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.

Mechanical elements	Electrical elements
Fuel level (minimum four liters for refueling warning to be triggered) Fuel contamination Engine oil level Coolant level Fuel system Air intake system Vacuum system	Wiring harness Electrical plug connector(s) Fuse Box(s) Relay

2. If an obvious cause for the problem you have identified or the customer has described is found, correct it (if possible) before proceeding with further actions.

3. If the cause is not visually obvious, check the symptom and refer to the Symptom Chart or check for DTCs and refer to the Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Index.
