WARNING INDICATORS

The warning indicators are located in various positions in the instrument cluster. The warning indicators can be split into two groups; self controlled and externally controlled.

Self controlled warning indicators are dependent on software logic within the instrument pack for activation. The pack software controls the indicator check illumination at ignition on and all indicators whose operation is controlled by the instrument cluster, the low fuel level warning indicator for example.

Externally controlled indicators are supplied with current from another system controlling module or illuminated by the instrument cluster on receipt of a bus message from another subsystem module.

Some indicators are activated by an external subsystem module but the instrument cluster contains the control logic. These indicators are shown in the following table as being both self and externally controlled.

The following table shows the available indicators and indicates if they are subject to an indicator check at ignition on and if they are self or externally controlled.

The functionality for each of the above warning indicators is described below. Some warning indicators are accompanied by a chime from the instrument pack when they are illuminated and also a message in the message center on high line instrument clusters. Some indicators are only available on the low line instrument cluster, with the indicators being replaced with messages on the high line instrument cluster.

1. Air Suspension Indicator

The air suspension indicator is illuminated by the instrument cluster software on receipt of a CAN signal from the air suspension control module. The air suspension control module outputs a number of different signals relating to the air suspension system operation. The instrument cluster interprets the signals and can illuminate the indicator in either an amber or red colour as appropriate. Some signals also include requests for chimes from the instrument cluster to alert the driver.

2. Transfer Box Low Range Indicator

The transfer box low range indicator is illuminated by the instrument cluster software on receipt of CAN signals from the transfer box control module. When a range change from high to low range is in progress, the low range indicator flashes in an green color. When the range change is complete, the low range indicator remains permanently illuminated until high range is selected.

The transfer box control module also requests a single chime from the instrument cluster to alert the driver that the requested range change is complete. On high line instrument clusters, the range change information is also displayed in the message center.

3. Hill Descent Control (HDC) Active Indicator

The HDC active indicator is illuminated by the instrument cluster software on receipt of CAN signals from the ABS module. The indicator is illuminated in a green color when HDC is active and the vehicle speed is below a predetermined threshold. If the vehicle speed is faster than the threshold limit, the HDC indicator will flash until the vehicle speed is reduced. On high line instrument clusters a supporting message will also be displayed in the message center.   Anti-Lock Control - Traction Control (206-09A Anti-Lock Control - Traction Control)


If the use of HDC causes the brake discs to exceed their pre-determined temperature, the HDC system initiates a 'fade out'. The HDC indicator flashes during 'fade out' and on high line instrument clusters a supporting message is displayed in the message center. When the brake discs have cooled sufficiently, HDC is reactivated and the HDC indicator is permanently illuminated.

4. Dynamic Stability Control (DSC)/Traction Control Indicator

The DSC/traction control indicator is illuminated by the instrument cluster software on receipt of CAN signals from the ABS module. The indicator is illuminated in an amber color for 3 seconds for a bulb check when the ignition is switched on. If no faults exist, the indicator is extinguished after the bulb check period.

When DSC is active, the indicator flashes to inform the driver that the system is regulating engine output and braking forces. If the indicator remains illuminated after the bulb check period or illuminates when driving, the DSC system has a fault or DSC has been deselected by the driver using the DSC switch on the fascia.

5. Ignition/No Charge Indicator

The ignition/no charge indicator is controlled by the instrument cluster software and illuminated by CAN signals from the Engine Control Module (ECM). The indicator illuminates in a red color when the ignition is moved to position II and is extinguished when the engine is started.

If the indicator remains illuminated after the engine has started or illuminates when driving, the alternator charge output has failed.

6. Low Oil Pressure Indicator

The low oil pressure indicator is hardwired directly to the instrument cluster. The indicator is illuminated in a red color when the ignition is moved to position II. When the engine is started and the oil pressure increases the low oil pressure indicator should extinguish. If the indicator remains illuminated or illuminates when driving the vehicle should be stopped at the earliest opportunity and the engine switched off until the fault is rectified.

