DRIVE LINE CONTROL SYSTEM (TOD) 4B2–6
High-Low Planetary Gear Set
Establishes an auxiliary transmission mechanism. When
the transfer shift lever is set to the 2H or TOD position, the
reduction gear ratio is 1.000 and the corresponding
driving force is generated. When the transfer shift lever is
set to the 4L position, the reduction gear ratio is 2.480 and
the corresponding driving force is generated.
262RW030
4H and 4L Switches
Detects the shift position of the transfer from the
movement of the transfer lever and outputs signals to the
TOD control unit.
261RW002
Transfer Connector
Transmits the input and output signals of the speed
sensors, electromagnetic coil, and 4H and 4L switches to
the vehicle harness. A waterproof 12-pin type is used.

Indication During Transition of Transfer Lever
When the transfer lever is shifted, and the signals from
the AXLE switch do not comply with the signal conditions
of the 4H and 4L switch, the transfer lever position signals
generated by the 4H and 4L switch and the N position
signals are repeatedly output at an interval of 0.8 second.NOTE: After the transfer lever is set to the specified
position and the AXLE switch generates compliant
signals, the normal output status is returned.

Bulb Check
When the starter switch is turned on, the TOD indicator
lamps go on as shown below.NOTE: Once the starter switch is turned on, all the TOD
indicator lamps are lit for two seconds even if the transfer
lever is in any position.

DRIVE LINE CONTROL SYSTEM (TOD) 4B2–10
Simplified checking method of ABS IN and BRAKE ON signals:
In the event that any of the signal inputs listed below are
observed while the self-diagnostic code is being
displayed (the self-diagnostic connector is short-circuited
to GND), you can simply check the ABS IN and BRAKE
ON signals as shown in the figures below.

Check Lamp
Check Lamp Valve Check
When the starter switch is turned on in the normal state,
the control unit turns on the CHECK lamp to check the
bulb.

4B2–11 DRIVE LINE CONTROL SYSTEM (TOD)
The CHECK lamp also has the following functions.
D-G MAP recognition and display (The control unit
displays what type of vehicle, diesel or gasoline
vehicle, it recognizes.)
1. Short-circuit the self-diagnostic connector.
2. Turn on the starter switch. (Displays with respect to
the self-diagnosis begin to appear.)
NOTE: Do not start the engine.
3. Shift the transfer lever to the neutral position between
HIGH and 4L.
4. After all the conditions in 1 through 3 above are met,
set the throttle to the WOT (wide open throttle)
position (i.e., full open position). The display of the
self-diagnosis is temporarily suspended, and the
CHECK lamp begins to display that MAP is
recognized by the TPS (throttle position sensor)
according to the current conditions.NOTE: If the TPS has failed, this function might not work.
1. When the control unit recognizes the vehicle as
gasoline type, the CHECK lamp is turned on for five
seconds and this mode is repeated at an interval of
0.3 second.
2. When the control unit recognizes the vehicle as
diesel type, the CHECK lamp is turned off for five
seconds and this mode is repeated at an interval of
0.3 seconds.
3. Upon completion of step 4, the system resumes the
self-diagnosis. (The self-diagnosis is executed
from the beginning.)
5. Turn off the starter switch once. When above
conditions are met again in the future, the TPS MAP
control can be started.

Diagnosis
General Information Diagnosis
The troubles on TOD are classified into the group that can
be identified by the lighting status of the TOD indicator
lamps and those that can be recognized as abnormal
phenomena of the vehicle by the driver.
The troubles that can be identified by the lighting status of
the TOD indicator lamps are examined by the procedures“Diagnosis from Trouble Codes” and “Trouble Diagnosis
Depending on The Status of TOD indicator”. The troubles
that can be recognized as abnormal phenomena of the
vehicle by the driver are examined by the procedure
“Diagnosis from symptom”.
Self-diagnosis
The control unit has a function of self-diagnosis. If a
trouble occurs in the course of system startup, the control
unit blinks the CHECK lamp and saves the trouble code.
C07RW021
NOTE: If an intermittent fault occurs, the control unit
stops blinking upon removal of the fault. The trouble code
is saved to the control unit.

4B2–13 DRIVE LINE CONTROL SYSTEM (TOD)
Indication Method of Trouble Code
Short-circuit terminal 8 of the self-diagnostic
connector to GND to display the trouble code on the
CHECK lamp.
810RW308
If no trouble codes exist, code “12” is displayed
continuously.
If trouble codes exist, code “12” is displayed three
times, and the trouble codes, starting from the smaller
code number, are displayed three times respectively.
