4	Battery

The 110 Ah/850 A EN battery is located in the engine compartment, on the passenger side. It sits in a tray and is secured with clamp plates and bolts.

The battery terminal posts allow for the battery cables to be connected with clamp type connections.

The battery is semi-sealed. Each casing has a vent to allow for thermal expansion and to vent oxygen and hydrogen gases, which are produced under certain charging conditions.

The battery incorporates an integral temperature compensated hydrometer to provide a visual indication of the relative density and level of the electrolyte. The indicator shows different colors to show battery condition as follows

GREEN - shows that the battery is charged and in a serviceable condition
DARK (turning to black) - shows that the battery is in a low state of charge and requires recharging
CLEAR or YELLOW - the battery is no longer serviceable and must be replaced.

If the battery shows CLEAR or YELLOW the battery has an internal fault. Do not attempt to charge or jump-start the vehicle with the battery in this condition.

When removing the battery, ensure the alarm is disarmed and the ignition is switched off. Always disconnect the negative terminal first and then the positive. When refitting the battery, always fit the positive terminal first followed by the negative.

If the battery requires recharging, always use an approved constant current charger, designed for lead-calcium batteries. DO NOT use a fast charger, as permanent damage to the battery may occur.

Scheme 3: TRANSPORTATION CUT-OFF DEVICE

Item Number	Description
1	Electrical power disconnected
2	Electrical power connected

During production of the vehicle a transportation cut-off switch is connected in series between the battery negative terminal and the battery ground cable, to minimize battery drain during vehicle storage and delivery. The transportation cut-off switch provides a convenient method of disconnecting power from all of the electrical systems on the vehicle, but allows power to be easily restored to start and drive the vehicle during loading and unloading.

Operating the transportation cut-off switch generates fault codes in some system diagnostics. The fault codes are cleared, and the transportation cut-off switch is removed, during the Pre Delivery Inspection (PDI), prior to handover of the vehicle to the customer.

JUNCTION BOXES

A number of junction boxes are used to distribute power throughout the vehicle. For more information on fuse ratings and circuits protected, refer to the Electrical Circuit Diagrams.

AUXILIARY JUNCTION BOX

Note. The Auxiliary Junction Box (AJB) is fitted to diesel vehicles only.

The AJB is mounted on the engine bulkhead, behind the battery. The AJB receives its main power supply from the battery and provides circuit protection for the glowplug system.

BATTERY JUNCTION BOX

The battery junction box (BJB) is located in the e-box, on the right-hand (RH) side of the engine compartment. The battery junction box (BJB) receives its main power supply from the battery via the central junction box (CJB) and contains fusible links, blade fuses and relays.

CENTRAL JUNCTION BOX

The central junction box (CJB) is located behind the glove box and receives its main power supply from the battery. The central junction box (CJB) contains fusible links, blade fuses and relays. The central junction box (CJB) also provides the main power supply to the battery junction box (BJB) and the rear junction box.

REAR JUNCTION BOX

The rear junction box is located on the right-hand (RH) side of the luggage compartment, behind the side trim casing. The rear junction box contains blade fuses and relays, and receives its main power supply from the central junction box (CJB).

PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION

For a detailed description of the battery system and operation, refer to the relevant Description and Operation section of the workshop manual. REFER to: BATTERY AND CABLES

INSPECTION AND VERIFICATION

CAUTION

Diagnosis by substitution from a donor vehicle is NOT acceptable. Substitution of control modules does not guarantee confirmation of a fault and may also cause additional faults in the vehicle being checked and/or the donor vehicle.

Verify the customer concern.
Visually inspect for obvious signs of mechanical or electrical damage. Visual Inspection Mechanical Electrical Generator Drive belt Drive belt tensioner Generator pulley Check the security of the generator fixings Generator Battery Battery connections Starter motor Harnesses and connectors Fuses Charge warning lamp function Engine Control Module (ECM)
If an obvious cause for an observed or reported concern is found, correct the cause (if possible) before proceeding to the next step.
If the cause is not visually evident check for Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) and refer to the DTC Index.

DTC INDEX

Note. Generic scan tools may not read the codes listed, or may read only five digit codes. Match the five digits from the scan tool to the first five digits of the seven digit code listed to identify the fault (the last two digits give additional information read by the manufacturer-approved diagnostic system).

Note. When performing electrical voltage or resistance tests, always use a digital multimeter (DMM) accurate to three decimal places, and with an up-to-date calibration certificate. When testing resistance, always take the resistance of the DMM leads into account.

Note. Check and rectify basic faults before beginning diagnostic routines involving pinpoint tests.

Note. If DTCs are recorded and, after performing the pinpoint tests, a fault is not present, an intermittent concern may be the cause. Always check for loose connections and corroded terminals.

For a list of Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) that could be logged on this vehicle, please refer to General Information

Flooded Battery Care Point

If the vehicle is equipped with a flooded battery, ensure the replacement battery is a flooded battery of the same specification (cold cranking amperage (CCA) / amp hour rating (Ah)) as the original battery

Under no circumstances should you fit a flooded battery to a vehicle that originally had an AGM battery, unless formally instructed by Jaguar/Land Rover

AGM Battery Care Point

If the vehicle is equipped with an absorbed glass mat (AGM) battery, ensure the replacement battery is a AGM battery of the same specification (cold cranking amperage (CCA) / amp hour rating (Ah)) as the original battery, unless formally instructed by Jaguar/Land Rover
