Frequently asked questions

What does the FRC3162 speedometer drive gear do?
The FRC3162 speedometer drive gear takes drive from the LT230 transfer box output and turns the speedometer cable, converting output shaft rotation into a road speed reading. It fits the Land Rover Defender up to 2016, Discovery 1, and Range Rover Classic.
Where is the FRC3162 drive gear located?
The FRC3162 drive gear sits in the LT230 transfer box at the rear output, where the speedometer cable connects. It typically meshes with the driven gear in the speedometer pinion housing on the transfer box output flange.
Why does the FRC3162 speedometer drive gear fail?
The FRC3162 drive gear typically fails when its teeth wear or strip, usually showing up as an erratic, under-reading, or dead speedometer. A worn gear can't turn the cable reliably. Inspect it whenever the speedometer reads incorrectly on the LT230-equipped vehicle.
How do I make sure I order the right speedometer drive gear?
Speedometer drive gears come in different tooth counts, usually identified by a colour code, to match the transfer box ratio and tyre size. Count the teeth on your old FRC3162 gear and check the colour before fitting, since the wrong gear gives an inaccurate speed reading.
