Land Rover TestBook User Manual - Eng - Internet-Tools.co.uk

INTRODUCTION
INTRODUCTION
Land Rover’s TestBook programme has successfully
applied modern Information Technology to the
servicing and repair of its vehicles.
TestBook is a portable computer designed to help a
service technician diagnose electrical systems,
engine systems, and transmission systems in Land
Rover vehicles.
TestBook can draw current from a 12 volt vehicle
battery or from an AC/DC power supply. It prompts
the service technician to enter commands for
selecting self tests, retrieving diagnostic information,
or running vehicle diagnostics.
TestBook has already made a major contribution to
raising standards of customer satisfaction and
promoting the business success of dealerships and
their staff.
As with any progressive activity, TestBook benefits
from continuous improvement to all its support
facilities, based on the real -life experience that we
have all gained so far.
So this Technician’s Handbook has been designed
to consolidate all the information and guidance that
used to exist in a variety of publications, within this
single easy-reference book. Virtually everything that
you need to know is in this handbook - including
details of what to do if you can’t find the answer you
need !
Although much of the information given here is
similar to that previously published, many items
have been updated, extra information has been
added and efforts have been made to clarify certain
parts of the text.
Land Rover is constantly seeking ways to improve
the specification and design of its vehicles and
alterations take place continually.
Whilst every effort is made to produce upto date
literature, this User Manual should not be regarded
as an infallible guide to current specification, nor
does it constitute an offer for the fitment of any
particular system or component.
For example, it was felt that the number of separate
publications that technicians might need to refer to
when using TestBook had become excessive, and
difficult to manage in a workshop situation.
