INTRODUCTION

RANGE ROVER 1.5

Battery Charging

Only recharge the battery with it removed from the vehicle. Always ensure any battery

charging area is well ventilated and that every precaution is taken to avoid naked flames and

sparks.

The New Range Rover is fitted with a lead calcium battery, and can only be charged using

equipment specifically designed to operate on this type of battery. Refer to the Land Rover

Equipment bulletin for a list of recommended battery charging equipment.

Disciplines

Switch off ignition prior to making any connection or disconnection in the system as electrical

surge caused by disconnecting 'live' connections can damage electrical 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 electrical 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 testing, and periodically during testing, touch a good earth, i.e. cigar

lighter socket, to discharge body static as some electrical 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 during production. Should connectors of this type be

disturbed, repaired, or replaced, a grease of this type, available under part number BAU

5811, should again be applied. Do not apply grease to any connectors that do not have

grease applied as standard.

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.
