where safety related items are concerned.
CAUTION: Before undertaking any electrical work on a vehicle
ALWAYS read the ELECTRICAL PRECAUTIONS.
FREELANDER 98MY
REVISED: 9/98
1.1
INTRODUCTION
Battery voltage
Before commencing diagnosis of electrical problems, verify the condition of the
battery is acceptable by using the open circuit voltage test.
Open circuit voltage test

1. Switch off all electrical loads on the vehicle.
2. Adjust digital multimeter to read dc volts on the appropriate scale.
3. Connect test probes across battery terminals ensuring that polarity is
correct and record the voltage displayed.
A reading of 12.3V or more is acceptable; any battery which reads less
than this will need charging.
NOTE: If the vehicle has been used within a period of 8 hours prior
to the test, surface charge must be removed from the battery by
switching the headlamps on for approximately 30 seconds. Wait a
further 60 seconds before checking the open circuit voltage.
Battery voltage is used as a known reference for ascertaining whether or not
circuits are receiving sufficiently high voltage for components to function
correctly. This reference is only a guide since most electronic circuits are
designed to function over a wide range of voltages. In addition, consideration
must be given to readings affected by voltage drop across certain components
and fluctuations due to cable lengths.

FREELANDER 98MY
INTRODUCTION
ELECTRICAL PRECAUTIONS
General
The following guidelines are intended to ensure the safety of the operator whilst
preventing damage to the electrical and electronic components fitted to the
vehicle. Where necessary, specific precautions are detailed in the relevant
sections of this document, reference to which should be made prior to
commencing repair operations.
Equipment - Prior to commencing any test procedure on the vehicle, ensure
that the relevant test equipment is working correctly and any harness or
connectors are in good condition. This particularly applies to mains lead and
connections.
WARNING: Before commencing work on an ignition system, all
high tension terminals, adapters and diagnostic equipment for
testing should be inspected to ensure that they are adequately
insulated and shielded to prevent accidental personal contact and to
minimise the risk of shock. Wearers of surgically implanted pacemaker
devices should not work in close proximity to ignition circuits or
diagnostic equipment.
Polarity - Never reverse connect the vehicle battery and always observe the
correct polarity when connecting test equipment.
High Voltage Circuits - Whenever disconnecting live ht circuits, always use
insulated pliers and never allow the open end of the ht lead to come into
contact with other components, particularly ECUs. Since high voltage spikes
can occur on the terminals of the coil while the engine is running, exercise
caution when measuring the voltage at these points.
FREELANDER 98MY
1.3
INTRODUCTION
Connectors and Harnesses - The engine compartment of a vehicle is a
particularly hostile environment for electrical components and connectors.
Always ensure these items are dry and oil free before disconnecting and
connecting test equipment. Never force connectors apart either by using tools
or by pulling on the wiring harness. Always ensure locking tabs are disengaged
before removal and note orientation to enable correct reconnection. Ensure
that any protective covers and substances are replaced if disturbed.
Before removing a faulty component, refer to the Workshop Manual for removal
procedures. Ensure the starter switch is turned to the OFF position, the
battery is disconnected (see Battery disconnecting) and any disconnected
harnesses are supported to avoid any undue strain at terminals. When
replacing the component keep oily hands away from electrical connection
areas and push connectors home until any locking tabs fully engage.
Battery disconnecting
Before disconnecting the battery, switch off all electrical equipment. If the radio
is to be serviced, ensure the security code has been deactivated.
CAUTION: To prevent damage to electrical components, ALWAYS
disconnect the battery when working on the vehicle electrical
system. The earth lead must be disconnected first and reconnected
last. Always ensure that battery leads are routed correctly and are not
close to any potential chafing points.
Battery charging
Recharge the battery out of the vehicle and keep the top well ventilated. While
being charged or discharged, and for approximately fifteen minutes afterwards,
batteries emit hydrogen gas. This gas is inflammable.
Always ensure any battery charging area is well ventilated and that every
precaution is taken to avoid naked flames and sparks.
1.4
FREELANDER 98MY
INTRODUCTION
Disciplines
Switch off ignition prior to making any connection or disconnection in the
system as electrical surge caused by disconnecting live connections can
damage electronic components.
Ensure hands and work surfaces are clean and free of grease, swarf, etc. as
grease collects dirt which can cause tracking or high-resistance contacts.
When handling printed circuit boards, treat them as you would a disc - hold by
the edges only; note that some electronic components are susceptible to body
static.
Connectors should never be subjected to forced removal or refit, especially
inter-board connectors, damaged contacts will cause short-circuit and
open-circuit conditions.
Prior to commencing test, and periodically during test, touch a good earth, i.e.
cigar lighter socket, to discharge body static as some electronic components
are vulnerable to static electricity.
Grease for electrical connectors
Some under bonnet and under body connectors are protected against
corrosion by the application of a special grease on production. Should
connectors of this type be disturbed, repaired or replaced, a grease of this type,
available under Part No. BAU 5811, should again be applied.
NOTE: The use of other greases must be avoided as they can
migrate into relays, switches etc. contaminating the contacts and
leading to intermittent operation or failure.

INTRODUCTION
FAULT DIAGNOSIS
When diagnosing an electrical fault follow the steps below:
1. Read the circuit description appropriate to the reported fault to ensure a
good understanding of circuit operation.
2. Study the power distribution, fuse details and earth distribution diagrams
and identify other circuits which share fuses and/or earth points. Check
whether these circuits operate correctly.
3. Using the photographs contained in the Connector section, locate a point
on the circuit (approximately half way between supply and earth) which is
easily accessible.
4. Check that the pin out details of the connector are correct and that the
correct signals exist at the correct terminals.
5. Using the marker pen supplied (or other suitable non- permanent marker
pen), mark the parts of the circuit you have verified.
6. Continue to the next point on the circuit which is easiest to access and
repeat the above.
7. Continue this approach until a fault is found, rectify the fault and then
verify that the circuit operates correctly.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

