TRANSFER BOX - LT230SE
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 41-13
Description
General
The LT 230SE transfer box is mounted at the rear of the gearbox and transmits drive via high or low reduction ratios
to the front and rear axles via the propeller shafts. The high/low ratios are 1.211:1 and 3.32:1 respectively.
Transfer boxes fitted to this model have the prefixes 41D and 42D to the unit serial number. Prefix 41D denotes that
the unit is not fitted with interlock whilst 42D denotes that interlock is fitted.
Vehicles up to 03 model year – Whilst similar to LT230Q transfer boxes fitted to other models, the LT230SE transfer
box has certain engineering modifications incorporated which are as follows:
lUprated torque capacity
lModified front and rear output and cross shaft housings
lIntermediate gear bearing pre-load now controlled by a selective, non-collapsible spacer
lSpeedometer drive and driven gears not fitted for this application
lModified high/low sleeve
lModified front output flange and mud shield
lDifferential lock fitted to certain vehicles, but no longer driver operated
lFixed setting of differential lock warning lamp switch on vehicles fitted with differential lock
Vehicles from 03 model year – The LT230SE transfer box is as described above for vehicles up to 03 model year
with the following modifications:
The following items are introduced on vehicles from 03 model year
lRibs added to main casing to reduce operating noise
lRevised machining process for intermediate gears to reduce operating noise
lBearing retaining nut on the differential carrier has patchlock added to the threads
lInterlock solenoid moved from main casing to selector lever assembly
lIntermediate gears modified with machined internal shoulder and bearing circlips deleted
lDriver operated differential lock
lHigh/Low selector shaft fitted with spring assist
lExisting differential lock switch replaced by 2 new switches of improved design with the additional switch installed
adjacent to the existing switch location.
Construction
The transfer box comprises three main assemblies; the main casing, the front output housing and the rear output
housing. Both output housings and all cover plates are sealed to the main casing by sealant; mud and water ingress
being prevented by mud shields located on the output flanges.
Main casing
The main casing carries the mainshaft input gear, the intermediate gears and the differential, together with the high/
low range gears, selector shaft and fork. The front and rear output housings are bolted to either side of the main
casing.
Transmission neutral sensor
A transmission neutral sensor is fitted on automatic gearbox vehicles for North America and Japan. The sensor is
connected to the BCU and is normally in the open position. The sensor provides an earth path for the BCU which then
interprets the signal and activates an audible warning generated by the IDM if neutral is selected on the transfer box
when the ignition is on.
Transfer box interlock solenoid - Automatic gearbox vehicles
An interlock solenoid is fitted for North America and Japan. The solenoid is located on the top of the transfer box main
casing on vehicles up to 03 model year or on the selector lever assembly on vehicles from 03 model year. The
solenoid is connected to the transfer box relay which, in turn, is controlled by the IDM. The purpose of the solenoid is
to prevent neutral being selected on the transfer box when the ignition key is removed, thereby locking the box in
either high or low ratio.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 41-17

2High/Low range cable

only
On vehicles fitted with a differential lock, the high/low range selector lever as fitted on previous models also
incorporates the differential lock selector on vehicles from 03 model year.
The lever can be moved forwards or backwards to select high, neutral or low range or sideways to select differential
lock engaged or disengaged, on vehicles with differential lock fitted.
The selector lever assembly comprises an aluminium casting with bosses for location of the two cables, the selector
lever mechanism and a housing for the interlock solenoid (if fitted). The upper face of the casting has threaded holes
which allow for the attachment of the casting to the mounting plate which is attached to the transmission tunnel.
A boss at the front provides location for the differential lock cable. The cable is attached to a lever which in turn is
attached to the selector lever. Movement of the selector lever is passed via the lever to the cable which moves the
differential lock selector shaft.
A second boss provides for the location of the high/low range cable. The cable is attached to a plate which moves in
a forward or rearward direction with the selector lever. On North American and Japanese specification models, plate
movement is prevented by an interlock solenoid when the ignition key is not in the ignition.
When fitted, the interlock solenoid is located on the right hand side of the selector lever casting. The solenoid is fitted
into a cast housing in the casting and retained with a circlip. Sealant is applied over the circlip to seal the solenoid in
the housing to prevent the ingress of dirt and moisture. The solenoid performs the same function as on previous
models, preventing the selection of neutral on the transfer box when the ignition key is not in the ignition.
A setting procedure is required for both the differential lock cable and the high/low range cable.

