Hi

Some nice person decided to break into my 2002 P38 Vogue SE a few weeks back and steal all the sat nav and stereo and do a load of other damage. In doing so they managed to snap one of the connectors off one of the cables to the unit in the boot. I still have the connector and the cable but they are no longer connected. I have managed to source a replacement system but without the cables and need some help to try and get it working. Basically there are 2 cables which go into the back of the unit in the boot, one with a blue connector and one with a dark red one, its the red one I have a problem with. I need to know which cable goes into which part of the connector. They are all colour coded but nowhere can I actually find anything to tell me which colour goes where. Landrover want almost a thousand pounds for a new cable and aparently don't have a wiring diagram for it as it is sold as a whole part! All I need is for someone to have a look at the back of their unit in the boot and take a note of which colour goes into which hole in the plastic end of the cable and maybe even take a picture and sent it to me. The unit is easy to take out it's just I don't seem to be able to find anywhere that has one and will let me look at it. any help is very much appreciated and you will be rewarded in heaven! All I want to do is get my Rangie back to a state that it deserves to be in before some mindless theif decided to take something that wasn't theirs!:mad:

Thanks in anticipation
JON

This is a problem as when lr launched the 2002 rangie, the wiring diagrams were very sketchy, there are no diagrams at all for the entertainment/nav system and none we ever printed or put on GTR, the wiring diagrams for entertainment are only good for 2005 models onwards as this is when they updated them (when the touch screen was introduced).

So, in a nutshell, the dealer you spoke to wasn't telling you porkies, there really are no wiring diagrams!!! We technicians have to work it out and guess when there is a fault with these.
 
Thanks for the reply, I think I might have been a little confusing though. Mine was actually one of the last of the older generation P38 range rovers and not the new one introduced in 2002. Don't know if this means there may be soem help around?
 
If it's the Carin system as fitted to earlier P38's the pin outs & wire colours should be shown on the wiring diagrams on Rave
