ELECTRONIC 4WD CONTROL SYSTEM
Components and Functions
System Diagram
.
Part name Function
Electronic control coupling
(4WD solenoid)•Based on a signal from the 4WD CM, it operates the electromagnetic clutch and
transmits drive torque to the rear wheels.
Differential oil temperature
sensor•Informs the 4WD CM of the rear differential oil temperature.
4WD CM•Controls operation of the electronic control coupling (4WD solenoid) based on signals
input from the throttle opening angle, speed, differential oil temperature and other
sensors.
•Outputs coupling control condition and 4WD warning control information as a CAN
signal.
•Controls the on-board diagnostic system and the fail-safe system if there is a malfunction
in the 4WD system.
4WD warning light•Illuminates or flashes to alert driver of a malfunction or control failure in the 4WD system.
PCM•Sends the throttle opening angle and engine speed signals, as CAN signals, to the 4WD
CM.
TCM•Sends the selector lever position and gear position signals, as CAN signals, to the 4WD
CM.
DSC HU/CM•Sends the four-wheel speed and DSC operating condition signals, as CAN signals, to the
4WD CM.
•Sends the coupling torque request signal, as a CAN signal, to the 4WD CM.

ELECTRONIC 4WD CONTROL SYSTEM
DIFFERENTIAL OIL TEMPERATURE SENSORA6E632227100203Function
•The differential oil temperature sensor detects the rear differential oil temperature based on the resistance of
the thermistor, and inputs it to the 4WD control modure (4WD CM).
Construction/Operation
•The differential oil temperature sensor is installed in the rear differential carrier.
•The differential oil temperature sensor uses a thermistor whose resistance changes according to changes in
the rear differential oil temperature.
•The resistance grows smaller as the oil temperature rises and vice-versa, as shown.

4WD WARNING LIGHTA6E632227100204Construction
•The 4WD warning light is built into the instrument cluster.
•If the self-diagnostic function stores a DTC, the warning light illuminates to alert the driver of the malfunction. If
system control is temporarily suspended due to the rear differential oil temperature becoming abnormally hot or
similar cause, the warning light flashes to alert the driver.
•The 4WD CM controls the operation of the warning light.

OUTLINEA6E692146444201•The construction and operation of ABS (ABS/TCS) is the same as that of the current Mazda6 (GG) L8, LF, L3
engine 2WD model, except for the following. (See Mazda6 Training Manual 3359-1*-02C.)
—Due to adoption of TCM, ABS (ABS/TCS) HU/CM sends 4-wheel speed signal to the TCM through CAN.