ANTI THEFT ALARM
The anti theft alarm system is controlled by the Central Control Unit (CCU)
which is located on the passenger compartment fusebox. The alarm can be
armed and disarmed using the vehicle key or the remote handset. The alarm
system has four main features associated with the security of the vehicle:
Perimetric protection
Volumetric protection
Crank inhibition
Engine immobilization
Perimetric Protection
Perimetric protection secures against intrusion through the bonnet, doors, tail
door or roof. The CCU monitors the state of the hinged panels after the alarm
system has been armed. If a panel is opened after the alarm has been armed,
the alarm will be triggered.
Switches are incorporated into the door latch assemblies and the bonnet, tail
door and on three door vehicles only, the removable hard or soft back.
Perimetric protection is initiated after a valid arm request is received. If any
panel is open when the the perimetric protection is activated (other than the
roof), the system will arm in a partially armed state.
Volumetric Protection
Volumetric protection provides protection for the vehicles interior. A volumetric
sensor monitors the vehicle interior space and activates the alarm if
unauthorized movement is detected. The volumetric sensor is located in a
central position on the roof panel behind the roof lining.
A fifteen second delay is initiated after arming of the alarm before signals from
the volumetric sensor are interpreted as an intrusion. This precaution is
included in the CCU software to avoid accidental or nuisance triggering of the
alarm.
FREELANDER 98MY
4.1

Crank Inhibition/Engine Immobilization
The CCU will transmit a coded signal to the engine control module (ECM) when
the ignition is switched to position II. If the coded signal does not correspond to
the programmed code in the ECM, the ECM prevents the engine crank request
and immobilizes the engine ignition circuits, rendering the engine inoperable.
Anti Theft Alarm System Features
Key and Remote Handset Locking

The vehicle can be locked and the alarm armed using either the vehicle key or
the remote handset.
NOTE: The central door locking (CDL) switch, located on the centre
of the facia, will lock/unlock the doors from inside the vehicle but
will not arm the alarm.
Remote Handset
The remote handset transmits a coded radio signal when one of the two
buttons is pressed. The signal from the handset is received by an alarm
receiver and transmitted to the CCU. The alarm receiver is located at the top of
the instrument pack.
The handset signals must be synchronized to the CCU. The synchronization
will be lost if the power supply to the vehicle or the handset is lost.
Synchronization can be reprogrammed by pressing the handset lock button five
times in quick succession with the ignition off. Alternatively, the ignition can be
switched to position II with the handset attached to the key ring, this will
automatically reprogram the synchronization. This is achieved by means of a
circular transponder antenna located around the outside diameter of the
ignition switch. For this to happen, the transmitter must be within 70 mm of the
ignition barrel.
4.2
FREELANDER 98MY

Friendly Disarm
A friendly disarm function is available, to start the engine when the vehicle is
passively immobilized. The function operates when the ignition is switched to
position II and the remote handset is within 70 mm of the transponder antenna.
The transponder will generate a magnetic field which causes the remote
handset to transmit a re-mobilization signal. The signal is received by the CCU
which allows the engine to be started. If a valid signal is not received from the
remote handset within one minute of the ignition being switch to position II, the
CCU will stop the transponder antenna generating the magnetic field until the
ignition is turned off and then on again.
Passive Immobilization
Passive immobilization is achieved by turning off the ignition and opening the
drivers door or turning off the ignition and the ignition not being sensed for
approximately five minutes.
Passive immobilization disables the engine crank operation and prevents the
sending of the coded signal from the CCU to the engine control module. The
alarm LED on the instrument pack will slow flash. If the ignition is on with the
engine immobilized, the alarm LED will be permanently illuminated.
If mobilization of the engine occurs by an unauthorized procedure and the
ignition is not sensed within approximately five minutes, then the passive
immobilization will become active and the engine will be disabled.
A passively immobilized vehicle may be mobilized by pressing the unlock
button on the remote hand set or using the Emergency Key Access (EKA)
feature.
FREELANDER 98MY
4.3

Partial Arming
Partial arming protects as much of the vehicle as possible if the alarm is armed
with one or more panels left open. The partial arming also allows the alarm to
be armed if a failure of a panel switch or wiring occurs.
When the alarm system enters a partially armed state, a mislock warning will
sound the vehicle horn once for a short time to alert the driver to check for
open panels and attempt arming again if necessary. Also there will be no alarm
arm confirmation from the hazard warning lamps or a fast flash from the alarm
LED. The CCU can enter four partially armed states as follows:
Alarm armed with drivers door open
If the drivers door is open when the alarm is armed, the CCU will suspend
double locking of the panels and volumetric sensing and enter a partially
armed state. All other functions of the alarm will be armed and the CCU will
continue to monitor the open panel.
Alarm armed with passenger door(s) open
If a passenger door is open when the alarm is armed, the CCU will suspend
Alarm armed with the tail door open
If the tail door is open when the alarm is armed, the CCU will suspend
4.4
FREELANDER 98MY

Alarm armed with the bonnet open
If the bonnet is open when the alarm is armed, the CCU will allow double
locking of the panels and volumetric sensing and enter a partially armed
state. All other functions of the alarm will be armed and the CCU will
When the open panel is closed with the alarm in a partially armed state, the
CCU will upgrade its status to fully armed. The CCU will initiate the upgrade
when it senses that the panel which caused the mislock has been correctly
closed.
Alarm Trigger
When the alarm is set in its fully armed condition, it can be triggered by the
CCU if it receives one or more of the following input signals:
Bonnet opening
Tail door opening
Drivers door or passenger doors opening
A valid movement detected signal from the volumetric sensor
On three door vehicles only - Removal of the hard back or removal/lowering
of the soft back (if it was fitted when the alarm was armed).
After a valid alarm trigger input is received, the CCU will activate audible and
visual warnings for approximately thirty seconds. The audible warning is
generated by the vehicle horn (or BBUS if fitted) which will sound at 0.5 second
intervals. The visual warning is provided by the hazard warning lamps which
are operated at the same frequency as the horn.
The CCU will permit the alarm to be triggered up to three times in any armed
period. Further triggering is prevented even if valid trigger input signals are
received. The four most recent alarm triggers are stored in the CCUs memory.
TestBook can interrogate the CCU to establish the cause(s) of the alarm
triggers.

