DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 41-15
High/low detect switch
A high/low detect switch is fitted in the front output housing and connects to earth when low is selected. The switch is
connected to the engine ECM, the SLABS ECU and the EAT ECU. The purpose of the switch is to enable selection
of the hill descent feature and to modify the engine fuelling and automatic gearbox gearshift maps stored within the
respective ECM's and ECU's.
Differential lock - Fitted to certain vehicles only
The differential lock selector housing is bolted to the top of the front output housing, the selector finger passes through
the housing, locating in a slot in the differential lock selector shaft. The differential lock selector shaft passes through
the selector fork which is located beneath a plate bolted to the side of the output housing. The selector fork engages
the dog clutch sleeve with the differential rear shaft when the splines of the sleeve and differential rear shaft are
aligned. A spring loaded detent ball fitted in the output housing locates in grooves in the shaft.
Functionality – Vehicles up to 03 model year only
The function of the differential lock used in previous applications is performed on this vehicle by the Electronic Traction
Control System. However, for the purposes of 2 wheel rolling road testing , the differential lock components are
retained. For all driving conditions however, the differential lock must be set in the unlocked position.
Up to 03 model year specification shown
The differential lock must only be engaged for 2 wheel rolling road testing as engagement of the lock disables the
traction control feature and inhibits correct operation of the electronic brake distribution and hill descent features. It
will also be necessary to disconnect the propeller shaft from the transfer box output shaft driving the axle whose
wheels are NOT on the rolling road. The lock may be engaged/disengaged by using a 10 mm open ended spanner
on the flats (arrowed) machined on the differential lock selector shaft.
Vehicles not fitted with a differential lock may be identified by there being no cover or selector shaft (arrowed) on the
front output housing.
WARNING: VEHICLES NOT FITTED WITH A DIFFERENTIAL LOCK MUST NOT BE TESTED ON A ROLLING
ROAD WHERE THE ROLLERS ARE DRIVEN BY THE VEHICLE.