7. Glow Plugs Active Indicator (Diesel models only)

The glow plugs active indicator is illuminated by the instrument cluster software on receipt of a CAN message from the Engine Control Module (ECM). The indicator is located in the same position as the MIL on petrol models. The indicator illuminates in an amber color when the ignition is moved to position II. The indicator illumination period varies with engine temperature and is some cases will not illuminate when the engine temperature is high. The indicator is controlled by CAN signals from the ECM which equate to the time which the glow plugs are energised to pre-heat the combustion chambers.   Glow Plug System (303-07C Glow Plug System)
When the glow plug heating time is complete, the indicator is extinguished indicating to the driver that the engine can now be started.

8. Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL)

The MIL is controlled by the instrument cluster software on receipt of CAN signals from the ECM. The indicator is illuminated for a bulb check by the ECM when the ignition is moved to position II. The lamp is extinguished when the engine starts.

If the MIL remains illuminated after the engine is started or illuminates while driving, a fault is present and must investigated at the earliest opportunity. Illumination of the MIL indicates that there is an On-Board Diagnostic (OBD) fault which will cause excessive emissions output. This may relate to either an engine management system fault or a transmission fault.

9. Supplementary Restraint System (SRS) Warning Indicator

The SRS warning indicator is controlled by the restraints control module which transmits CAN signals to the instrument cluster. The warning indicator is illuminated for 6 seconds for a bulb check by the restraints control module when the ignition is moved to position II. If a fault is detected in the SRS the restraints control module illuminates the warning indicator in a red color until the fault is rectified.

The instrument cluster also performs a check of the indicator LED functionality. Failure of the indicator LED is transmitted to the driver in the form of a '5R5' (SRS) message which is displayed in the trip meter display.

10 and 11. Left and Right Turn Indicators

The turn indicators are controlled by the instrument cluster software on receipt of CAN signals on the medium speed CAN bus from the Central Junction Box (CJB). When the turn signal indicator switch is operated, the CJB transmits a signal to the instrument cluster to operate the applicable turn indicator. The instrument cluster software controls the flash rate of the indicator which flashes in a green color. During normal turn signal indicator operation the indicator flashes slowly, accompanied simultaneously by a sound from the instrument cluster sounder. If a fault exists, the instrument cluster responds to a fault message from the CJB and flashes the indicator at double speed.

The hazard warning indicators are also controlled by the CJB and the instrument cluster software and operate in the same manner as the turn signal indicators. The hazard warning indicators can operate with the ignition switched off, therefore, the CAN signal from the CJB to the instrument cluster to operate the left and right hand turn signal indicators will also 'wake-up' the instrument cluster.

12. High Beam Indicator

The high beam indicator is controlled by the instrument cluster software on receipt of CAN signals on the medium speed CAN bus from the Central Junction Box (CJB). When the high beam switch is moved to the high beam or headlight flash position, the CJB transmits a CAN message to the instrument cluster to illuminate the high beam indicator in a blue color.

13. Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) Indicator

The Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) indicator is controlled by the instrument cluster software on receipt of CAN signals from the TPMS module. The indicator is illuminated in an amber color for a 3 second bulb check by the TPMS module when the ignition is moved to position II. If the indicator remains illuminated after the engine is started or illuminates when driving, the TPMS has developed a fault. The tyre pressures should be monitored manually until the fault is rectified.

14. Safety Belt Warning Indicator

The safety belt warning indicator is controlled by the restraints control module and the instrument cluster software on receipt of CAN signals from the restraints control module.

The indicator is illuminated in a red color when the ignition is moved to position II. The illumination will remain on until the safety belt buckle is latched in position. If the safety belt of an occupied front seat is not fastened, when the vehicle speed exceeds 8 km/h (5 mph) the indicator will flash and repetitive chime will emit for 10 seconds from the instrument cluster. This will be repeated every 30 seconds until the safety belt is fastened, the vehicle speed is reduced below 5 km/h (3 mph) or the ignition switch is moved to the off position.

On NAS vehicles, the indicator will remain permanently illuminated until the safety belt is fastened, the vehicle speed is reduced below 5 km/h (3 mph) or the ignition switch is moved to the off position.

15 and 38. Brake Warning Indicator

This indicator is controlled by CAN signals from the ABS module for Electronic Brake Assist (EBA) and Electronic Brake Distribution (EBD) faults. Brake pad wear or low brake fluid indications are controlled by the instrument cluster with the pad wear sensors and the fluid level sensor hard wired into the instrument cluster.

