ISSUE ‘4’ CHANGES ARE HIGHLIGHTED IN GRAY
SECTION: 205
‘Transmission Fault’ Displayed with DTC P186D Stored
AFFECTED VEHICLE RANGE:
| LR3 (LA) | VIN: Model Year: | 5A000360 – 9A513325 2005 – 2009 |
| Range Rover Sport (LS) | VIN: Model Year: | 6A900129 – 7A999999 7A100000 – 9A215620 2006 – 2009 |
| Range Rover (LM) | VIN: Model Year: | 7A239036 – AA307231 2007 – 2010 |
CONDITION SUMMARY:
Situation: The driver warning message ‘Transmission Fault Stop Safely’ may be displayed in the instrument cluster message center, Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) P186D and possibly P080A / P0806 may be stored in the electronic rear differential control module, and the Dynamic Suspension may lower. These issues may be caused by the Electronic Torque Managed (ETM) rear differential motor being energized while the motor brake is still partially engaged, resulting in mechanical wear of the motor assembly which may lead to a stuck actuator and DTC P186D.
NOTE: After the new differential motor has been installed, it is imperative that the new software is downloaded to the Rear differential control module. Failure to carry out this instruction will result in a future repeat repair. Once the new software has been downloaded, the software stored in the Rear differential control module should show 7H42-4C045-A(D) or a higher alphabetical character for vehicles pre-2010MY and 9W83-4C045-A(D) or a higher alphabetical character for vehicles 2010MYonwards.
NOTE: To complete the repair the new software must be downloaded and the on demand self test (ODST) concluded. SDD will run the ODST automatically as part of the software download to the Rear differential control module; follow all on-screen instructions to ensure the ODST is successfully completed. The ODST configures the Rear differential control module to ensure that it knows where the clutch biting point is internal to the axle assembly. After the ODST has completed successfully, clear DTCs and perform an ignition cycle; read DTCs and confirm none are present. If DTCs remain, follow normal SDD diagnostic procedures.
Action: In the event of a customer concern of the above, refer to the Repair Procedure outlined below to replace the rear differential locking motor assembly and update the Rear differential control module software.
PARTS:
| NOTE: Rear differential motor service kit part number LR032711 may be used only if LR032712 (remanufactured component) is not available. |

JLR Symptom Driven Diagnostics (SDD) for Independent Repairers: Diagnostic Software / Module programming subscriptions – without security access – can be purchased via TOPIx (From the User ID – Options Menu – Programming subscriptions – click add). Module programming – with security access – is necessary to program the IPC, BCM, ECM (PCM), KVM, as well as keys. Licensed locksmiths and independent repairers must be active members of the National Automotive Service Task Force (NASTF) Vehicle Security Professional (VSP) registry and will need to purchase a subscription to Independent Module Programming with Security Access to program these components. Currently we are only able to support yearly module programming subscriptions with security access. SDD will only support Jaguar vehicles built from 1995 MY onward.
