5D1-36 TRANSFER CASE (PART TIME 4408)
TRANSFER CASE CONTROL UNIT
(TCCU)
System Description
TCCU is located under the front left handed seat and permits
the vehicle to shift from two-wheel drive to four-wheel drive
(and back shift) according to driver’s switch operation during
driving (For the shifting between 4WD HIGH and 4WD LOW,
stop the vehicle).
1. Shifting from 2H to 4H
lPosition the transfer case switch from '2H' to '4H'.
lShifting is possible during driving.
l'4WD Hl' indicator light will turn on.
2. Shifting from 4H to 2H
lPosition the transfer case switch from '4H' to '2H'.
lShifting is possible during driving.
l'4WD Hl' indicator light will turn off.
3. Shifting between 4H and 4L
lShifting is possible when the vehicle is almost stopped
(below approx. 2 km/h), so it would be better stop the
vehicle.
lIn case of manual transmission equipped vehicle, apply
clutch pedal.
lIn case of auto transmission equipped vehicle, put the
lever position into 'N'.
lPosition the transfer case switch '4H' to '4L' or '4L' to
'4H'.
lAccording to the shifted position, indicator light will turn
on.
Notice
If there are malfunctions during shifting,'4H' or '4L' indicator
light will blink.
5D2-4 TRANSFER CASE (TOD)
FUNCTION DESCRIPTION
lTOD System Select Mode (4H and 4L)
4H is the mode when drive normally of which gear ratio is 1:1 and 4L mode distributes power to front and rear
wheels 50:50 of which gear ratio is 2.48:1.
lTOD System Function (select 4H mode)
TOD system controls clutch mechanism to comply with rotation in front and rear propeller shaft and if its difference
exceeds the permissible range, corresponding power is distributed into front wheel through EMC (Electro-Magnetic
Clutch).
Hall effect sensor signals speed on front and rear propeller shafts going through with TOD control unit.
Transfercase clutch coil is activated by variable current on exceeding difference of speed in front and rear propeller
shafts.
lFunction of 4L Mode
When select 4L mode, EMC is locked to apply maximum torque into front and rear propeller shafts. Shift motor
rotates also 4L position by rotation of cam thus propeller shaft torque changes from 1:1 to 2.48:1 by planetary
gear set.
lShift Motor
It locates backside transfer case, which drives rotary helical cam.
When mode select switch changes to 4L, shift fork is on position for 2.48:1 by rotation of helical cam.
lTransfer Case
TOD transfer case distributes power into front and rear axle by operation of 4H/4L switch and shift motor.
Shifting 4H to 4L, is performed towards reducing HI-LO collar by means for connection HI-LO shift fork with
output shaft in order to join with planetary gear. Torque transmits input shaft then sun gear rotating front planetary
gear. Front planetary gear join with output shaft and drives LO position.

Definitions
Rear Speed Sensor A Hall Effect speed sensor which produces a square wave. 0-5Vdc signal in
response to a rotating 30 tooth wheel coupled to the rear propshaft inside the
Transfer Case. Each rotation of the rear propshaft will result in 30 speed sensor
pulse.
Front Speed SensorA Hall Effect speed sensor which produces a square wave. 0-5Vdc signal in
response to a rotating 30 tooth wheel coupled to the front propshaft inside the
Transfer Case. Each rotation of the front propshaft will result in 30 speed sensor
pulse.
EMC An Electromagnetic clutch used to control the amount of torque applied to the
front propshaft.