The indicator can be illuminated in an amber or red colour depending on the fault. The indicator is illuminated for a bulb check when the ignition is switched on. The indicator is illuminated in an amber colour for 1.5 seconds and red colour for a further 1.5 seconds. If no faults exist, the indicator is extinguished after the bulb check period.

The brake warning indicator functions are assigned priority. Fault conditions which require a red illumination have priority over amber illuminated faults.

Brake Pad Wear EBA/EBD Warning Low Brake Fluid 16. Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) Indicator

The ABS indicator is controlled by the ABS module which transmits a CAN signal to the instrument cluster. The indicator is illuminated in an amber color for 3 seconds for a bulb check by the ABS module when the ignition is moved to position II. If the indicator remains illuminated or illuminates when driving, an ABS fault has occurred an the ABS function will not be available.

During the bulb check, if the indicator comes on for 0.5 second, then goes off for 0.5 second and is then illuminated for the remaining 2 seconds of the bulb check, this indicates that faults are stored in the ABS module memory.

If the indicator was illuminated due to a sensor fault, the indicator will remain illuminated at the next ignition cycle, even if the fault is rectified. When the vehicle is driven above a speed of 20 km/h (12.5 mph) the indicator will be extinguished. This allows the ABS module to perform a thorough check of the system and to establish that the output from the replaced sensor is correct.

17. Cruise Control Indicator

The cruise control indicator is controlled by the ECM and the instrument cluster on receipt of CAN signals from the ECM. When the cruise control is selected on, the indicator is illuminated providing that cruise has been resumed and is not within 8 km/h (5 mph) of the set speed or cruise is on and the vehicle speed is within 8 km/h (5 mph).

18. Adaptive Front Lighting System (AFS) Indicator

The AFS indicator is controlled by the AFS control module and the instrument cluster software on receipt of CAN signals from the control module. The indicator is illuminated in an amber color for a 3 second bulb check when the ignition is moved to position II.

The AFS indicator displays AFS system failures to the driver. If a failure occurs, the indicator will illuminate continuously until the fault is rectified.

19 and 36. Park Brake Fault Indicator

The park brake fault indicator is controlled by the instrument cluster software on receipt of CAN signals from the Electronic Park Brake (EPB) control module. The indicator is illuminated in an amber color for 3 second for a bulb check when the ignition is moved to position II. If a fault occurs in the EPB system occurs, the EPB control module requests illumination of the indicator which remains illuminated until the fault is rectified.

20 and 37. Park Brake Warning Indicator

The park brake warning indicator is controlled by the instrument cluster software on receipt of CAN signals from the Electronic Park Brake (EPB) control module. The indicator is illuminated in a red color when the park brake is applied. If the ignition is moved to the off position, the indicator remains illuminated for 3 minutes. If a fault occurs which prevents park brake application the indicator flashes and the park brake fault indicator is also illuminated.

21. Front Fog Lamps Indicator

The front fog lamp indicator is controlled by the CJB which illuminates the indicator via a hardwired connection to the instrument cluster. The indicator is illuminated in a green color at all times when the front fog lamps are selected on and the ignition is in position II.

22. Rear Fog Lamps Indicator

The rear fog lamp indicator is controlled by the CJB which illuminates the indicator via a hardwired connection to the instrument cluster. The indicator is illuminated in an amber color at all times when the rear fog lamps are selected on and the ignition is in position II.

23. Trailer Indicator

The trailer indicator is controlled by the instrument cluster software on receipt of CAN signals on the medium speed CAN bus from the Central Junction Box (CJB). When a trailer is connected to the vehicle electrical system and the turn signal indicator switch is operated, the CJB transmits a signal to the instrument cluster to operate the trailer indicator. The instrument cluster software controls the flash rate of the indicator which flashes in a green color. The trailer indicator flashes slowly, accompanied simultaneously by a sound from the instrument cluster sounder, at the same rate as the turn signal indicators.

24. Auxiliary Heating Indicator

The auxiliary heater indicator is only illuminated for a bulb check for 3 seconds when the ignition is moved to position II.

