INTRODUCTION
How To Use This Manual
General
To assist in the use of this Manual, it is divided into
sections and sub-sections. The section title is given
at the top of each page and the relevant sub-section
is given at the bottom.
There is a single contents section at the front of the
Manual, which is divided by section and sub-section.
Each section is numbered from page 1.
The individual items comprising repair operations are
to be followed in the sequence in which they appear.
Item numbers shown in illustrations are referred to in
the associated text.
Adjustment, Repair and Overhaul operations include
reference to Service tool numbers and the
associated illustration depicts the tool in use.
Adjustment and repair operations also include
reference to wear limits, relevant data, torque
figures, specialist information and useful assembly
details. Each adjustment or repair operation is given
a Service Repair Operation (SRO) number.
WARNINGS, CAUTIONS and NOTES have the
following meanings:
WARNING: Procedures which must be followed
precisely to avoid the possibility of injury.
CAUTION: Calls attention to procedures which
must be followed to avoid damage to
components.
NOTE: Gives helpful information.
References
References to the LH or RH side given in this Manual
are made when viewing the vehicle from the rear.
With the engine and gearbox assembly removed, the
crankshaft pulley end of the engine is referred to as
the front.
Operations covered in this Manual do not include
reference to testing the vehicle after repair. It is
essential that work is inspected and tested after
completion and if necessary a road test of the vehicle
is carried out. This is of particular importance where
safety related items are concerned.
Dimensions
The dimensions quoted are to design engineering
specification. Service limits are included where
applicable.Electrical Reference Library (ERL) and Circuit
Diagrams
The Electrical Reference Library (ERL) and Circuit
Diagrams are separate publications intended for use
by trained Land Rover technicians and should be
referred to when attempting to diagnose electrically
related concerns.
The ERL contains descriptions of how the circuits
operate, fuse details, earth point locations, and a
definitive guide to the attributes and location of every
connector on the vehicle.
The ERL is used in conjunction with the Circuit
Diagrams. Both publications are designed to support
all aspects of electrical fault diagnosis.
TESTBOOK (Fault Diagnostic Equipment)
Freelander is equipped with a number of electronic
control systems to provide optimum performance of
the vehicle's systems.
Diagnostic equipment (TESTBOOK/T4) is available
to assist with the fault diagnostic abilities of the
dealer workshop. In particular, the equipment can be
used to interrogate the Engine Control Module
(ECM) for diagnosis of emissions related faults which
may become evident by the illumination of the
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) in the instrument
pack. This feature is included in compliance with the
latest emissions legislation pertinent to a particular
market (e.g. EU3 for Europe, OBDII for North
America etc.).
This repair manual is produced as a reference
source to supplement Testbook/T4. When available,
the equipment should be used as the primary means
of fault diagnosis on electronically controlled
systems.
Features of TestbookT4 include:
lFully upgradable support for the technician
lStructured diagnostics to accommodate all skill
levels.
lTouch screen operation - Testbook only.
lDirect print out of screen information and test
results.

WARNING: Many liquids and other substances
used in motor vehicles are poisonous and should
under no circumstances be consumed and
should, as far as possible, be kept from contact
with the skin. These liquids and substances
include acid, anti-freeze, asbestos, brake fluid,
fuel, windscreen washer additives, lubricants,
refrigerants and various adhesives.
Always read carefully the instructions printed on
labels or stamped on components and obey them
implicitly. Such instructions are included for
reasons of your health and personal safety.
Never disregard them.
WARNING: Many of the fluids used in motor
vehicles, such as coolant, brake fluid and power
steering fluid, are inflammable. Take care not to
spill fluids when topping-up, a fire may result. If
spillage does occur, ensure the area is
thoroughly cleaned before starting the engine.
Synthetic rubber
Many 'O' rings, seals, hoses, flexible pipes and other
similar items which appear to be natural rubber, are
in fact, made of synthetic materials called
Fluoroelastomers.
Under normal operating conditions this material is
safe and does not present a health hazard. However,
if the material is damaged by fire or excessive
heating, it can break down and produce highly
corrosive Hydrofluoric acid which can cause serious
burns on contact with skin.
If skin contact does occur:
lRemove any contaminated clothing
immediately.
lIrrigate effected area of skin with a copious
amount of cold water or limewater for 15 to 60
minutes.
lObtain medical assistance immediately.
Should any material be in a burnt or over-heated
condition, handle with extreme caution and wear
protective clothing (seamless industrial gloves,
protective apron etc.). Decontaminate and dispose of
gloves immediately after use.Lubricating oils
WARNING: Avoid excessive skin contact with used
engine oil. Used engine oil contains potentially
harmful contaminants which may cause skin cancer
or other serious skin disorders.
WARNING: Avoid excessive skin contact with
mineral oil. Mineral oils remove the natural fats from
the skin, leading to dryness, irritation and dermatitis.
Health protection precautions
The following precautions should be observed at all
times:
lAvoid prolonged and repeated contact with oils,
particularly used engine oils.
lWear protective clothing, including impervious
gloves where practicable.
lDo not put oily rags in pockets.
lAvoid contaminating clothes (particularly those
next to the skin) with oil.
lOveralls must be cleaned regularly. Discard
heavily soiled clothing and oil impregnated
footwear.
lFirst aid treatment should be obtained
immediately for open cuts and wounds.
lUse barrier creams: apply before each work
period to help prevent lubricating oil from
contaminating the skin.
lWash with soap and water to ensure all oil is
removed (propriety skin cleansers and nail
brushes will help).
lUse moisturisers after cleaning; preparations
containing lanolin help replace the skin's natural
oils which have been removed.
lDo not use petrol, kerosene, diesel fuel, gas, oil,
thinners or solvents for cleaning skin.
lIf skin disorders develop, obtain medical advice
without delay.
lWhere practicable, degrease components prior
to handling.
lWear eye protection (e.g. goggles or face
shield) if there is a risk of eye contamination.
Eye wash facilities should be provided in the
close vicinity of the work area.