EDC/MEMS Alarm Interaction
The Electronic Diesel Control (EDC) and the Modular Engine Management
System (MEMS) Electronic Control Modules (ECMs) operate in a similar
manner with regard to alarm system interaction. The ECM will not mobilize the
engine electrics or initiate an engine crank signal until it has received a valid
code from the CCU. If no signal code or the incorrect code is received, then the
ECM will not grant engine crank or engine electrical operations.
Emergency Key Access (EKA)
The EKA feature permits a locked and armed vehicle to be unlocked and fully
disarmed using the key. This feature is useful if the remote handset is not
available or is inoperative.
When the vehicle has been locked using the key or the remote handset,
unlocking and disarming of the alarm system is normally achieved by means of
the remote handset. If the remote handset is not available or inoperative,
access to the vehicle can be obtained by unlocking the drivers door with the
vehicle key which initiates the EKA status. When the vehicle enters the EKA
state, the following occurs:
The drivers door unlocks (other doors remain CDL locked)

The alarm LED continues to slow flash
Perimetric protection is suspended on all panels, except the bonnet
Engine immobilization and crank disable remain activated
Volumetric protection is deactivated.
FREELANDER 98MY
4.7

EKA requires the entry of a four number code in the CCU. The code is
randomly generated and is not connected with the VIN. Each number in the
code can be between 1 and 15. The EKA code is entered by turning the key in
the drivers door lock to the lock and unlock positions in accordance with the
code.
If the EKA code, for example is 3, 6, 2 and 11, the following procedure would
be required to fully unlock and disarm the vehicle:
NOTE: When entering the code, unlocking and locking will operate
as normal on the first turn of the key. The procedure starts with the
vehicle in the locked condition and the first turn to the unlock
position initiates the EKA state.
Turn the key once to the unlock position and wait for a minimum of five
minutes before proceeding to enter the EKA code
Turn the key to the unlock position three times
Turn the key to the lock position six times
Turn the key to the unlock position two times
Turn the key to the lock position eleven times.
Finally, turn the key to the unlock position once.
If the code is entered correctly the CCU will unlock all doors, fully disarm the
alarm and mobilize the ignition and crank circuits. If the code is entered
incorrectly the vehicle will remain in the EKA state. Three incorrect attempts at
code entry will result in the CCU initializing a thirty minute time-out period. The
CCU will fail to respond to any further code entry attempt during this period.
If a code is entered incorrectly, the system can be reset by opening and closing
the drivers door or turning the ignition on and off. An aborted attempt will not
count on the CCUs tally of incorrect attempts.

CENTRAL DOOR LOCKING
Central Door Locking Description
Three methods are available for locking the panels; locking using the vehicle
key or the remote handset and locking using the central door locking (CDL)
switch. The alarm is affected by the locking and unlocking of the vehicle - refer
to anti theft alarm for details.
An inertia switch, located under the bonnet on the bulkhead, automatically
unlocks all the doors when it is tripped with the ignition on and the alarm
disarmed. When the inertia switch is in the tripped condition, locking of the
vehicle is prevented until the ignition is switched off and the drivers door is
opened and closed.
Two levels of hinged panel locking are available; Central Door Locking (CDL)
and superlocking. Superlocking is only available on the drivers door and the
passenger door(s). CDL allows the doors to be locked from inside or outside of
the vehicle. In the CDL state, the drivers door and the passenger door(s) can
be unlocked from inside the vehicle. Superlocking prevents the doors from
being opened from inside the vehicle and is initiated using the remote handset
or two turns to lock using the vehicle key in the drivers door lock. Superlocking
can only be removed using the remote handset or the emergency key access
(EKA) facility.
FREELANDER 98MY
4.9

Each side door has a latch mechanism which contains two electrically operated
motors which drive the latch mechanism into one of its two locked states. When
CDL locking is selected, only the CDL motor operates. When superlocking is
selected both the CDL and superlocking motors operate. Each motor responds
to requests generated by the Central Control Unit (CCU). The tail door has a
lock motor in its latch mechanism. The tail door lock motor operates
independent of the key and remote handset locking. When the vehicle is CDL
locked or superlocked, the CCU removes the power supply from the tail door
lock motor, preventing the tail door from being opened.
A switch within each latch mechanism signals the CCU if a door is open or
closed. In the drivers door latch mechanism, a second switch operates from a
lock barrel and transmits signals to the CCU dependant on key movement. This
switch operates the key locking of the vehicle and also the EKA feature.
A latch motor protection feature is programmed into the CCU. This prevents
continual operation of the door latch mechanism motors. The CCU will only
allow a maximum of eight changes of state of the latch mechanism within a
sixteen second period.
The drivers door latch mechanism is designed to prevent slam locking. Slam
locking is available on the passenger door(s).
A lock request made using the vehicle key or the remote handset will not be
granted when the ignition is in position II. If any of the doors are open when
superlock is requested from either the vehicle key or the remote handset, the
CCU will only CDL lock the doors which are correctly closed.
4.10
FREELANDER 98MY

Key locking
The vehicle can be locked and unlocked using the vehicle key. Only the
drivers door has an external door lock.
One single turn of the key towards the rear of the vehicle will centrally lock all
doors and arm the alarm. If the key is turned a second time within one second
of the first turn, then the vehicle will engage the superlocking facility.
Unlocking the drivers door with the key initiates the emergency key access
(EKA) procedure. The EKA feature permits a locked and armed vehicle to be
unlocked and fully disarmed using the key. This feature must be used if the
remote handset is not available or is inoperative. Refer to Anti Theft Alarm
Description for EKA procedure.
Remote Handset locking

The remote handset transmits a coded radio signal when one of the two
buttons is pressed. The signal from the handset is received by an alarm
receiver and transmitted to the CCU. The alarm receiver is located at the top of
the instrument pack.
The handset signals must be synchronized to the CCU. The synchronization
will be lost if the power supply to the vehicle or the handset is removed.
Synchronization can be reprogrammed by pressing the handset lock button five
times in quick succession with the ignition off. Alternatively, the ignition can be
switched to position II with the handset attached to the key ring, this will
automatically reprogram the synchronization. This is achieved by means of a
circular transponder antenna located around the outside diameter of the
ignition switch, which prompts the transmitter to give a remobilization signal.
For this to happen, the transmitter must be within 70 mm of the ignition barrel.
FREELANDER 98MY
4.11

A single push of the lock button on the remote handset superlocks the drivers
door and the passenger door(s).
A Single Point Entry (SPE) feature is programmed into the CCU. The SPE
feature provides user security by allowing the unlocking of the drivers door
only. SPE only functions when unlocking the vehicle from the superlocked
condition using a single press on the remote handset. A single push of the
open button on the remote handset fully unlocks the drivers door and removes
the superlocking from the passenger door(s). The passenger door(s) remain
CDL locked. A second push on the remote handset open button fully unlocks
all the remaining doors.
Central Door Locking (CDL) Switch

On all variants, a CDL rocker type switch is located on the centre of the facia.
The switch allows the vehicle to be centrally locked from inside the vehicle
without arming the alarm. Use of the switch will also unlock the vehicle
providing that the alarm is disarmed.
The CDL switch will not lock the doors if the inertia switch is tripped. If the
inertia switch is tripped when the doors are CDL locked, they will automatically
unlock.
Central Door Locking Operation
A feed from the battery positive terminal (C192-2) is connected by a red wire to
the engine compartment fusebox (C632-1) and passes through fuse 4 and
fusible links 6 and 4 which are connected in series.

