Secondary battery for camping
Interesting ideas! Do you have any insights as to what the BCM looks for to verify that a relay is present and working? Is it monitoring current draw from the coil, or voltage present on the load leg of the switch, or…? -
Secondary battery for camping
Does anyone have a wiring diagram that outlines, in particular, the three primary + leads that come off the starter battery terminal? One goes into a black box on the front of the battery box, another seems like it probably heads off to the starter, and the third, I don’t know what all it feeds... -
Secondary battery for camping
We have all, I think, had trouble when camping, and opening and closing doors causing the computers to all wake up and draw power from the starter battery. I long ago had the GAP tool shut off the ECO warning, but actually did replace the eco battery with a 100ah LiFePo battery. It currently... -
Parasitic drain / Battery Monitoring
Nearly 1/4 amp does seem a bit high. Have you double-checked that reading using your regular meter, just to make sure the clamp meter is accurate at low currents? -
2015 LR4 126,000 miles What Preventive Maintenance to do next?
I had poly bushings on the front lower arms. I got out of the truck to check for damage to the rear bumper after an obstacle on Hell’s Revenge trail near Moab, and noticed a slice of tomato sitting on the ground nearby. …turned out it was a piece of one of the new poly bushings. I went back to... -
Limp mode. Can't get above 4,000 RPM
You know, people should use AI to ask it how best to use AI and what the limitations are. It is sometimes pretty spot on in this area. I have seen more people trust outputs of a LLM without knowing what the heck it’s doing behind the scenes and how a probabilistic word generation engine derives... -
Expert Level - Charging System Fault 2016 LR4
I wonder if most parts stores’ testers can properly test a PWM alternator output? -
Rear Crossover Pipe leak confirmation Pictures
It’s a little hard to tell given the angles, but yes, that looks like what I remember the rear crossover pipe looking like. And regardless, you clearly have a leak back there that needs some attention. -

parasitic drain?
Shot in the dark, but…Where was his key fob? IIRC, having it in or too near the vehicle makes the computers stay awake. -
Relay R1, 2011 LR4
This guy....we all owe him the beverage of his choice when we visit Texas. -
Valve Cover/Camshaft sensor
Impressive sentence! Glad you got it sorted. -
Hard, jarring, harsh ride over holes and road imperfections
I had a poly bushing come apart on me on Hell’s Revenge near Moab. Changed them all out for OEM. -
LR4 Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs)
Yup...mine is highlighted in red above. So does that mean I should reach out to a local dealership? -
LR4 Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs)
Super nice of you, as always, @Rover Range . SALAG2V65GA788750 for when your system is back online and you have a few minutes to spare. -
LR4 Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs)
How does one respond to these? Reach out to a nearby dealership with the NHTSA and Service Bulletins, show them screen shots of the codes that were going off, and ask them to replace the sensors? -
LR4 Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs)
Hmmm…this one caught my eye: I wonder if that might be the source of repeated but intermittent fuel trim codes I keep getting? I've tried just about everything short of replacing all the O2 sensors, but with only 70k on the engine, it feels like the sensors shouldn't be worn out. -
SCV6 Fuel Pump Duty Cycle - GAP IID
Went out and checked mine, and they also read N/A on my readout as well. It occurred to me after that test that it might have to have the temperature up to full, but that feels like a stretch? -
Camshaft regulator failure - advise needed
I can’t advise, but I can commiserate. Sorry you’re having to deal with this! -
Persistent misfire under load only
Mine wasn't throwing codes consistently, either, after restricting performance from the coil failure/misfire issue. Not sure why. CEL light would come on, and the computer seemed to just shut that cylinder down entirely once a misfire on it was detected, but it would only occasionally throw codes. -
Persistent misfire under load only
I don’t recall…did you check fuel filter? -
2011 lr4 cliking noises coming through speakers
If the sound varies in frequency with engine RPM variation, the alternator is a good suspect. Otherwise…a capacitor in the amp module? IDK -
Parasitic drain on Main AGM Battery after Mechanic installed a High Output Alternator & 3-wire kit
It's hard to picture what you're describing without a diagram or something, and I don't know what an LPF battery is. But if they hooked it up so that the positives of both batteries are connected to one another, then one is likely discharging through the other. That happens even with "identical"... -
lr4 v6 electric thermostat not open
Whee the heck is the informed parts guy when you need him? ;-) Thanks for the inside info, @Rover Range