25. Engine Management System (EMS) Fault Indicator

The EMS fault indicator is only available on low line instrument clusters. The indicator is controlled by the ECM and the instrument cluster software on receipt of CAN signals from the ECM. The indicator is illuminated in an amber color for bulb check when the ignition is moved to position II. The lamp is extinguished when the engine starts. Engine management faults which do not affect emissions will permanently illuminate the EMS fault indicator. The indicator will only extinguish when the fault has been rectified.

Reduced engine performance or limp home operation is also signalled to the driver by the EMS fault indicator.

26. Driveline Fault Indicator

The Driveline fault indicator is controlled by transfer box control module, rear differential control module and the transmission control module and the instrument cluster software. The indicator is illuminated by the instrument cluster on receipt of a CAN signal of either of the controlling modules. The instrument cluster interprets the signals and can illuminate the indicator in either an amber or red colour as appropriate for faults relating to either the transfer box, rear differential or the automatic transmission. Amber illumination signifies a minor fault which should be rectified when convenient, Red illumination signifies a major fault which should be rectified at the earliest opportunity.

27. Hill Descent Control (HDC) Fault Indicator

The HDC fault indicator is only available on low line instrument clusters; on high line instrument cluster fault information is displayed by appropriate messages in the message center. The HDC fault indicator is illuminated by the instrument cluster software on receipt of CAN signals from the ABS module. The indicator is illuminated in an amber color when a HDC fault is present. The indicator is illuminated in an amber color for a 3 second bulb check when the ignition is moved to position II. If a fault occurs in the HDC system, the amber indicator is illuminated   Anti-Lock Control - Traction Control (206-09A Anti-Lock Control - Traction Control)


During the bulb check, if the indicator comes on for 0.5 second, then goes off for 0.5 second and is then illuminated for the remaining 2 seconds of the bulb check, this indicates that faults are stored in the ABS module memory.

If the indicator was illuminated due to a sensor fault, the indicator will remain illuminated at the next ignition cycle, even if the fault is rectified. When the vehicle is driven above a speed of 20 km/h (12.5 mph) the indicator will be extinguished. This allows the ABS module to perform a thorough check of the system and to establish that the output from the replaced sensor is correct.

If the use of HDC causes the brake discs to exceed their pre-determined temperature, the HDC system initiates a 'fade out'. The HDC fault indicator flashes during 'fade out'. When the brake discs have cooled sufficiently, HDC is reactivated and the HDC fault indicator is extinguished.

28. Water In Fuel Indicator

This indicator is non-functional.

29. Driveline Overheat Indicator

The driveline overheat indicator is controlled by the instrument cluster software on receipt of CAN signals from the transfer box control module, rear differential control module or the transmission control module for the automatic transmission. The indicator is illuminated in an amber color for a 3 second bulb check when the ignition is moved to position II. When one or more of the control modules sense that the controlled component has reached its over temperature threshold, the applicable control module(s) transmits a CAN signal to the instrument cluster which illuminates the indicator for as long as the over temperature condition exists.

30. Low Washer Fluid Indicator

The low washer fluid indicator is only available on low line instrument clusters; on high line instrument cluster the level information is displayed by appropriate messages in the message center. The low washer fluid indicator is controlled by the instrument cluster. The washer fluid level sensor is hardwired into the instrument cluster which monitors the sensor output. The indicator is illuminated in an amber color for 3 seconds when the ignition is moved to position II. When the fluid in the washer reservoir falls to a predetermined level, the instrument cluster senses the signals from the sensor and illuminates the indicator and emits a single warning chime to alert the driver. The instrument cluster monitors the level sensor signals every 15 seconds to prevent incorrect warnings occurring due to fluid movement. When the reservoir is replenished the indicator is extinguished.

31. Door Open Indicator

The door open indicator is controlled by the instrument cluster on receipt of CAN signals from the Central Junction Box (CJB). The indicator is illuminated in a red color if any of the front or rear passenger doors, the driver's door, the bonnet or the tail gate are left open with the ignition switch in position II.

32. Park Brake City Mode Indicator

This indicator is non-functional.