With the vehicle unlocked, operation of the tail door handle trips a switch
located in the handle housing.
An earth is connected by a black wire from the tail door switch (C616-1) to the
earth header joint (C551-8). When the tail door switch is operated, an earth
path is completed from the CCU (C428-23) to the switch (C616-2) by a black
and orange wire. The CCU interprets the completion of the earth path as a
signal to operate the tail door lock motor.
The CCU supplies a feed on a purple and blue wire to the tail door lock motor
(C617-1). An earth is connected from the lock motor (C617-2) to the earth
header joint (C551-8) by a black wire.
When the tail door handle is released, the earth path through the tail door
switch is terminated. This signals the CCU to remove the feed to the tail door
lock motor. The lock motor is spring loaded and returns to its de-energized
condition ready for its next operation.
When the vehicle is CDL locked or superlocked, the CCU will not respond to
operation of the tail door switch and therefore will not supply power to the tail
door lock motor. This prevents the tail door from being opened when the
vehicle is in a locked condition.

DOOR AND TAIL DOOR WINDOW
Door Window Description
On all models, the front door windows are electrically operated. Each front door
is fitted with a window motor located inside the door structure behind the trim
panel. The motor is indirectly connected to the window raise/lower mechanism.
The left and right front door windows are operated by individual rocker type
switches located in the centre of the facia. Power is supplied to the window
motors, via each switch, from a relay located in the passenger compartment
fusebox. When the ignition switch is in position II, the relay contacts close
supplying power to the front window switches. The relay contacts are open
when the ignition is switched off and the windows will not function. Each
window switch is illuminated when the side lights are turned on.
Tail Door Window Description
On all five door models and higher specification three door models, an
electrically operated tail door window is fitted. The tail door is fitted with a
window motor located inside the door structure behind the trim panel. The
motor is connected by a continuous cable to the window raise/lower
mechanism.
The tail door window is operated by a rocker type switch located in the centre
of the facia. Power is supplied to the motor via a tail door window lift relay,
which is located on the right hand rear suspension turret. The window motor
can be operated with the ignition switched off. The tail door window switch is
illuminated when the side lights are turned on.
4.22
FREELANDER 98MY

The tail door window can also be lowered using the remote handset. Pressing
the handset unlock button for approximately 2.0 seconds will fully lower the tail
door window. The window can be fully raised from outside the vehicle using a
barrel lock switch located in the tail door handle shroud. The barrel switch can
be turned clockwise and held using the vehicle key which raises the window
fully. If the key is released before the window is fully raised it will automatically
lower.
On higher specification three door models the tail door window is disabled in
the lowered position if the soft back is removed or lowered or the hard back is
removed. A switch, located on the right hand rear panel, is depressed when the
soft back is deployed or the hard back is fitted. When the soft back is raised or
the hard back is removed, the switch is released causing an open circuit. This
is interpreted as a signal to the Central Control Unit (CCU) which automatically
lowers the tail door window. This function operates with the ignition turned off.
Further operation of the tail door window is prevented until the soft back is
refitted or raised or the hard back is refitted.
When the tail door is open, the tail door window can be lowered, but not raised
until the tail door is closed.
The CCU is programmed with functions to protect the tail door window glass
from damage:
When the tail door handle is operated to open the door, a switch in the door
handle signals the CCU to initiate a delay, to lower the window glass
approximately 20 mm before allowing the tail door to be opened. This
prevents the door from being opened with the window glass still engaged in
the seal recess. When the tail door is closed, the tail door window glass
automatically lifts approximately 20 mm and engages with the seal recess.
FREELANDER 98MY
4.23

The CCU receives signals from the rear screen wiper motor window sense
switches. The window sense switch must be in the off screen position
before the tail door window can be lowered. If the rear windscreen wiper is
operating when the tail door window is requested down, the window will not
lower when the wiper is on a upward stroke. A delay will commence
lowering of the glass when the wiper starts its downward stroke. If the rear
wiper is requested on, the wiper will operate only when the tail door window
is fully raised.
The CCU is programmed with information vital to the correct operation of
the tail door window. The CCU must be aware of the precise position of the
glass for correct window control. A calibration procedure is used to tell the
CCU of the glass position after the vehicle battery has been disconnected.
4.24
FREELANDER 98MY

Tail Door Window Calibration
Information vital to the correct operation of the tail door window is stored in a
Random Access Memory (RAM) in the CCU. If the battery is removed or
electrical power is lost for any reason, a calibration procedure is necessary to
restore the window position information in the CCU RAM.
The CCU will record its window at bottom position when the window is lowered
fully. When the window is fully raised, the CCU will record its window at top
position. This information is stored in the RAM and ensures that the CCU can
monitor the glass position for correct operation.
If the switch is released during either the raise or lower operation, an error
bleep will sound and the entire calibration operation must be repeated.

CHARGING AND STARTING SYSTEM - K SERIES
Charging System Description
The charging system comprises an alternator containing a rectifier pack and a
regulator to maintain a constant direct current (dc) in the system. The alternator
is located at the front of the engine and is belt driven from the crankshaft
pulley.
The alternator has a fixed coil wound stator in which a field coil rotates. Slip
rings conduct current to and from the field coils via two carbon brushes. The
regulator senses the alternator output voltage and regulates this to a maximum
of 14 Volts.
Charging System Operation
A feed from the battery positive terminal (C192-2) is connected to the engine
compartment fuse box (C632-1) on a red wire. Current passes through fuse link
6 and fuse link 3 of the engine compartment fuse box which are connected in
series. Fuse link 3 (C571-2) is connected to the ignition switch (C028-3) by a
brown and red wire.
When the starter switch is moved to position II, a current flows from the ignition
switch (C028-5) on a green wire to the passenger compartment fuse box
(C588-3) and through Fuse 8. The current passes from the fuse box (C589-9)
on a green wire to the instrument pack ignition/no charge warning lamp
(C233-4). The current flows from the warning lamp (C233-10) on a brown and
yellow wire to the alternator (C053-1). The current passes to earth via the
brushes and regulator within the alternator, completing the warning lamp circuit
which allows the warning lamp to illuminate.
FREELANDER 98MY
4.41

When the engine is started, the magnetized rotor turns within the stator
windings generating 3 phase alternating current (ac) and voltage that rises
rapidly with rotor speed. The field diodes in the rectifier pack convert the ac
current into direct current (dc) current. Output current from the field diodes
supplements the initial current flowing through the field windings. This causes
an increase in the magnetic influence of the rotor resulting in self-excitation of
the alternator. The field current increases with rotor speed and thus increases
the generated current and voltage until the alternator is fully excited.
When the voltage applied to the alternator side of the warning lamp, exceeds
the battery voltage applied to the warning lamp, the lamp is extinguished. This
shows that the alternator is producing battery charging current.
When the battery is at a low state of charge or the current draw from the
electrical functions of the vehicle causes a voltage drop, the alternator
automatically charges at its maximum rate (dependant on rotor speed) until 14
Volts is reached. When the demand on the alternator falls, the current output is
reduced.
Battery charging is accomplished on a red wire from the alternator (C183-1) to
the engine compartment fuse box (C574-1). The charging current passes
through fuse link 6 (C632-1) on a red wire to the battery positive terminal

A feed from the battery positive terminal (C192-1) is connected, on a red wire,
directly to the starter motor solenoid (C631-1). When the starter motor solenoid
is energized, the feed from the battery, passes through the closed contacts of
the starter motor solenoid and operates the starter motor. The earth path from
the motor is via the starter motor body.

