What did you do with your Range Rover today

Enthusiastman · Nov 11, 2020

After giving mine a really good external polish today I sat on a stool next to her with a cup of tea and had a little chat. It ended with " if you don't buck your ideas up i'm scrapping you " LOL

Diagnosed the total electrical power loss (intermittent) on my 2002 L322 4.4
The neg terminal on the battery although the clamp was tight was still not fully clamped on the battery terminal, removed, both clamp and post cleaned, and refitted, the clamp is now noticeably further down on the post and it securely attached to the Neg battery terminal.
Also changed by headlight bulbs (D2s) bulbs as 1 was failing

Well spotted just like mine, everything looks good but it’s within a Gnats thing of being on tight enough for the secure connection our Rangies need to behave.

I actually need to get new terminals as mine are fubar. When fully tightened, they no longer grip the terminals sufficiently.

have you got them on far enough? i have to force mine open with a screwdriver and tap it onto the battery as far as it will go

Henry_b · Nov 11, 2020

I usually whale on it until the terminals bust through the top of the battery, then tighten the terminals

Bit of copper as a sleeve

Well i actually drove it, first time in weeks went for a nice drive to Lidl`s and happened to go down the specials isle and they had the 12.99 intelligent battery chargers so guess what fell in the trolley

Had the positive terminal like that on mine, surprising the problems it caused.
