Components and Functions
ComponentFunction
4WD switch
When the transfer shift lever is shifted to 4L or 4H position, this switch turns ON
and causes the 4WD control system to turn ON, unless it is shifted to N or 2H
within 1 second.
ECM or PCM
When the 4WD switch turns ON [unless it turns OFF within 1 second], this com-
ponent actuates the pump assembly. If the pressure in the air pump assembly
fails to increase higher than the set level even after the pump motor has run more
than 10 seconds, this component stops the motor to protect it.
Air pump assembly
Pump motor
Release valve
Pressure switchThe air pump assembly consists of a pump motor, release valve and a pressure
switch.
Pump motor:
Produces positive pressure which actuates the actuator.
Release valve:
Closes when transfer shift lever is shifted to 4H or 4L so that the positive pressure
is applied to the actuator, and opens when N or 2H to release the pressure to the
atmosphere.
Pressure switch:
Turns ON and OFF depending on the pressure level in the pump assembly
(whether higher or lower than the set pressure level). ECM or PCM detects the
pressure level through this switch.
Differential case assembly
Free axle hub
Axle lock clutch
ActuatorThe free axle hub, axle lock clutch and actuator are installed in the differential
left case. The positive pressure produced in the air pump assembly is applied
to the actuator which then pushes the axle lock clutch to be engaged with the free
axle hub. In this state, the drive force is transmitted to the front axle, resulting in
the 4WD mode.
When the actuator is free from the positive pressure [when it is under the atmo-
spheric pressure], the axle lock clutch is pushed back by the return spring force
and cannot be engaged with the free axle hub, resulting in the 2WD mode.
ª4WDº indicator lampIt lights up when 4WD control system is in the 4WD mode.

INSPECTION
4WD Control System
1) Install special tool to air hose connecting between air pump as-
sembly and differential (actuator) as shown in figure. Tighten ad-
justing screw of special tool as far as it stops. Close air check
side opening by using fuel hose as blind plug.
Special Tool
(A): 09918-18110
(B): 09367-04002
NOTE:
Use care not to bend any part of hose.
2) Turn ON ignition switch and shift transfer lever from 2H to 4H
range.
3) Check that motor starts running (a sound can be heard) within
1 second and it stops when gauge of special tool indicates speci-
fied pressure value.
Check also for air leakage.
Pressure specification:
30.0 ± 45.0 kPa (0.30 ± 0.45 kg / cm
2, 4.25 ± 6.40 psi)
4) Check that pressure value indicated on gauge of special tool
drops as soon as transfer lever is shifted to 2H position.
5) Start motor by shifting transfer lever to 4H position again. Loos-
en adjusting screw to lower pressure value on gauge. Motor
should start to run again and stop in about 4 seconds.
6) With the adjusting screw of special tool loosened, shift transfer
shift lever to N or 2H position and then 4L or 4H position.
Pump motor should stop about 10 seconds after motor starts to
run.