33. Tyre Pressure Warning Indicator

The tyre pressure warning indicator is only available on low instrument cluster, high line instrument clusters display warning messages in the message center. The Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) indicator is controlled by the instrument cluster software on receipt of CAN signals from the TPMS module. The indicator is illuminated in a red color for a 3 second bulb check by the TPMS module when the ignition is moved to position II.

If the indicator remains illuminated after the engine is started or illuminates when driving, the vehicle should be stopped at the earliest opportunity and the tyre pressures checked.

34. Low Coolant Indicator

The low coolant indicator is controlled by the instrument cluster. The coolant level sensor is hardwired into the instrument cluster which monitors the sensor output. The indicator is illuminated in an amber color for 3 seconds when the ignition is moved to position II. When the coolant in the header tank falls to a predetermined level, the instrument cluster senses the signals from the low coolant sensor. The instrument cluster flashes the indicator for 5 seconds accompanied by an a chime and then illuminates the indicator. The indicator remains illuminated until the coolant level in the header tank is restored to its correct level. The instrument cluster monitors the level sensor signals every 15 seconds to prevent incorrect warnings due to fluid movement.

35. Overspeed Warning Indicator

The overspeed warning indicator is only available on low line instrument clusters; on high line instrument cluster the level information is displayed by appropriate messages in the message center. The overspeed warning indicator is controlled by the instrument cluster and the speed threshold is determined by the default setting. The instrument cluster receives vehicle speed information from the ABS module on the CAN. The instrument cluster software monitors the speed signal data and determines when the speed threshold has been exceeded. When an overspeed condition occurs, the indicator is illuminated permanently for as long as the overspeed condition occurs.

39. Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) Indicator (if fitted)

The ACC indicator is controlled by the ACC module and the instrument cluster software. The indicator is illuminated when cruise control is active and another vehicle is detected by the radar system in front of the vehicle. The indicator is illuminated in an amber color to alert the driver that the ACC system is active and will automatically control the vehicle speed to maintain a set distance from the vehicle in front.

ANALOGUE INSTRUMENTS

The analogue instruments located in the instrument cluster are as follows:

The speedometer, tachometer, fuel gauge and engine temperature gauge are each driven by an electronic stepper motor. The characteristics of this type of motor produce damping of the pointer needle. All of the gages return to their respective zero positions when the ignition is switched off.

Speedometer

The speedometer is driven by square wave signals derived from the wheel speed sensors and the ABS module. The wheel speeds are measured by the wheel speed sensors reading the rotational speed of the wheels from toothed targets on the hubs. The wheel speeds are passed from the sensors to the ABS module in the form of pulsed signals. The ABS module converts these signals into a speed output on the high speed CAN to the instrument cluster.

Three versions of the speedometer display are used. The three versions show the speed in kilometres per hour, the speed in miles per hour as the main display and kilometres per hour as a secondary display and Canadian variants show the kilometres per hour as the main display and miles per hours as the secondary display.

Tachometer

The tachometer is driven by an engine speed signal transmitted on the high speed CAN from the ECM. The signal is derived from the Crankshaft Position (CKP) sensor. The signal is received by the instrument cluster microprocessor and the output from the microprocessor drives the tachometer.

Two versions of the tachometer are used for petrol and diesel engine variants. The petrol engine variants use a display which has a maximum engine speed reading of 8000 rev/min. The diesel engine variants use a display which has a maximum engine speed reading of 6000 rev/min.

Fuel Level Gage

The fuel level gage displays the fuel tank contents. When the ignition is off, the pointer returns to the empty position.

The instrument pack is connected to two tank level sensors. One sensor is located at the front of the fuel tank and the other is located at the rear. Each sensor uses a float operated MAgnetic Passive Position Sensor (MAPPS) for measuring the fuel tank contents.   Fuel Tank and Lines (310-01A Fuel Tank and Lines - 4.0L)
  Fuel Tank and Lines (310-01B Fuel Tank and Lines - 4.4L)
  Fuel Tank and Lines (310-01C Fuel Tank and Lines - 2.7L Diesel)


Each sensor is supplied with a reference current from the instrument cluster. The instrument cluster measures the returned output from each sensor which is proportional to the amount of fuel in the tank and the position of the float arm. The inclination of the vehicle, derived from a CAN message from the Electronic Park Brake (EPB) module, is also used to calculate the fuel tank contents. The instrument cluster uses the fuel level sensor signals and the EPB module inclination signals to accurately calculate the volume of fuel in the tank and display this on the fuel level gage. The instrument cluster monitors the signals and updates the fuel level gage pointer position at approximately 20 second intervals. This prevents the pointer moving continually due to fuel movement in the tank due to cornering or braking. When the ignition is off, the pointer needle returns to the empty position.

