INFORMATION FAULT DIAGNOSTIC EQUIPMENT
TESTBOOK
Todays Land Rover Vehicles are equipped with a
large amount of electronics to provide the best
performance of the vehicles systems.
Diagnostic equipment named TESTBOOK is available
to expand the diagnostic abilities of the dealer
workshop. This repair manual is produced with
Testbook in mind.
Features of Testbook include :- Fully upgradable
support for the technician. Structured diagnostics to
accommodate all skill levels. Touch screen operation.
Direct print out of screen information and test results.
ELECTRICAL TROUBLESHOOTING MANUAL
The Electrical Troubleshooting Manual is a separate
publication that is intended for use by trained Land
Rover technicians as an aid to diagnosing electrical
concerns.
It provides circuit diagrams, system diagnosis flow
charts, electrical component location tables, electrical
component location views and circuit operation
details.READING THIS MANUAL
This manual is divided into sections shown on the
contents page, alongside a range of icons, familiar to
service technicians.
Relevant information is contained within each of these
sections. These are further divided into the following
sub-sections which appear at the foot of each page :-
Description and operation.
Fault diagnosis.
Adjustment.
Repair.
Overhaul.
Specifications, Torque.
Service tools.
To avoid repeating information through the sections,
where part of the repair operation impacts on another
section, a cross reference is given to direct the reader
to where the information is sited.
For example:
The maintenance section states the need to renew
V8i drive belt. A cross reference sites this information
in: Section: V8i Engine
- Sub-section: Repairs
- Heading: Drive belt renew.
Sections that contain derivatives such as engines are
further separated within that section.
American terminology.
A few words used in this manual differ to words used
in America. Where this occurs the American word is
placed inside brackets. For example: bonnet [hood],
wing [fender], ramp [hoist].
