When fitted, a powerwash jet for each headlamp is located in a housing on the top surface of the front bumper. The
jets are fed with fluid at high pressure from the powerwash pump. A large diameter hose connects each jet to the
pump. Each connection is secured with a metal clip to secure the hose due to the high pressure from the pump. Each
jet directs the high pressure fluid in a wide spray onto the headlamp lens.
Rear washer switch
The rear washer switch is a non-latching pushbutton switch and is located on the RH side of the instrument pack.
Activating the rear washer switch provides battery voltage from fuse 30 in the passenger compartment fusebox to the
rear washer pump.

BODY CONTROL UNIT
86-3-2 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Power supply
Battery supply to the BCU and the IDM is provided through a 10 A fuse located in the engine compartment fuse box.
The BCU unit receives an ignition switched power supply (ignition switch position II) input via a 10 A fuse in the
passenger compartment fuse box.
The BCU receives a signal when the ignition switch is turned to the crank position, it then supplies an earth path to
the starter relay coil, to enable the crank operation by supplying power through the starter relay contacts to the starter
motor.
Battery voltage is monitored and BCU operation will function normally between 8 and 18 volts. Between 5.7 and 8
volts the BCU is in the 'under volts' state. The status of the battery is used to determine which outputs may be driven.
If a voltage supply above 18 volts is experienced, outputs will not normally be driven except for those functions which
are required during cranking (robust immobilisation, antenna coil, crank enable relay and feed to gear position switch
contacts W, X, Y, Z). In the over voltage state the vehicle can be driven, but all other functions are disabled and
outputs are switched off (power windows, heated screen, direction indicators etc.).
All functions are disabled on power up until communications between the BCU and IDM have been established. If
communications cannot be established, operation will commence with degraded functionality.
Battery supply to the IDM is provided through the inertia switch and a 10 A fuse in the engine compartment fuse box.
If the inertia switch contacts are closed battery voltage is available at the IDM; if the inertia switch contacts are open
there is no battery supply to the IDM. The supply condition of the IDM is signalled to the BCU via the serial bus. If the
inertia switch is operated (contacts open) the change in state is detected by the BCU which unlocks the doors if the
ignition switch is in position II and the alarm is not set.
The BCU is earthed through a hard-wire connection.
Inputs and outputs
The BCU and IDM process inputs and provide the necessary outputs for control and operation of the vehicle's 'body'
systems.
BCU inputs
The BCU processes signals received from the following components:
lDoor latch switches.
lDriver's door key lock/ unlock switches.
lBonnet activated security system.
lVolumetric sensors.
lCentral Door Locking (CDL) switches.
lRemote transmitter (via receiver unit).
lInertia fuel cut-off switch.
lIgnition switch.
lFuel flap release switch.
The input voltages (V
in) for BCU digital signals are defined as follows:
lLogic 1 when V
in ≥ 6V.
lLogic 0 when V
in ≤ 2V.
BCU input voltages between 2 and 6 volts are indeterminate and cannot be guaranteed.
Analogue input voltages are measured as a ratio with respect to battery voltage.
