Default/Limp Home Strategy

If a fault occurs with the transfer box, the transfer box ECU or one of the required input signals, i.e.; road speed signal, the ECU records an error code and the transfer box low range MOUNTAIN symbol in the instrument pack flashes permanently.

As a default setting, the ECU will attempt to engage high or low range in order to allow the vehicle to be driven to a Land Rover dealer for repair. To ensure a range is engaged, the ignition must be switched off and then on again (timed shift performs this without ignition cycling). This causes the ECU to power the actuator and engage the previously selected range.
