Range Rover L322 Interior Fire: Day 4: Burnt Parts Removed, Assessed, Fire Cause Update, First Start
In the most stunning turn of events, we discovered that I was wrong about the cause of the fire. It was NOT caused by my own negligence, it was NOT caused by a wrench or tool, it was actually caused by internal failure (after a year of normal operation) of an Intellitec Bi-directional Intelligent Relay Delay (BIRD) device that heated from within and burnt everything in its immediate area, due to no fault of my own. Sometimes I'm too quick to blame myself and thought it must have been a tool and could not have been a product sold by a big company (Intellitec), but the evidence is clear in this video and the device failed internally and was the source. It had worked perfectly fine for about a year, but the fire happened on the hottest day of summer so far this year, when the inside of the car read 110 degrees Fahrenheit.
Overall, day 4 had the most significant updates yet: we ripped out all the immediate fire damaged components and trim pieces, cut out all the burnt sections of the harness, and taped all open electrical connections. We also started the car to be met with multiple codes.
I'm sorry, I didn't get to talk about the insurance update. I wanted to, but I'll add a short follow-up video talking just about insurance and where we are with it.
I want to thank everyone for your support and continuing to watch and subscribe to my videos. With your help just watching, liking, and subscribing I really want to move towards 1000 subscribers and get monetized.

Range Rover L322 Interior Fire: Day 3 Upholstery cleaning the cargo area less smoke smell already!
Переглядів 3352 роки тому
On day 3 we started upholstery cleaning the rear cargo area, which made a pretty quick difference in the smell. We bought a Bissell Little Green Pro commercial unit which worked pretty good for our needs, and it pulled out some nasty dark gunk from the rear cargo hatch and carpeted tailgate piece. For the next video, part 4, we'll have an insurance status update and start pulling off the burnt ...

    On the crimp fitting. There is a tool used for AC lines. That tool is used to crimp oil, transmission and engine oil cooler lines. You can get the crimp ends at hydraulic line shops. I'm sure they can actually build you an awesome oil cooler lines with better quality hoses or braided hoses.

      IIRC, mid-2005 was when Land Rover changed over to the fiber optic wiring platform for some of the interconnects on the multimedia system. You'll want to confirm if yours is running that new fiber system or the older copper only and then order the appropriate cable connectors/adaptors from EONON

    Turbo torches are OK in some cases but it throws a lot of undirected heat and is really easy to overheat the work area if you're not careful. Best to use a regular Oxy-Acetylene torch with a soft flame and a rosebud tip under low pressure. Get in and out quickly. You don't need it super hot like you're welding. Brazing is hard soldering.

      I’m sorry I cannot advise you on that. Please contact Harris, the manufacturer, and ask them if the product is rated for the application you need it for. They might have a suitable product that works or point you in a other direction. You may also want to consider asking your local fire department; I think some municipalities have a code inspector with each fire department, who would probably be willing to speak with you.

      I’m this video, the reason it sounds bad is because the timing is off and the VANOS system is shutting down. You have to correct the timing issue by using a quality timing kit, following a very specific procedure, and then resetting engine adaptions and letting it relearn everything. In another video I corrected the issue and it sounds much better. Use the German Auto Solutions timing kit, not a cheap Chinese made one.
