ABS LAND ROVER DISCOVERY 2002 Repair Manual

TRANSFER BOX - LT230SE
41-16 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
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. Vehicles not fitted with a differential lock can be
identified by a high/low range selector lever with no differential lock functionality and the cover and selector shaft
(arrowed), not visible 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.
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 - if fitted - Vehicles from 03 model year
Vehicles from 03 model year are fitted with two differential lock warning lamp switches.
One switch is of a new design and is fitted into the top of the front output housing in the same position as on previous
models. The switch is connected to the SLABS ECU and is operated by movement of the selector fork and shaft.
The second switch is located in a threaded hole on the forward face of the front output housing. The switch is also
connected to the SLABS ECU and is 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 – if fitted
The differential lock warning lamp is located in the instrument pack and provides a visual warning to the driver, when
the ignition is on, the differential lock is engaged. The warning lamp illuminates in an amber colour.
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.

AUTOMATIC GEARBOX - ZF4HP22 - 24
44-12 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Reverse gear
Clutches (5), (8) and (11) are engaged. The front planet gear carrier of gear set (9) is locked. Gear set (10) also rotates
as a solid block.
Gear position switch
The gear position switch outputs signals that are related to the position of the selector lever assembly. The switch is
installed on the selector shaft on the left side of the gearbox. Slotted mounting holes allow the switch to be turned
relative to the shaft for adjustment. A fly lead connects the switch to the vehicle wiring.
Movement of the selector lever assembly turns the selector shaft, which operates six pairs of contacts in the switch.
The pairs of contacts are identified as the W, X, Y, Z, Park/Neutral and Reverse contacts. When closed:
lThe W, X, Y and Z contacts output a 12V ignition supply from the BCU.
lThe Park/Neutral contacts output an earth.
lThe Reverse contacts output a 12V ignition supply from the passenger compartment fuse box.
The outputs of the W, X, Y and Z contacts are monitored by the EAT ECU and the BCU to determine the position of
the selector lever assembly.
Gear position switch W, X, Y, Z outputs
The Park/Neutral contacts output to the BCU and, on diesel models, the ECM. The Reverse contacts output to the
BCU, the reversing lamps, the SLABS ECU and, where fitted, the ACE ECU and the electrochromic interior mirror.

securing screw.
The outer race of the hub bearing is bolted to the end of the axle casing. An 'O' ring seals the joint between the outer
race and the axle casing to prevent leakage of differential lubricating oil. The hub bearing is a sealed unit which
contains twin opposed roller bearings, pre-packed with grease during manufacture. A toothed ABS sensor ring is
integrated into the inner race of the hub bearing. An opening in the outer race of the hub bearing accommodates the
ABS sensor.
