1 Disconnect the battery negative (earth) lead
(refer to Chapter 5, Section 1).
2 In order to release the trip computer
retaining clips, two U-shaped rods (of the type
used for radio/cassette player removal) must
be inserted into the special holes on each side
of the unit. If possible, it is preferable to obtain
purpose made rods from an audio specialist
as these have cut-outs which snap firmly into
the clips so that the unit can be pulled out.
3 Insert the special rods into the holes in the
side of the unit until they engage the internal
retaining clip lugs.
4 Withdraw the unit from the lower facia
sufficiently to gain access to the wiring at the

24 Anti-theft system - 

general information

Later models are fitted with an anti-theft

system as an additional security measure. The
system is armed automatically whenever the
vehicle is locked (by key or infra-red handset);
the system cannot be armed by pressing the
internal door lock buttons.

In the event of the vehicle being broken

into, the alarm will be activated. It will also
sound if the ignition key is inserted into the
ignition switch whilst the alarm is armed, and
additionally, when the system is being armed
and a door is not fully closed. Note that the
bonnet must also be fully closed to enable the
system to be armed.

On later models, an additional ultrasonic

space protection feature is incorporated into
the system. This uses two sensors mounted
at the top of the left-hand door pillars to
detect movement inside the vehicle (such as
entry being gained through a broken window).
In the event of such movement being
detected, the alarm will be activated. This
feature can be disabled if required (for
example, if the car is to be briefly locked with
animals inside).

The anti-theft alarm system is controlled by

the ignition/starter circuit, the door courtesy
light switches, the boot/tailgate light switches
and the central control unit (CCU).

Note: The following procedures apply to
those components dedicated to the anti-theft
alarm system. Removal and refitting
procedures for the central control unit (CCU)
and the door/boot/tailgate light switches will
be found in Sections 11 and 4 respectively. At
the time of writing no information was
available relating to the ultrasonic space
detection sensor.

and on the extreme edges, then remove the
finisher from the car.
5 Using pointed-nose pliers, release the
rubber sealing strip retaining clips. Be
prepared for some of these clips to break
during removal.
6 Lift off the centre grille and the right-hand
plenum moulding.
7 Release the wiring harness from the
support bracket and disconnect the wiring
multiplug.
8 Undo the two retaining screws and remove

Warning: Procedures for removal and refitting of the driver’s side airbag module
and rotary coupler are given in Chapter 10, Sections 18 and 19 respectively. Those
procedures are provided solely to allow removal and refitting of the steering wheel
and associated components as part of a normal repair operation. Do not attempt

to carry out any other work whatsoever on the airbag supplementary restraint system
components. Any diagnosis or repair necessary, must be carried out by a Rover dealer.

Bonnet switch

Removal

10 Open the bonnet and disconnect the in-
line wiring connector to the switch.
11 Compress the retaining clips and
withdraw the bonnet switch from the
mounting panel.

Refitting

12 Refitting is a reversal of removal.

26 Airbag supplementary

restraint system - 
general information

Later models are fitted with a driver’s

airbag, which is designed to prevent serious
chest and head injuries to the driver during an
accident. A similar bag for the front seat
passenger is also available. The two crash
sensors which detect frontal impact are
located on either side of the engine
compartment while the electronic control unit
for the airbag is located in the passenger
compartment in front of the centre console.
The airbag is inflated by an igniter, which
forces the bag out of the module cover in the
centre of the steering wheel, or out of a cover
on the passenger’s side of the facia. A rotary
coupler behind the steering wheel at the top
of the steering column, ensures that a good
electrical connection is maintained with the
airbag at all times as the steering wheel is
turned in each direction.
