Odometer (Freelander 2)

The odometer is located in the speedometer and shows the total distance the car has traveled. This is calculated using the same signal that is used for the trip meter.

The odometer display can show a 6-digit value and a distance of up to 999,999 miles or kilometers. The value is stored in a protected area of the instrument cluster's Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory (EEPROM) every 2 kilometers of vehicle travel. When the ignition is turned off, backup odometer values are also stored in the following modules:

• CJB
• ABS module
• ECM
• Restraint Control Module (RCM)
• Driver's door module
• Front Passenger Door Module

The odometer values in these modules are sent to the instrument cluster via the medium speed CAN bus within the first 2 seconds of the vehicle entering power mode 6. If the values received are the same, the instrument cluster decides that the odometer value has not been tampered with. If any value differs by more than 300 kilometres from the displayed value, the instrument cluster generates a diagnostic trouble code (DTC) and displays the higher value. The DTC can be retrieved using the 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 vehicle's current operating mode, shown in parentheses above, is displayed on the odometer for 5 seconds when the vehicle first enters power mode 6.

NOTE: 'Nor' is displayed on the odometer only when the vehicle's operating mode is changed to Normal from any of the vehicle's other operating modes. 'Nor' is not displayed under any other conditions.

The vehicle's operating mode can be changed using a 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 will show the currently selected manual gear: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6.

If there is a CAN bus failure or the TCM detects a transmission overheating situation, the odometer will display the letter 'E' in the same area of the display where the 'CommandShift™' gear selection information is shown.

Additional restraint system indicator light

If the instrument cluster detects that the Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) warning lamp is failing, the odometer will display 'SrS' and a DTC will be generated. The DTC can be retrieved from the instrument cluster using the Land Rover approved diagnostic system.

Service interval display

The Service Interval Display (SII) informs the driver when the vehicle is due for service. The instrument cluster monitors the distance the vehicle has traveled and the time elapsed since the last service.

If the distance travelled by the vehicle is the trigger event for SII, the odometer will display 'SERVICE' followed by a distance specifier (or 'MILES' or 'KM' depending on the instrument cluster specification). In addition, a distance counter will be displayed in the upper right corner of the odometer. If the service requirement is missed, the counter will display a negative value. Once activated, SII is displayed for 5 seconds when the vehicle enters power mode 6.



If the trigger event for SII is time, the odometer will display 'SERVICE' accompanied by a clock symbol. In addition, a counter will be displayed in the upper right corner of the odometer. If the time at which service is required is missed, the counter will display a negative value. Again, after activation, SII is displayed for 5 seconds when the vehicle enters power mode 6.

If both distance and time counting are enabled, the SII will display distance information for 5 seconds, then time information for 5 seconds.

After the service has been carried out, the SII will require re-tuning. This can be done using a Land Rover approved diagnostic system or by following the manual re-tuning procedure. Manual re-tuning mode is entered by running the following program:

• Press and hold the trip meter reset button when the vehicle is stationary and in a power mode that is less than 6.
• While holding down the trip meter reset button, set the vehicle to power mode 6.
• Release the trip meter reset button within 10 seconds of entering 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 successful, the odometer will display 'RESET' for 5 seconds. If the date trigger event was not activated, the odometer will display 'END'.

NOTE: The distance trigger event will not reset if the distance the vehicle has traveled is less than 20% of the value for the next service interval.

If the date trigger event has been activated, then the odometer will display 'DATE'. To clear the trigger event, press and hold the trip meter reset button for more than 5 seconds within 10 seconds of 'DATE' being displayed. If successful, the odometer will display 'RESET' for 5 seconds and then 'END'. The odometer will now exit reset mode.
