INSPECTION PROCEDURE 4
AYC warning lamp remains lit up after the engine has
started.
Probable cause
The AYC warning lamp ON circuit is probably short-circuited.Defective combination meter
Defective harness (short-circuit)

This symptom is limited only when the communication with MUT-II is possible with AYC-ECU power supply
in normal condition and the diagnosis code is correct.
OK
Replace combination meter.
NO
Check the harness between AYC
warning lamp and AYC-ECU.NG

Does the AYC warning lamp goes out
when the B-96 AYC-ECU connector
is disconnected?YESReplace AYC-ECU.
INSPECTION PROCEDURE 5
AYC is inoperative.
Unable to start or accelerate on slippery road surfaces.
Probable cause
The hydraulic oil level is probably low, there is an oil leak, the hydraulic unit is defective,
or the torque transfer differential is defective.Low hydraulic oil level