SUPPLEMENTARY RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)
SRS Description
The supplementary restraint system (SRS) provides additional protection for
front seat occupants during a frontal collision above a preset severity.
The system is operational only while the ignition is on. With the ignition on, any
frontal collision is detected by the airbag Electronic Control Unit (ECU). If the
impact is above the preset severity, the airbag ECU sends out simultaneous
fire signals to the airbag modules and the seat belt pretensioners. The airbag
modules then deploy protective airbags in front of the driver and front seat
passenger, and the seat belt pretensioners retract to tighten the front seat
belts.
Diagnostic circuits in the airbag ECU monitor the system for faults.
SRS Operation
WARNING: Never use multimeters or other general purpose test
equipment on SRS system components or connectors. System
faults should be diagnosed through the use of recommended test
equipment only.
Power is supplied from fusible link 3 in the engine compartment fuse box
(C571-2) to the ignition switch (C028-3) on a brown/red wire. With the ignition
switch on position II, an ignition feed is supplied from the ignition switch
(C028-5) to fuses 8 and 36 in the passenger compartment fuse box (C588-3)
on a green wire. Fuse 8 supplies an ignition feed to the SRS warning lamp, on
green wire from the passenger compartment fuse box (C589-9) to the
instrument pack (C233-4). Fuse 36 supplies an ignition feed from the
passenger compartment fuse box (C580-4) to the airbag ECU (C256-5), also
on a green wire.
4.52
FREELANDER 98MY

For 5 seconds at the beginning of each ignition cycle, and if a fault is detected,
the airbag ECU illuminates the SRS warning lamp. To illuminate the lamp, the
airbag ECU connects the yellow/red wire between the instrument pack
(C233-11) and the airbag ECU (C256-7) to the black earth wire between the
airbag ECU (C256-6) and the airbag ECU fixing on the transmission tunnel
(C360-1).
The airbag ECU sends diagnostic signals and, during a collision, fire signals,
through the airbag and pretensioner circuits.
Testbook communication with the airbag ECU is via a yellow/pink wire from the
diagnostic socket (C040-7) to the airbag ECU (C256-9).

AIR CONDITIONING - K SERIES
Air Conditioning Description
The air conditioning (A/C) system may only be operated with the engine
running. The A/C is selected with a switch on the facia, adjacent to the heater
controls. A warning lamp on the switch illuminates to show that the A/C has
been selected. The switch is also illuminated by a separate bulb when the side
lights are turned on.
The position of the rotary heater control determines the amount of warm air
from the heater matrix blended with cool air from the A/C evaporator and hence
the temperature of the air output from the selected ducts. The blower switch
permits selection of four different blower motor speeds. The blower switch must
be in at least position 1 for the air conditioning to operate.
A fresh/recirculated air switch located on the facia, adjacent to the A/C switch,
allows the selection of recirculated air from within the vehicle. The switch is
connected to a recirculated air servo motor which, when selected, moves a flap
within the A/C unit to prevent the intake of air from outside the vehicle. A
warning lamp on the switch illuminates to show that the fresh/recirculated air air
has been selected. The switch is also illuminated by a separate bulb when the
side lights are turned on.

From the ignition switch (C028-5) a feed is connected by a green wire to the
passenger compartment fusebox (C588-3) where it passes through fuse 3. A
second feed from the ignition switch (C028-6) is connected by a slate and blue
wire to the passenger compartment fusebox (C588-5) where it passes through
fuse 4.
Air Conditioning Switch Warning Lamp Operation

With the ignition in position II, a feed passes from fuse 4 (C586-3) in the
passenger compartment fusebox on a green wire to a connection (C431-1).
The feed continues from the connector (C015-1) on a light green and slate
wire, to the A/C switch (C275-5).
With the A/C switch pushed in, the feed from fuse 4 passes through the A/C
warning light bulb and from the switch (C275-1 LHD/C275-4 RHD) on a slate

is in the off position, the circuit will not be made and the A/C warning light will
not operate.
When the blower motor switch is in at least position 1, the feed passes through
the switch contacts and from the switch (C058-5) on a black wire to earth.
When the earth is made, the warning lamp on the A/C switch illuminates.
FREELANDER 98MY
4.55

Air Conditioning Request
Operation of the A/C system is controlled by the engine control module (ECM).
The ECM decides when to operate the A/C compressor clutch on receipt of an
A/C request signal. The request signal takes the form of an earth signal applied
to the ECM (C159-35).
The earth signal is applied from the ECM (C159-35) on a blue and red wire to
the trinary switch (C279-2) low and high pressure switch contacts. For the low
pressure contact to be made, a refrigerant pressure of at least 1.4 bar (20.3
psi) must be present. A refrigerant pressure of 1.0 bar (14.5 psi) or lower will
break the contact. For the high pressure contact to be made, a refrigerant
pressure of at least 22.5 bar (326.3 psi) must be present. A refrigerant pressure
of 28.5 bar (413.3 psi) or lower will break the contact.
The earth signal is transferred from the contacts of the trinary switch (C279-1)
on a slate and pink wire to the A/C thermostat (C423-1). For the thermostat
contact to be made the thermostat switch must be closed. The thermostat
switch contacts close at temperatures above 1C and open at temperatures
below 1C. The earth signal passes from the A/C thermostat (C422-1) to the
A/C switch (C275-4 LHD/C275-1 RHD) on a slate and pink wire.
With the A/C switch pushed in, the earth signal passes from the switch
(C275-1 LHD/C275-4 RHD) on a slate and white wire to the blower motor
switch (C058-4). If the blower motor switch is in the off position, the circuit will
not be made and the A/C will not operate.
When the blower motor switch is operated, the earth signal passes through the
switch contacts (C058-5) and is connected by a black wire to earth.
4.56
FREELANDER 98MY

