The odometer display can show 6 digits and distance up to 999,999 miles or kilometers. The value is stored in a secure area of the erasable programmable read-only memory (EEPROM) instrument panel every 2 kilometers of vehicle movement. When the ignition is turned off, the backup odometer values are also stored in the following modules:
- CJB
- ABS module
- ECM
- Secondary restraint system control module (RCM)
- Driver door module
- Front Passenger Door Module
The odometer values in these modules are sent to the instrument cluster over the medium speed CAN bus within the first 2 seconds after the vehicle enters power mode 6. If the received values are the same, the instrument cluster decides that the odometer value has not been falsified. If any value differs by more than 300 kilometers from the displayed value, the instrument panel generates a diagnostic trouble code (DTC) and shows a larger value. The DTC can be retrieved using a Land Rover approved diagnostic system.
Vehicle operating modes
The car has four operating modes that allow you to enable and disable certain functions:
- Normal (nor)
- Factory (fact)
- Transport (transp)
- Emergency (crash)
The current operating mode of the vehicle, shown in parentheses above, is displayed on the odometer for 5 seconds when the vehicle enters power mode 6 for the first time.
NOTE: 'Nor' is only shown on the odometer when the vehicle operating mode is switched to normal from any of the other vehicle operating modes. Under no other conditions is 'Nor' shown.
Vehicle operating mode can be changed using the Land Rover approved diagnostic system.
Gear position
The gear position indicator shows the current position of the automatic transmission selector lever. During normal operation, the display will show P for park, R for reverse, N for neutral, or D for drive. When the transmission is in 'CommandShift™' mode, the odometer shows the currently selected manual gear: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6.
In the event of a CAN bus failure or transmission overheat condition detected in the TCM, the odometer will show an 'E' in the same area of the display as the 'CommandShift™' gear selected.
Auxiliary restraint system warning light
If the instrument panel detects that the auxiliary restraint system warning lamp (SRS) fails, the odometer will display 'SrS' and a DTC will be generated. The DTC can be retrieved from the instrument panel using the Land Rover approved diagnostic system.
Service Interval Display
Service Interval Display (SII) informs the driver when the next vehicle maintenance should be performed. The instrument panel monitors the distance the vehicle has traveled and the time elapsed since the last service.
If the distance traveled by the vehicle is a trigger event for SII, the odometer will show 'SERVICE' accompanied by a distance specifier (or 'MILES' or 'KM' depending on instrument cluster specification). In addition, a distance counter will be displayed in the upper right corner of the odometer. If the moment at which service is required is missed, the counter will show a negative value. Once activated, SII is displayed for 5 seconds when the vehicle enters power mode 6.
If the trigger event for the SII is time, the odometer will show 'SERVICE' followed by a clock symbol. In addition, the counter will be displayed in the upper right corner of the odometer. If the moment at which service is required is missed, the counter will show a negative value. And again after activating the SII is shown for 5 seconds when the car enters power mode 6.
If both distance and time counts are enabled, the SII will display distance information for 5 seconds and then time information for 5 seconds.
The SII will need to be reconfigured after service has been completed. This can be done using a Land Rover approved diagnostic system or by following a manual reset procedure. The manual override mode is entered by executing the following program:
- Press and hold the trip odometer reset button while the vehicle is stationary and in a power mode that is less than 6.
- While holding the trip odometer reset button, enter power mode 6 in the vehicle.
- Release trip odometer reset button within 10 seconds to enter power mode 6
If the manual reset mode has been entered successfully, the odometer will display 'dISt' or 'DATE', depending on which trigger event was activated.
To clear the 'dISt' trigger event, press and hold the trip odometer reset button for more than 5 seconds within 10 seconds of entering manual reset mode. If everything went well, the odometer will show 'RESET' for 5 seconds. If the start date event has not been activated, then the odometer will show 'END'.
NOTE: The distance trigger will not reset if the distance the vehicle has traveled is less than 20% of the value for the next service interval.
If a date trigger event has been enabled, then the odometer will show 'DATE'. To clear the trigger event, press and hold the trip odometer reset button for more than 5 seconds within 10 seconds after 'DATE' is displayed. If everything went well, the odometer will show 'RESET' for 5 seconds and then 'END'. The odometer will now exit reset mode.
