DIFFERENTIAL LOCKING SYSTEM
ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION
1. INSPECT DIFFERENTIAL LOCK SYSTEM
(a) Inspect the indicator light.
Check that the indicator light lights up for approx. 1 se-
cond when the ignition switch is turned ON.
(b) Inspect the differential lock operation.
(1) Jack up the vehicle then start the engine.
(2) Shift the transfer shift lever to L position.
(3) When the diff. lock control switch is set to the RR
position, the indicator light is turned on.
Differential lock is applied to the rear wheel at this
time.
HINT:
If the gears of the differential lock system are not meshed, the
indicator light remains blinking, so rotate the tires to mesh the
gear.
(4) When the diff. lock control switch is at the OFF posi-
tion, the indicator light goes off.
Differential lock is released for the rear wheel at this
time.
(5) Check the voltage between the terminals of the rear
diff. lock control ECU when switching the diff. lock
control switch with the speedometer, registering
approx. 8 km/h (5 mph) or more.
Swith positionTerminalSpecified value
ONM1 - M20.5 V or less
(No change)
(6) Return the diff. lock control switch to OFF.
(7) Stop the engine and lower the vehicle.
2. INSPECT DIFF. LOCK SYSTEM CIRCUIT
(a) Inspect the battery positive voltage.
Battery positive voltage: 10 - 14 V

(b) Inspect the system circuit with the connector discon-
nected.
Disconnect the connector from the rear diff. lock control
ECU and inspect the connector on the wire harness side,
as shown in the table.

HINT:
If the circuit is not as specified value, check and repair or re-
place the trouble part shown in the table above.
(c) Inspect the system circuit with the connector connected.
(1) Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
(2) Shift the transfer shift lever to L position.
(3) Using a voltmeter, measure the voltage when the
differential lock control switch is in the position, as
shown in the table.
