FAULT DIAGNOSIS STEERING DAMPER
The power steering system, as well as reducing the
effort required to manoeuvre the vehicle when
parking, also helps to dampen any deflections of the
road wheels, being transmitted back to the steering
wheel.
When operating the vehicle off road, the road wheels
are often deflected by ruts and boulders causing the
steering wheel to turn left and right. This phenomenon
is known as 'steering kickback'. To subdue the effects
of 'steering kickback', a hydraulic damper is fitted in
the steering linkage between the track rod and the
differential casing. The damper, which offers the same
resistance in extension and compression, is sealed for
life.
Steering damper check
Check the condition operation of the hydraulic
steering damper as follows:
Check procedure
1.Inspect damper for casing damage or leaks.
2.Clamp one end of the damper horizontally in a
vice using soft jaws. Compress and extend the
unit by hand. Resistance should be equal in both
directions.
3.If it is felt that the unit is outside acceptable
limits, fit a new steering damperSTEERING FAULTS

FAULT DIAGNOSIS Symptom :-
Steering excessively light/sensitive. Excessive
freeplay at steering wheel.
1.Are steering box adjustments correct?
NO -
See Adjustment, Power Steering Box
WARNING: Adjustments of steering box
should not be required while in warranty
period. If box is within warranty, it must be

Symptom :-
Steering vibration, road wheel shimmy - wobble.
Vibration through the steering linkage powerful
enough to induce high frequency oscillation of the
steering wheel, is generally caused by out of balance
road wheels. However there are a number of other
possible causes of this symptom which if severe, may
be described as shimmy or wobble. Regardless of the
terminology used by the owner/driver to describe the
symptoms, the following diagnostic checks should be
carried out in the order presented.
1.Check the tyres and balance of the road wheels.

BRAKES
1
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION BRAKES
Discovery vehicles have servo assisted brake
systems and the option of an anti-lock brake system.
Information in this section refers to components
relevant to both brake systems. Where the system
components are different they are referred to as ABS
or NON ABS
BRAKE SYSTEM NON ABS
Description
The servo assisted hydraulic braking system is the
dual line type, incorporating primary and secondary
hydraulic circuits.
NOTE: References made to primary or
secondary do not imply main service
brakes or emergency brakes but denote
hydraulic line identification.
The brake pedal is connected to a vacuum assisted
mechanical servo which in turn operates a tandem
master cylinder. The front disc brake calipers each
house four pistons, these pistons are fed by the
secondary hydraulic circuit. The rear disc brake
calipers each house two pistons, these are fed by the
primary hydraulic circuit via a pressure reducing valve.
A brake fluid level switch is incorporated into the
reservoir cap assembly, the switch will immediately
illuminate a warning light in the instrument binnacle
indicating low fluid or sudden fluid loss.
The brake fluid reservoir is divided, the section closest
to the servo feeds the primary circuit and the section
furthest from the servo feeds the secondary circuit.
Under normal operating conditions both the primary
and secondary circuits operate simultaneously on
brake pedal application. In the event of a failure in the
primary circuit the secondary circuit will still function. If
the secondary circuit fails the primary circuit will still
function. The brake pedal travel will be longer in the
event of a half system failure.If the servo should fail, both hydraulic circuits will still
function but would require greater pedal effort due to
the lack of vacuum assistance. The hand operated
parking brake acts on a brake drum at the rear of the
transfer gearbox and is completely independent of the
hydraulic circuits.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION System description
The brake system consists of dual hydraulic circuits in
a front - rear split. That is individual circuits to front
and rear axles.
Wheelspeed signals are provided by the fitting of
exciter rings to axles and speed sensors.
An ABS stop light switch is fitted to provide a braking
signal to the ECU as well as operate the stop lights.
Electrical wiring is provided as necessary with system
relays and fuses. Discovery Electrical Troubleshooting
Manual gives the location and wiring circuits of these
components.
Visual warning of system malfunction is provided via a
warning light in the instrument panel.
Hydraulic circuit ABS
Key
A = Primary hydraulic circuit
B = Secondary hydraulic circuit
C = Pressure reducing valve
D = ABS ModulatorABS System operation
During normal braking the feel of the brake pedal on
vehicles equipped with ABS will be the same as that
on non ABS vehicles. During ABS cycling the driver
will experience feedback in the form of a pulsating
brake pedal and solenoid/pump motor noise from the
Modulator.
The system is fully automatic in operation both on and
off road, and will only act when the ECU detects that
ABS cycling is necessary. The ECU continually
monitors the operation of the system.
When starting the ABS system will go through a series
of self checks, including a check of the solenoid
valves/pump motor.
WARNING LIGHT
The warning light will be on during the self check
(1.3-2 secs). If no faults are stored in the memory the
light goes out for 0.5sec,then comes on again. It will
then remain on until the vehicle is driven faster than 7
kph/5mph. This is the only time that the light will be on
without indicating a problem.
Any faults detected by the ECU will cause the warning
light to illuminate indicating that the vehicle may not
have full ABS control.
70BRAKES

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION Brakes applied
When the brake pedal is depressed the pedal pushrod
operates valve C situated in the plastic diaphragm hub
9 and 10. Inital depression of the the brake pedal,
push rod 6 and plunger 7 compress a rubber pad 8.
This slight movement causes valve C to close port D
sealing off the vacuum to chambers 2/4 and allows
atmospheric pressure to enter the chambers through
the air filter E.
With depression in chambers 1/3 and air pressure in
chambers 2/4 the servo hub will apply the brakes via
the master cylinder push rod 13.Atmospheric pressure over the large area of the
diaphragms multiples the force applied to the master
cylinder piston, to provide the power assistance. If the
brake pedal is only partially depressed, the servo hub,
diaphragms and master cylinder push rod will stop
moving, when valve C comes to rest on the plunger 7.
At this point the valve will balance the pressure in all
the chambers, to the applied effort at the pedal and
provide proportional braking.
It is only when the brakes are fully applied that the
valve does not balance the pressures in all the
chambers, but ensures that maximum available
depression is in chambers 1/3 and full atmospheric
pressure enters chambers 2/4.
When the brake pedal is released, the pressure in all
chambers is equalised and the servo is returned to the
rest position by spring 12.

FAULT DIAGNOSIS ABS FAULT DIAGNOSIS
If a fault has occurred, or has been identified by ECU
self diagnostic function and ABS warning light is
illuminated. The system and components must be
checked to locate and rectify fault, using Testbook
diagnostics.
NOTE: If warning lamp has indicated a
fault in system, and no fault code has been
stored in memory, cause of fault is:
a) Failure in electrical supply
b) Bad ECU ground
c) Faulty warning light relay
d) ECU not connected
Before commencing fault diagnosis procedure
following items must be checked:
1.Inspect all exposed cables for damage or
abrasion.
2.Check ground on ABS system.
3.Battery - state of charge.
4.Check hub end-float.
5.All ABS fuses and electrical connections.
Fault rectification
1.Complete harness should be replaced if faults
are found in wiring harness.
2.DO NOT use unspecified cables or connectors,
as this could jeopardise safe function of ABS.
3.DO NOT attempt to open sealed 35 way
connector to ECU.FAULT DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE
NOTE: If ABS warning light illuminates due
to large sensor air gap, fault will be
retained by the ECU memory. Where wheel
sensors have been pushed fully home prior to
test, The ECU will indicate a fault that has been
rectified.
NOTE: After any steering adjustment,
bearing replacement/adjustment, brake
disc replacement: Check hub end-float and
sensor clearance.
