Diagnostic procedure
STEP INSPECTION ACTION
1VERIFY DSC, PCM, TCM, AND 4WD SYSTEM
DTCs
•Verify DSC, PCM, TCM, and 4WD system
DTCs using WDS or equivalent.
•Are there any DTCs present?Yes Go to applicable DTC inspection.
No Go to next step.
2VERIFY TIRE AIR PRESSURE
•Inspect tire air pressure.
•Is it within specification?Yes Go to next step.
No Adjust tire air pressure, then go to next step.
3COMPARE WITH SAME MODEL TIRES
•Install tires of the same model.
•Perform simulation driving.
•Does malfunction recur?Yes Go to next step.
No 4WD system is okay.
4COMPARE WITH SAME MODEL VEHICLE
•Install tires of malfunctioning vehicle to
another same model vehicle.
•Perform simulation driving.
•Does malfunction recur?Yes 4WD system is okay.
No Go to next step.
5INSPECT 4WD SOLENOID
•Inspect 4WD solenoid.
(See M–66 4WD SOLENOID INSPECTION)
•Is coupling component solenoid okay?Yes Inspect harness between 4WD solenoid and 4WD CM, then
go to next step.
No Replace coupling component.
6INSPECT WHEEL ALIGNMENT
•Inspect wheel alignment.
•Is it okay?Yes Replace coupling component.
No Inspect wheel alignment, and adjust it if necessary.
2 Tight corner braking
[TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS]
•Because the coupling component locks up easily (similar to direct 4WD), rotational difference between the front
and rear wheels cannot be absorbed and brake-like phenomenon occurs.
•Due to the coupling component construction, slight tight corner braking effect occurs during tight cornering on a
paved road. (4WD system is okay. Compare with another same model vehicle to determine malfunction.)
•Coupling component malfunction
•4WD solenoid malfunction
STEP INSPECTION ACTION
1VERIFY DSC, PCM, TCM, AND 4WD SYSTEM
DTCS

DTCs using WDS or equivalent.
•Are there any DTCs present?Yes Go to applicable DTC inspection.
No Go to next step.
2VERIFY TIRE AIR PRESSURE

No Repair or replace malfunctioning part.
4COMPARE WITH SAME MODEL VEHICLE
•Perform simulation driving with another
same model vehicle.

SUSPENSION CONTROL SYSTEMA6E741601013201Outline
•The self-leveling suspension is a system that adjusts the vehicle height according the amount of vehicle load.
This system will raise the rear of a vehicle, lowered due to a load placed on it, to the designated load level
* after
the vehicle has been driven a certain distance.
•The vehicle height adjustment is performed using a gas-pressurized pump function built into the rear shock
absorber.
•For the vehicle height to return to the designated load level, the vehicle must be driven approx. 5—6 km {3.1—
3.7 miles} in city driving conditions. (Distance will vary due to load and road conditions.)
•A load amount of approx. 140—300 kg {308—660 lb} at the rear axle will cause the vehicle height to be raised,
and any weight over that will prevent the vehicle from returning to the designated load level.
*: Designated load level is defined as the level at which the vehicle is with: a full fuel tank; engine coolant and oil at
specified levels; spare tire, jack and tools in designated positions; and four people, weighing 55 kg {121 lb} each,
riding in the vehicle.

AIR BAG SYSTEM

Curtain air bag module (WGN)
1. Remove the curtain air bag module. (See T–35 CURTAIN AIR BAG MODULE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
2. Secure the curtain air bag module in a vise, and
cut off the deployment section, as shown in the
figure.
Warning
•Be sure not to collapse the pipe on the
side where it is cut. If it is collapsed, the
interior pressure of the pipe will build up
and can cause it to explode during air
bag module deployment.
3. Connect the SST (Adapter harness) to the curtain
air bag module as shown in the figure.
4. Tie the side air bag module to the tire with the
module facing the center of the tire. Wrap the wire
harness through the tire and around the bracket
at least four times.
Warning
•If the air bag module is not properly
installed to the tire, serious injury may
occur when the module is deployed.
When installing the air bag module to the
tire, make sure the module is facing the
downward.
5. Stack the tire with the curtain air bag module on
top of two tires. Stack a tire on top of three tires.
Stack another tire that has a wheel on top of the
four tires.