The ECM uses the completed earth path as a signal and issues an A/C grant
signal, when necessary changes to idle speed have been made. When the A/C
request signal is removed, the ECM will delay the disengagement of the A/C
compressor clutch until the necessary idle adjustments are completed. The
request/grant process ensures that the idle speed remains as near constant as
possible during engagement/disengagement of the compressor clutch.
Air Conditioning Grant

When the ECM decides that conditions are correct for engagement of the A/C
compressor clutch, it applies an earth signal from the ECM. The grant takes the
form of an earth signal applied from the ECM (C159-19) on a blue and black
wire to the relay module (C173-5). The earth signal allows the A/C compressor
clutch relay to be energized, closing the relay contacts.
A feed from fuse 2 (C572-2) on a brown and white wire passes to the relay
module (C172-8) and to the A/C compressor clutch relay whose contacts have
been closed by the A/C grant. This feed is shared with the condenser fan relay.
From the relay module (C172-2), the feed passes on a red wire to the A/C
compressor clutch. The compressor clutch engages and the earth path is
completed through the compressor mounting to the engine.
Air Conditioning Condenser Fan Request

When the ECM decides that conditions are correct to start the A/C condenser
fan, it applies an earth signal from the ECM. The request takes the form of an
earth signal applied to the ECM (C159-15).
The earth signal is applied from the ECM (C159-15) on a blue and green wire
to the trinary switch (C279-4). The trinary switch normal pressure contact
closes at a pressure of more than 22.5 Bar (326.3 psi) and opens at a pressure
of less than 17.5 Bar (253.8 psi).
FREELANDER 98MY

With the trinary switch normal pressure contact closed, the earth signal is
transferred from the trinary switch (C279-3) to earth on a black wire.
Completion of this earth path is used by the ECM as a signal to grant the A/C
condenser fan.
Air Conditioning Condenser Fan Grant

To grant operation of the condenser fan, the ECM completes an earth path to
the condenser fan relay and the cooling fan 1 relay. The earth path from the
ECM (C159-5) is applied to the relay module (C173-3) on a blue and yellow
wire and completes the circuit for energizing the condenser and cooling fan 1
relays.
The energized main relay inside the engine management relay module
(C157-8) supplies a feed on a brown and pink wire which is connected to the
relay module on two pins (C173-1 and C173-4). This feed energizes the coils of
the A/C compressor clutch relay, the condenser fan relay and the cooling fan 1
and 2 relays.
With the A/C condenser fan grant complete, the condenser fan and the cooling
fan are operated in parallel (fast mode), each fan receiving its power supply
from a separate source.
A feed from fuse 2 (C572-2) in the engine compartment fusebox passes to the
relay module (C172-8) on a brown and white wire. The feed passes through the
condenser fan relay whose contacts have been closed by the A/C grant. From
the relay module (C172-3), the feed passes on a slate and blue wire to the
condenser fan motor (C280-1). The condenser fan (C280-2) is earthed on a
black wire.

FREELANDER 98MY

A feed on a brown wire from fuse 7 (C573-4) in the engine compartment
fusebox, passes to the relay module (C172-7). The feed passes through the
cooling fan 2 relay whose contacts have been closed by the A/C grant. From
the relay module (C172-5), the feed passes on a brown and red wire to the
cooling fan motor (C005-1). The earth for the cooling fan motor (C005-2)
passes to the relay module (C172-6) on a purple and slate wire. The earth path
passes through the cooling fan 1 relay whose contacts have also been closed
by the A/C grant. From the relay module (C172-4) the cooling fan motor is
earthed on a black wire.
High Temperature Disable

The ECM can disable the A/C compressor clutch operation to reduce engine
load when high engine temperatures are experienced.
If the ECM senses a coolant temperature of above 118 C from the engine
coolant temperature (ECT) sensor, the A/C grant is overridden by removing the
earth path from the A/C compressor clutch relay in the relay module at ECM
connector (C159-19). The A/C compressor clutch relay is de-energized,
disengaging the A/C compressor clutch. This condition will remain until the
engine coolant temperature drops to 114 C when the A/C grant will be
reinstated.
Air Conditioning Condenser Fan - High Engine Temperature Grant

The ECM can override the condenser fan request and operate the fan during
high engine temperatures to assist cooling. This can occur even if the A/C
system is not operating. Both fans can run in two modes of operation; slow
mode when each fan is connected in series with a common feed and fast mode
when each fan is connected in parallel with separate feeds. Refer to Cooling

feed passes through the servo motor and is connected from the motor (C006-3
LHD/C006-1 RHD) to the switch (C750-3) by a yellow wire. The feed passes
through the closed contacts of the switch and is connected from the switch

COOLING FAN - K SERIES
Cooling Fan Description - With Air Conditioning
The K series engine with air conditioning, is fitted with a cooling fan and a
condenser fan. Both fans are located behind the radiator. The condenser fan is
also used for additional cooling.
The fans operate together in slow or fast modes depending on engine coolant
temperature. The fans are controlled by the Engine Control Module (ECM)
which responds to signals from the Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor.
Power is supplied to each fan from a main relay which is located in the engine
management relay module. The main relay, in turn, supplies power to a relay
module. The relay module is a shared component between the air conditioning
system and the engine cooling system. The relays within the relay module are
energized by the ECM completing ground paths to operate in either fast or slow
modes.
When the fans operate in slow mode, a single power source, connected in
series, is supplied to each fan. When the fans operate is fast mode, each fan
receives its supply from a separate source and the fans operate in parallel.
At temperatures of 106C, the fans are switched on in series (slow mode). If
the temperature increases to 112C or above, the ECM switches the fans to
operate in parallel (fast mode). When the temperature is reduced to 106C, the
ECM switches the fans to operate in series (slow mode). When the
temperature falls to 100C or below, the ECM removes the earth paths to the
relay module and the fans stop(s) operating.
When the ignition is switched off, the ECM can continue to operate the cooling
fans, in fast mode, for up to eight minutes if the temperature is above 114 C.
The fans will switch off if eight minutes has elapsed or the temperature falls to
112 C or below.