10Position indicators
The selector lever assembly consists of a lever and a cover attached to a base. The base is located on a gasket and
secured to the transmission tunnel. The lever is hinged to the base. A latch in the lever engages with detents in the
base to provide the lever positions P, R, N, D, 3, 2, 1. The latch is disengaged by pressing a release button on the
lever knob. Except for lever movement between positions D and 3, the button must be pressed before the lever can
be moved. In some markets, vehicles incorporate an interlock solenoid at the bottom of the lever, which prevents the
lever being moved from P unless the ignition switch is in position II and the foot brake is applied. If the battery
becomes flat, the interlock system will prevent selector lever movement and removal of the ignition key.
The cover incorporates lever position indicators and the mode switch. The lever position indicators illuminate to show
the position of the selector lever. Illumination is controlled by the Body Control Unit (BCU). The mode switch is a non-
latching hinged switch that, when pressed, connects an earth to the EAT ECU to request a change of mode.
An electrical connector at the rear of the cover connects the selector lever assembly to the vehicle wiring.
Selector cable
The selector cable is a Bowden type cable that connects the selector lever assembly to a selector lever on the
gearbox. 'C' clips secure the ends of the outer cable to brackets on the selector lever assembly and the selector lever.
The inner cable is adjustable at the connection of the inner cable with the gearbox selector lever.

AUTOMATIC GEARBOX - ZF4HP22 - 24
44-10 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
The lock-up and brake clutches are operated by pressurised transmission fluid from the valve block in the sump. A
manual valve and four solenoid valves, also known as Motorised Valves (MV), control the supply of pressurised
transmission fluid from the valve block:
lThe manual valve controls the supply in P, R, N and D.
lSolenoid valves MV 1 and MV 2 control the supplies that operate the brake clutches for shift control.
lSolenoid valve MV 3 controls the supply that operates the lock-up clutch.
lSolenoid valve MV 4 modulates the pressure of the supplies to the brake clutches, to control shift quality.
Operation of the manual valve is controlled by the selector lever assembly. In the gearbox, a selector shaft engages
with the manual valve. The selector shaft is connected to the selector lever assembly via the selector cable and a
selector lever on the left side of the gearbox. The selector shaft also operates a mechanism that locks the output shaft
when P is selected.
Operation of the solenoid valves is controlled by the EAT ECU.
An output shaft speed sensor in the gearbox housing outputs a signal to the EAT ECU. The EAT ECU compares
output shaft speed with engine speed to determine the engaged gear, and output shaft speed with vehicle speed to
confirm the range selected on the transfer box.
A bayonet lock electrical connector in the gearbox casing, to the rear of the selector lever, connects the solenoid
valves and the output shaft speed sensor to the vehicle wiring.
A pressed steel sump encloses the valve block and collects transmission fluid draining from the gearbox housing. A
suction pipe and filter on the underside of the valve block connect to the inlet side of the fluid pump. A magnet is
installed in the sump to collect any magnetic particles that may be present. A level plug and a drain plug are installed
in the sump for servicing.
Rear extension housing
The rear extension housing provides the interface between the gearbox housing and the transfer box. A splined
extension shaft, secured to the gearbox output shaft by a bolt, transmits the drive from the gearbox to the transfer
box. A seal in the rear of the housing prevents leakage past the extension shaft. A breather pipe, attached to the left
side of the rear extension housing, ventilates the interior of the gearbox and rear extension housings to atmosphere.
The open end of the breather pipe is located in the engine compartment at the right front corner of the engine sump
on gearboxes fitted to early vehicles and is clipped to the top of the gearbox on later vehicles.
Gearbox power flows
The following Figures show the power flow through the gearbox for each forward gear when D is selected, and for
reverse. The key to the Item numbers on the Figures, and in parenthesis in the accompanying text, can be found on
the 'Sectioned view of gearbox' Figure, above.
1st Gear (D selected)
Clutches (4) and (11) are engaged. The front planet gear carrier of gear set (9) locks against the gearbox housing
through freewheel (15) when the engine powers the vehicle, and freewheels when the vehicle is coasting. Gear set
(10) rotates as a solid unit with the front planet gear carrier. In 1st gear hold brake clutch (8) is applied to provide
overrun braking.
