Has anyone had any experience with this? Check the alternator output from start for a good ten minutes, checking the voltage with a multimeter as you go. Last edited by promitheus on 23rd Dec 2014 8:57 am.
The car went into limp mode for the rest of the journey. Land Rover - Turning Drivers into Mechanics Since 1948. I didn't have the time to wire my voltmeter on the battery while on the move, but I got 4-5 sample readings and they were pretty constant. 26th Nov 2014 11:25 pm. Did the voltage vary over time? I have checked the battery and charged it up with my CTEK, but the message appeared again after a few days again. I got this message on mine after only 22 miles on way home from dealer. After testing the battery and hooking up his laptop thingy, it said it needed a new software download. Anyway, still worth getting up close and personal with the alternator connector just to make sure it is not damaged at all, plus having a look at the ECM itself to check that there is no corrosion on the connector and pins.

2014 D4 HSE (Almost too bling)-GONE. So I was using it today and it was very hot so I had the air con on and using the cooled seats. So much for the Landrover PDI! I was doing short journeys, I had parked up for about and hour left the car and come back to drive home. Just an update, in case this may help others. 8v (which is higher than most). Range rover charging system fault yonne 77130. 2016 D4 Landmark (Written Off)-GONE. Put it down to a lot of start/stops with an undercharged battery. Car had not been driven for a day and temp was about 9 deg C, although it was a little colder overnight. Thanks for your help Robbie. 89V for the main battery and 12.
You should always see over 12. Dealer applied technical bulletin LTB00667v2 and everything seems normal, never had the system charging fault since then. Wow, Robbie, that's what I call a quick response! So there have now been a couple of TSB's to rectify this. Then after a week or so I noticed that the Eco Stop/Start wasn't working as normal. The voltage is regulated by the cars engine management system according to load, charging rate and temperature. Engine system fault range rover. The TSB is LTB00667 v2. Any help will be welcomed. Will try to get a continuous read-out while on the move tomorrow and let you know again. More advanced battery drain testing techniques in the wiki here: Good battery is around 12.
Location: Afidnes, Greece. 2017 FFRR SDV8 Autobiography. That's very interesting LT! I had the second version downloaded and it's been fine ever since.
And since mine must have been one of the first MY14's, I guess the TSB must concern me as well. I will check the alternator output and post any results. So I called LRA, who sent a very knowledgeable and friend LR Technician out to me. Charging System Fault [SOLVED]. Edited 1 time in total. The details below are for a D3, so the alternator output will be different on a D4, but it gives you an idea. I have drove it about 3 miles maybe more since that and it's still on. Hi everyone, I now have 14000km's on the clock and just got a 'Charging System Fault' error on my display three time during the last couple of months. OK, after a short ride with my D4, my last measurements are 14.