Cooling Fan Description - Without Air Conditioning
The K Series engine without air conditioning, is fitted with one cooling fan
located on behind the radiator. The cooling fan receives its feed from the
engine compartment fusebox and only operates in fast mode. A cooling fan
relay, located below the engine compartment fusebox, transmits the feed from
the fusebox to the fan. The ECM energizes the cooling fan relay when required
by completing an earth path for the relay coil. The feed to the relay coil is
supplied from the main relay which is located in the engine management relay
module.
At temperatures of 106 C the fan is switched on. When the temperature falls to
100 C or below, the ECM removes the earth path to the cooling fan relay and
fan stops operating.
When the ignition is switched off, the ECM can continue to operate the cooling
fan, in fast mode, for up to eight minutes if the temperature is above 114 C.
The fan will switch off if eight minutes has elapsed or the temperature falls to

COOLING FAN - L SERIES
Cooling Fan Description
The L Series engine utilises two fans for radiator cooling. The fans operate
together in slow and fast modes depending on engine coolant temperature.
The fans are controlled by the Engine Control Module (ECM) which responds
to signals from the Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor.
Power is supplied to each fan via a relay module. The relay module is the same
module used for operation of the air conditioning system on vehicles fitted with
air conditioning. The relays within the relay module are energized by the ECM
completing ground paths to operate in either fast or slow modes.
When the fans operate in slow mode, a single power source to each fan is
connected in series. When the fans operate in fast mode, each fan receives its
supply from a separate source and the fans operate in parallel.
At temperatures of 106C the fans are switched on in series (slow mode). If the
temperature increases to 112C or above, the ECM switches the fans to
operate in parallel (fast mode). When the temperature is reduced to 106C, the
ECM switches the fans to operate in series (slow mode). When the
temperature falls to 100C or below the ECM removes the earth paths to relay
module and the fans stop operating.

HEATED REAR WINDOW
Heated Rear Window Description
The heated rear window (HRW) comprises eleven metallic strips bonded to the
inside surface of the rear window glass to form an element. The metallic strips
terminate in two larger strips at the bottom of the glass. Two connectors
bonded to the terminations provide for the attachment of the supply and earth
connections.
The HRW is operated by a non latching switch located in the centre console
above the heater controls. The switch has a warning illumination to show when
the HRW is operating. The switch is also illuminated, by a separate bulb, when
the side lights are turned on.
The HRW draws a high current from the electrical system and to prevent
battery discharge, the circuit is designed to only operate when the engine is
running. This is achieved by the engine oil pressure switch providing an earth
path for the Central Control Unit (CCU) which controls the operation of the
HRW.
With the engine running, pushing the HRW switch signals the CCU to supply
power to energize the HRW relay, which is located in the passenger
compartment fusebox. The relay connects a direct feed from the vehicle battery
to the HRW. The CCU allows the HRW to operate for approximately 15
minutes from operation of the switch or until the ignition is switched off or the
switch is pushed a second time.

WIPERS AND WASHERS
Wipers and Washers Description
Front Wipers and Washers

Two front windscreen wipers are operated by a single electric motor located
below the plenum grill at the base of the windscreen. The wipers are attached
to a link assembly which is driven by the motor. The motor has two connections
which operate the park facility when the wipers are switched off. Two further
connections supply power to the motor for the slow and fast operation. The
functions of the front windscreen wipers are monitored and controlled by the
Central Control Unit (CCU).
The front windscreen washers are operated from the windscreen wash/wipe
switch on the steering column. The washers can only be operated with the
ignition switch in position II. The washers are connected to an electric pump
which is attached to the windscreen washer reservoir located in the right hand
front wheel arch. The pump is attached to two washer jets which are mounted
on the top surface of the bonnet.
The front windscreen wipers are controlled from the windscreen wash/wipe
switch. The wipers can only be operated with the ignition switch in position II.
The multi function switch controls the following operations:
Movement of the switch towards the steering wheel operates the wash/wipe
function. If the switch is pulled and quickly released, the washers and the
wipers will operate, at slow speed, for one cycle. If the switch is pulled and
held, the washers and the wipers operate, at slow speed, for as long as the
switch is operated. The wipers continue to wipe several times after the
switch is released and the washer pump has stopped.

Moving the wiper switch down operates the flick wipe facility. If the switch
is pushed down and quickly released, the wipers complete one cycle at
slow speed. If the switch is held down, the wipers operate at fast speed until
the switch is released. When the switch is released, the wipers complete
their final cycle at slow speed.
A rotary switch controls the wiper operation. The O position is the off
position. Rotation of the switch to position INT operates the intermittent
function. Further rotation of the switch to position -, operates the wipers at
slow speed. Further rotation of the switch to position =, operates the
wipers at fast speed. When the switch is moved to the O position the
wipers will complete the last cycle until they reach the park position.
A five position rotary potentiometer inboard of the wiper control switch,
operates the intermittent wipe delay function. The five positions operate the
wipers intermittently at time delays of approximately 3, 5, 8, 12 and 17
seconds.
Rear Wiper and Washer

The rear windscreen wiper is operated by a single electric motor located in the
tail door. The wiper arm is attached to a spindle which is driven via a gimbal
mechanism from the motor. Four connections supply power to the motor and
the on/off screen sense switches. The functions of the rear windscreen wiper
are monitored and controlled by the CCU. A relay, located on the right hand
rear suspension turret, converts signals from the CCU to control the forward
and reverse operation of the wiper motor. On/off screen sense switches
prevent wiper operation when the rear windscreen is open. The switches also
provide signal information for the CCU to provide the wiper park facility.

The rear windscreen washer is operated from a non latching push switch
located on the facia on the right of the instrument pack. The washer is
connected to an electric pump which is attached to the windscreen washer
reservoir located in the front wheel arch. The pump is attached to a washer jet
which is fitted to the rear wiper arm. When the washer switch is pushed, the
rear washer and the wiper operates for as long as the button is held. When the
switch is released, the washer pump stops and the wiper continues for five
further cycles. The switch is illuminated when the side lights are turned on.
The rear windscreen wiper is operated from a switch located on the facia on
the right of the instrument pack. When the switch is pushed, the rear wiper
completes three cycles. Thereafter, the wiper will perform one cycle every five
seconds until the rear wiper switch is selected off. The switch is illuminated
when the side lights are turned on.
A reverse gear wipe facility also operates the rear wiper. When reverse gear is
selected, with the front wipers on, a signal from the reverse gear switch initiates
the rear wiper to wipe continuously while reverse gear is engaged. When
reverse gear is disengaged or the front wipers are switched off, the wiper will
complete its final cycle and stop.

