Inspection and verification (Freelander 2)

CAUTION: Diagnostics by substituting a component from another vehicle is NOT permitted. Substituting control modules does not guarantee confirmation of the fault and, in addition, may cause additional faults in the vehicle being tested and/or in the vehicle from which the modules are removed.

1. Visually inspect for obvious signs of mechanical and electrical faults and system integrity.

Electrical factors:

• Fuses (refer to electrical manual)
• Wiring harness
• Correctness of electrical connectors connection
• Loose or corroded connector(s)
• Wiring of fiber optic wiring harness
• Correct connection of optical connectors
• Correct placement of optical connectors (order)
• Correct assembly of optical connectors (branch, etc.)
• Fiber damage (friction, abrasive wear, kinks, cuts, etc.)

2. If an obvious cause for the problem you identified or the customer described is found, correct it (if possible) before moving on to further action.
