DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION Alarm Sounders
1.Battery Backed Up Sounder (BBUS)
2.Alarm sounder
Two types of alarm sounder are available, dependant on the vehicle market configuration.
A Battery Backed-Up Sounder (BBUS) is used in some markets and located in the LH front wing, behind the
headlamp. This is a tamper proof sounder with its own power supply which allows it to continue operating even if
disconnected from the vehicle power supply. The BBUS is connected to a permanent battery supply via fuse 7 in
the under seat fuse box. Two further connections are made to the anti-theft alarm ECU and a fourth connection is
to an earth header. If the BBUS is disconnected without first being disarmed by the anti-theft alarm ECU, it will
operate for 4.5 minutes.
To disarm the BBUS, when the battery is to be disconnected for instance, the ignition must be turned on to
position II and back to the off position , after which a 17 second delay is initiated to allow the battery or BBUS
connector to be disconnected. If the BBUS sounds, it can be disarmed by unlocking the vehicle with the remote
handset.
Where a BBUS is not specified, a standard vehicle horn is used for the alarm sounder and is located in the LH
front wing, behind the headlamp. The sounder is operated by an alarm relay which is controlled by the anti-theft
alarm ECU. The relay receives a permanent battery supply via fusible link 6 in the under seat fuse box. The relay
coil is connected to the anti-theft alarm ECU which provides an earth for the coil when horn operation is required.
This operates the relay contacts and supplies battery voltage to the sounder, causing it to operate.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION For 02MY a new fascia console has been introduced to accommodate the additional switches for electric windows
etc.
The console comprises a plastic moulding secured to the fascia with five screws. The new console allows existing
switches to be repositioned and has provided the opportunity to commonise the switches with other Land Rover
models. The switches and components located in the console are as follows:
Cigar lighter (if fitted)
Headlamp levelling control
LH and RH heated front seat switches (if fitted)
LH and RH front window lift switches
Front fog lamp switch (if fitted)
Rear fog lamp switch
Rear wash/wipe switch
Rear wiper switch
Hazard warning lamp switch
Heated rear window switch
Heated front screen switch (if fitted)
A central cut-out in the console provides for the installation of the radio, where fitted, or a coin tray for markets
without a standard radio installation.