The earth path provides a signal to the CCU to supply power from fuse 8 of the
passenger compartment fusebox, through the CCU (C429-5) to the rear wiper
relay (C124-7) on a yellow and black wire. This energizes the coil of the
forward relay which provides an earth from the rear screen wiper motor
(C388-1) on a green and red wire to the rear wiper relay (C124-9). The earth
path is completed from the relay (C124-4) to an earth header joint (C551-1) on
a black wire.
A feed is supplied from fuse 30 of the passenger compartment fusebox
(C583-4) to the rear wiper relay (C124-2) on a purple and red wire. The feed
passes through the contacts of the reverse relay and is connected from the
rear wiper relay (C124-6) to the rear screen wiper motor (C388-2) by a green
wire. This operates the rear screen wiper motor in the forward direction.
When the rear wiper switch is pressed to the off position, the earth path to the
CCU is removed. This removes the supply to the rear wiper relay forward relay
coil. The rear wiper will complete its cycle until the CCU senses a signal, from a

INTERIOR LAMPS
Interior Lamps Description
Interior lighting is provided by a glovebox lamp, a load space lamp, ignition
switch illumination and either an interior lamp unit (three door models) or front
and rear interior lamps (five door models). On five door models, the front
interior lamp also incorporates two map lamps. The glovebox lamp is controlled
by a switch integrated into the striker for the glovebox lid, and only operates
while the side lamps or headlamps are illuminated. The interior lamp(s), the
load space lamp and the ignition switch illumination are automatically controlled
by the Central Control Unit (CCU). The interior lamp(s) can also be selected
manually by integral switch(es).
The CCU switches the interior lamps on when a door opens, or the vehicle is
unlocked using the handset or key. The lamps are extinguished in one of four
ways, whichever occurs first:
Approximately 15 seconds after the last door closes.
Immediately, if the ignition switch is turned to position II (on) within
approximately 15 seconds of the last door closing.
Immediately, if the vehicle is locked using the handset or key within
approximately 15 seconds of the last door closing.
After 9 to 11 minutes if a door is left open.
Interior Lamps Operation
The interior lamps are all operated by a fused battery feed. A feed from fusible
link 4 in the engine compartment fuse box (C571-1) is supplied to fuse 14 in the
passenger compartment fuse box (C587-1) by a brown/white wire. Brown wires
supply power from fusible link 2 in the engine compartment fuse box (C570-2)
to the passenger compartment fuse box (C587-3), and from the passenger
compartment fuse box (C586-2) to the lighting switch (041-3).

(C442-6) to the CCU (C428-21).
FREELANDER 98MY
4.113

To illuminate the interior lamps, the CCU switches the common input from the
lamps (C593-A) to earth (not shown) when it detects that a door has opened or
that a handset unlock request has been received by the anti-theft alarm
system. The CCU disconnects the earth to extinguish the interior lamps when
one of the four conditions, given in Description above, occurs.
Manual operation - interior lamp(s)

On three door models, a slider switch in the interior lamp unit can be selected
to OFF, doors (automatic) operation or ON. In the ON position, the switch
connects to an earth through one of the lamp fixings to permanently illuminate
the bulb. In the OFF position, the switch breaks the connection with the CCU to
prevent the bulb illuminating when the CCU switches the common input to
earth.
On five door models, latching push switches in the front and rear interior lamps
can be latched in to permanently illuminate the lamps or latched out for doors
(automatic) operation. When the switches are latched in, they connect to black
wires providing an earth from the front (C355-1) and rear (C356-3) interior
lamps to the earth header joint (C550-6). On the front interior lamp, latching

INSTRUMENTS
Instruments Description
Indications of vehicle and system status are relayed to the driver by the
instruments and warning lamps contained in the instrument pack.
Instruments Operation
The instruments and warning lamps are operated by a mixture of battery and
ignition power, and controlled by inputs from the appropriate vehicle system or
component.
NOTE: Except for those detailed below, information on warning
lamps is contained in the related system Description and
Operation.
Battery power is supplied by brown/white wire from fusible link 4 in the engine
compartment fuse box (C571-1) to fuse 14 in the passenger compartment fuse
box (C587-1). Fuse 14 supplies battery power from the passenger
compartment fuse box (C589-20) to the instrument pack (C230-1) on a purple
wire.
An ignition feed is supplied from fusible Link 3 in the engine compartment fuse
box (C571-2) to the ignition switch (C028-3) on a brown/red wire. When the
ignition switch is set to position II, ignition power is supplied from the ignition
switch (C028-5) to fuse 8 in the passenger compartment fuse box (C588-3) on
a green wire. Fuse 8 supplies ignition power from the passenger compartment
fuse box (C589-9) to the instrument pack (C233-4), also on a green wire.
Where fitted, a green wire also supplies power to the instrument illumination
dimmer (C201-3).
4.118
FREELANDER 98MY

For operation of the instruments and of the warning lamps related to the
exterior lamps, a common earth is provided from the instrument pack (C233-1)
on a black wire.
For operation of the odometer illumination and of the instrument pack
background illumination, an earth is connected between the instrument pack
(C233-8) and the earth header joint (C017-5 for LH drive; C018-3 for RH drive),
via the header joint and the passenger compartment fuse box. On vehicles
without an illumination dimmer, a black wire is used. On vehicles with an
illumination dimmer, a black/yellow wire is used between the instrument pack
and the illumination dimmer (C201-1), then black wire is used from the
illumination dimmer (C201-2) to earth.
Speedometer
The speedometer and integrated odometer are controlled by a road speed
signal input to the instrument pack (C230-4), from either the gearbox mounted
speed sensor (C195-3) on a white/orange wire (non ABS models) or the ABS
ECU (ABS models, see ABS circuit for details), also on a white/orange wire.
Engine coolant temperature gauge
The Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) gauge is controlled by a signal from
the temperature gauge sensor. A green/blue wire connects the instrument pack
(C233-2) to the temperature gauge sensor (C165-1), which is earthed through
the sensor housing. The electrical resistance across the temperature gauge
sensor is proportional to temperature, so the voltage of the control signal and
the resultant deflection of the gauge pointer are directly related to coolant
temperature.
FREELANDER 98MY
4.119

Fuel gauge
The fuel gauge is controlled by a signal from the float operated sender unit in
the fuel tank. A green/black wire connects the instrument pack (C230-13) to the
sender unit (C114-3). The sender unit (C114-4) is earthed through earth
header joint (C551-3) by a black wire. Movement of the sender unit float arm
varies the electrical resistance across the sender unit, so the voltage of the
control signal and the resultant deflection of the gauge pointer are directly
related to the level of fuel in the tank.
Tachometer
The tachometer uses an engine speed signal received by the instrument pack
(C233-14) from the ignition coil (C156-1) (petrol models) or ECM (C159-25)
(diesel models) on a white/black wire. The speed signal is translated into
engine speed by the tachometer.
