Irregular and Premature Wear
480RS001
Irregular and/or premature wear has many causes.
Some of them are incorrect inflation pressures, lack of tire
rotation, poor driving habits or improper wheel alignment.
Incorrect inflation is common cause of tire premature
wear.NOTE: Due to their design, radial tires tend to wear faster
in the shoulder area, particularly on the front tires. This
makes regular rotation especially necessary. After
rotation, be sure to check wheel nut torque, and set tire
pressures.

Tire Replacement
When replacement is necessary, the original metric tire
size should be used. Most metric tire sizes do not have
exact corresponding alphanumeric tire sizes. It is
recommended that new tires be installed in pairs on the
same axle. If necessary to replace only one tire, it should
be paired with tire having the most tread, to equalize
braking traction.
CAUTION: Do not mix different types of tires such
as radial, bias and bias-belted tires except in
emergencies, because vehicle handling may be
seriously affected and may result in loss of control.
Tire Dismounting
Remove valve cap on valve step and deflate the tire. Then
use a tire changing machine to mount or dismount tires.
Follow the equipment manufacturer's instruction. Do not
use hand tools or tire lever alone to change tires as they
may damage the tire beads or wheel rim.
Tire Mounting
Rim bead seats should be cleaned with a wire brush or
coarse steel wool to remove lubricants, and light rust.
Before mounting a tire, the bead area should be well
lubricated with an approved tire lubricant.
After mounting, inflate the tire to 196kPa (28 psi) so that
beads are completely seated. Inflate the air to specified
pressure and install valve cap to the stem.
WARNING: NEVER STAND OVER TIRE WHEN
INFLATING. BEAD MAY BREAK WHEN BEAD SNAPS
OVER RIM'S SAFETY HUMP AND CAUSE SERIOUS
PERSONAL INJURY.
NEVER EXCEED 240 KPA (35 PSI) PRESSURE WHEN
INFLATING. IF 240 KPA (35 PSI) PRESSURE WILL
NOT SEAT BEADS, DEFLATE, RE-LUBRICATE AND
RE-INFLATE. OVER INFLATION MAY CAUSE THE
BEAD TO BREAK AND CAUSE SERIOUS PERSONAL
INJURY.
Tire Repair
There are many different materials on the market used to
repair tires.
Manufacturers have published detailed instructions on
how and when to repair tires. These instructions can be
obtained from the tire manufacturer if they are not
included with the repair kit.
Wheel Inspection
Damaged wheels and wheels with excessive run-out
must be replaced.
Wheel run out at rim (Base on hub Bore):
Aluminum
1± Vertical play: Less than 0.55 mm (0.022 in)
2± Horizontal play: Less than 0.55 mm (0.022 in)
480RS012
General Balance Procedure
Deposits of mud, etc. must be cleaned from the inside of
the rim.
The tire should be inspected for the following: match
mount paint marks, bent rims, bulges, irregular tire wear,
proper wheel size and inflation pressure. Then balance
according to the equipment manufacturer's
recommendations.
There are two types of wheel and tire balance.
Static balance is the equal distribution of weight around
the wheel.
Assemblies that are statically unbalanced cause a
bouncing action called tramp. This condition will
eventually cause uneven tire wear.

1. ON BOARD DIAGNOSIS (SELF-DIAGNOSIS)
1. The Control Unit conducts a self-test of most of the
wiring and components in the system each time the
key is turned ON. If a fault is detected the Control
Unit will store a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) in
memory. It's a number that corresponds to a
specific problem.
2. When the problem detected is important: the
warning lamp turns on until the fault is repaired and
the Control Unit memory is cleared.
2. DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES (DTC)
1. DTC can be expressed by flashing times of warning
lamp by shorting together terminals 3 and 4 or 5 of
the Diagnosis Connector (C-39) located left side of
instrument panel.

Circuit Description
The G-sensor sends the voltage (Vout) corresponding to
the vehicle vertical gravity to the control unit.
The control unit supplies DC 5V power (Vcc) to each
G-sensor.
The control unit watches the G-sensor operation through
Vcc signal.
Diagnostic Aids

Inspect the wiring for poor electrical connections
between the control unit connectors and the actuator
connectors. Look for possible bent, backed out,
deformed, or damaged terminals. Check for weak
terminal tension as well.
Also check for a chafed wire that could short to bare
metal or other wiring. Inspect for a broken wire inside
the insulation.

When diagnosing for a possible intermittent short or
open condition, move the wiring harness while
observing test equipment for a change.

DRIVE LINE CONTROL SYSTEM (TOD)
TOD Control
The TOD position usually drives the rear wheels, and
transmits the torque to the front wheels with the help of
electronically controlled torque split mechanism
according to running conditions encountered. The driving
force is directly transmitted to the rear wheels. This force
is split by the transfer and delivered to the front wheels.
The magnitude of the torque transmitted to the front
wheels is controlled by changing the pressing force of the
multi plate disk clutch built in the transfer unit. The
pressing force of the clutch is controlled by changing the
duty ratio to the electromagnetic coil mounted to the rear
of the clutch. When the clutch is completely disengaged,
the rear wheels are driven. When the clutch is completely
engaged, a rigid four wheel drive mode is obtained. The
torque split status is controlled continuously between the
rear wheel and four wheel drive modes. This system
includes front and rear speed sensors, and receives
throttle position sensor and engine speed information
from the PCM, ABS control unit signal, brake switch
signal, and shift motor position information.
The control unit receives signals sent from these sensors
and changes the pressing force of the multi-plate disk
clutch to determine the torque distribution on the front and
rear wheels. Therefore, when the slip of the rear wheels is
increased against the current torque level in the normal
rear wheel drive mode, the control unit detects the slip
condition, determines the optimum torque based on the
feedback control logic, and increases the torque to the
front wheels.
The control unit uses the signal from the throttle position
sensor to predict the future vehicle condition and the
intention of the driver with respect to acceleration and
deceleration, and determines the initial torque distribution
using these data and the information from the speed
sensors.
In case of small circle turning in the parking lot, for
example, the control unit minimizes the clutch pressing
force to restrict a braking phenomenon. When the ABS
becomes active, the control unit optimizes the clutch
pressing force to ensure stable braking.
TOD Indicator Control
The TOD indicator on the instrument panel informs the
driver of the current working status of the transfer unit.
The information is the drive mode (2H, TOD, 4L,
transition). The indicator can display occasional errors
and corresponding error codes.