A warning lamp is incorporated into the fuel level gage and illuminates when the fuel tank volume is at or below 10 liters (2.19 Gallons) on petrol models and 18 liters (3.96 Gallons) on diesel models. This is accompanied by a chime from the instrument cluster to alert the driver to the low fuel condition. On vehicles with a high line instrument cluster the low fuel level is also displayed in the message center.

The fuel tank contents is converted into a CAN signal by the instrument cluster and transmitted on the CAN. This is used by the fuel fired booster heater to suspend operation on diesel variants.

The following table shows the fuel tank fuel quantity and the respective pointer positions.

Fuel Tank Quantity (Liters) Needle Pointer Position
4.82 EMPTY
12.5 LOW FUEL (Low fuel indicator illuminated) 4.0L V6 and 4.4L V8 only
14 LOW FUEL (Low fuel indicator illuminated) TdV6 only
25.5 ONE QUARTER FULL
45.4 HALF FULL
66.1 THREE QUARTERS FULL
79.89 FULL

Engine Coolant Temperature Gage

The engine coolant temperature gage displays the engine coolant temperature to the driver. When the ignition is off the pointer needle returns to the cold position.

The engine coolant temperature sensor is connected to the ECM which monitors the sensor signals and converts the signals into a value for the engine coolant temperature. This information is transmitted on the high speed CAN for use by the instrument cluster and other systems.   Electronic Engine Controls (303-14A Electronic Engine Controls - 4.0L)

The engine coolant temperature gage is the same on all pack variants. The gage has a blue segment for low temperatures and a red segment for excessively high temperatures. For normal operating temperatures the gage needle pointer is positioned centrally in the gage display zone. The needle pointer position translates to the following approximate temperatures.

Engine Coolant Temperature ºC (ºF) Needle Pointer Position
Ignition off Park position
40 (104) Cold (Blue segment)
75 - 115 (167 - 239) Normal
120 (248) Start of hot (Red segment)
125 (257) End of hot

AMBIENT LIGHT SENSOR

An ambient light sensor is located in the instrument cluster, adjacent to the alarm indicator. The ambient light sensor is a phototransistor which measures the available ambient light.

The phototransistor measures the ambient light (lux) level and passes a signal value for the available light level to the instrument cluster microprocessor. The instrument cluster software adjusts the display brightness of the message center and information display LCD's accordingly to ensure that the displays are clearly visible during day and night time driving.

DIAGNOSTICS



Car Configuration File

The Car Configuration File (CCF) contains all relevant data about the specification and market condition of the applicable vehicle, immobilisation codes and driver personal settings. This information is retained in the Central Junction Box (CJB), the Engine Control Module (ECM) and the instrument cluster enabling each system module to detect which systems and components are fitted to the vehicle. The information is continuously transferred between the three system modules to ensure that the data is constantly backed-up between the modules.

  : When a new instrument cluster is to be installed, a Land Rover approved diagnostic system must be connected to the vehicle and the instrument cluster renewal procedure followed to replace the cluster. This will ensure that vehicle coding data is correctly installed in the new instrument cluster. A Land Rover approved diagnostic system will also record the current service interval data and restore the settings in the new instrument cluster.

When a new instrument cluster is installed, a Land Rover approved diagnostic system is used to transfer the CCF data from the CJB to the replacement cluster. Vehicle coding data such as engine type, market etc is retrieved and used to update the replacement instrument cluster.

The CCF will also need to be updated using a Land Rover approved diagnostic system if the vehicle is modified in service from its original factory specification. This can include fitting non-standard wheels and/or tyres, optional accessory dealer fit components with an electrical interface, i.e. park distance control.