4. Electric Shift Default Mode
If the motor fails to reach its destination, the TCCU will attempt the following (in order):
a. The TCCU will wait 3 seconds then attempt the shift again.
b. If the second attempt to reach the destination fails the TCCU will wait 3 seconds then attempt to rotate the
motor back to the original position. If successful, all future shifts will be inhibited until the Ignition is cycled.
c. If the attempt to return to the original position fails, the TCCU will wait 3 seconds then attempt to rotate the
motor to the original position again. If the second attempt to return to the original position is successful, the
“4WD CHECK” lamp will be illuminated, and all future shifts will be inhibited until the Ignition is cycled.
d. If the second attempt to return to the original position fails the motor will be turned off, the “4WD CHECK” lamp
will be illuminated, and all future shifts will be inhibited until the Ignition is cycled.
TODTM System Operation
The TODTM System is responsible for distributing torque between the front and rear axles. The TCCU monitors the
propshaft speeds, operating range (High/Low), and ABS activity and then applies a calculated amount of torque to
the front axle by Pulse Width Modulating the current applied to the EMC.
1. Touch-off Torque
The minimum EMC Duty Cycle is based on the vehicle speed and throttle position
The TCCU receives the TPS signal from the following sources:
On vehicles equipped with CAN, the TCCU receives the TPS signal from the CAN bus.
2. When Slip Detection
The TCCU continuously monitors the front and rear propshaft speeds to detect wheel slip.
3. Wheel Slip Control
When wheel slip is detected the TCCU controls the EMC duty cycle as necessary until the wheel slip is reduced
below the allowable limit. The EMC Duty Cycle will then be reduced to the Touch-Off value.
4. Brake/ABS Strategy
When the ABS System is active, the EMC Duty Cycle is set to a fixed duty cycle (30%) to aid in braking without
counteracting the ABS System.
5. 4L Strategy
When the system is operating in 4L, the TCCU continues TOD
TM (operation provided that the propshaft speed is
below 175 rpm (5220 pulses/minute)). When the speed increases above 175 rpm, the EMC Duty Cycle is set to
the maximum value (88%) which applies the maximum available torque to the front axle.

g. If the shift motor/position encoder assembly failure (other than a motor failure which occurs when the motor is
energized) recovers continuously for one second the TCCU will function normally. The “4WD CHECK” lamp is
turned off but the fault code will remain in memory.
h. A motor failure (i.e. open or short circuit) which occurs when the motor is energized can only be cleared by
cycling the ignition off-on.
3. Front Speed Sensor Test
If a Front Speed Sensor fault is detected continuously for 0.5 second the “4WD CHECK” lamp is illuminated. The
TCCU then responds as follows:
a. If the system is in High Range the TCCU uses the Rear Speed Sensor to determine the EMC Touch Off level
and wheel slip control is suspended.
b. If the system is in Low Range, the EMC Duty Cycle is set to maximum (independent of vehicle speed) until the
system is shifted out of 4L.
c. All Electric Shift activity is halted until the Ignition is cycled. If a shift is in progress it will be completed.
If the Front Speed Sensor recovers continuously for O.5 second the TCCU will function normally. The “4WD
CHECK” lamp is turned off but the fault code will remain in memory.
4. Rear Speed Sensor Test
If a Rear Speed Sensor fault is detected continuously for 0.5 second the “4WD CHECK” lamp is illuminated. The
TCCU then responds as follows:
a. If the system is in High Range the TCCU uses the Front Speed Sensor to determine the EMC Touch Off level
and wheel slip control is suspended.
b. If the system is in Low Range, the EMC Duty Cycle is set to maximum (independent of vehicle speed) until the
system is shifted out of 4L.
c. All Electric Shift activity is halted until the Ignition is cycled. If a shift is in progress it will be completed.
If the Rear Speed Sensor recovers continuously for 0.5 second the TCCU will function normally. The “4WD
CHECK” lamp is turned off but the fault code will remain in memory.
5. Both Speed Sensor Faulty
If both the Front and Rear Speed Sensors are faulty continuously for 0.5 seconds the “4WD CHECK” lamp is
illuminated. The TCCU then responds as follows:
a. If the system is in High Range the TCCU sets the EMC Touch Off level based on a vehicle speed of 0 and wheel
slip control is suspended.
b. If the system is in Low Range, the EMC Duty Cycle is set to maximum until the system is shifted out of 4L.
c. All Electric Shift activity is halted until the Ignition is cycled. If a shift is in progress it will be completed.
If both Speed Sensors recover continuously for 0.5 second the TCCU will function normally. The “4WD CHECK”
lamp is turned off but the fault code will remain in memory.
6. EMC Test
The EMC is tested for open circuit or short circuit to ground. If a fault is detected continuously for 0.8 second the
“4WD CHECK” lamp is turned on and all TODTM activity is halted.
If the EMC recovers continuously for 0.8 second the TCCU will function normally. The “4WD CHECK” lamp is
turned off but the fault code will remain in memory.
