lIf a malfunction occurs in 4WD electrical system, and control unit detects the malfunction, 4WD warning
lamp on gauge turns ON to inform driver of system malfunction.
lWhen 4WD warning lamp is ON, the vehicle is in 2WD.
How to proceed with trouble diagnosisEDS000H5
BASIC CONCEPT
lThe most important point to perform trouble diagnosis is to understand vehicle systems (control and
mechanism) thoroughly.
lIt is also important to clarify customer complaints before inspec-
tion.
First of all, reproduce symptom, and understand it fully.
Ask customer about his/her complaints carefully. In some cases,
it will be necessary to check symptoms by driving vehicle with
customer.
CAUTION:
Customers are not professional. It is dangerous to make an
easy guess like "maybe the customer means that...," or
"maybe the customer mentions this symptom".
lIt is essential to check symptoms right from the beginning in
order to repair a malfunction completely.
For intermittent malfunction, reproduce symptom based on inter-
view with customer and past examples. Do not perform inspec-
tion on ad hoc basis. Most intermittent malfunctions are caused
by poor contacts. In this case, it will be effective to shake sus-
pected harness or connector by hand. When repairing without
any symptom diagnosis, you cannot judge if malfunction has
actually been eliminated.
lAfter completing diagnosis, always erase diagnostic memory.
Refer toTF-45, "
Operation procedure".
lFor intermittent malfunction, move harness or harness connector by hand. Then check poor contact or
false open circuit.

TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS
NOTE:
1. Light tight-corner braking symptom may occur depending on driving conditions in AUTO mode. This is not
malfunction.
2. Heavy tight-corner braking symptom occurs when vehicle is driven in the following conditions: LOCK
mode, steering wheel is turned fully to either sides, and accelerator pedal was depressed.
3. When the difference of revolution speed between the front and the rear wheels is large, the 4WD mode
does not change to other mode.this is not a malfunction.

4WD", and "SELF-DIAG RESULTS" on CONSULT-II screen in
this order.
CAUTION:
"ALL MODE 4WD" may not be displayed on the system
selection screen in the following case: When "START" was
touched just after engine is started or ignition switch is
turned to ON. In this case, repeat procedure from step 1.
4. DTC RESULT is displayed. (If necessary, touch "PRINT" to print self-diagnosis result.)
lIf "NO DTC IS DETECTED FURTHER TESTING MAY BE REQUIRED" is displayed. check 4WD warn-
ing lamp.
5. Check the malfunctioning part indicated by the chart to repair or replace.
6. Start engine and drive at approx. 30km/h(19MPH) for approx. 1minule.
CAUTION:
lCheck again to make sure that there is NO FAILURE on other parts.
lIf wheel sensor [Short-Circuit] is detected, 4WD warning lamp does not turn off until following
conditions: Vehicle is driven at approx. 30km/h(19MPH) for approx. 1minute, even in normal
conditions.
7. Turn OFF ignition switch to prepare for erasing memory.
8. Start engine. Touch "START," "ALL MODE 4WD," "SELF-DIAG RESULTS," and "ERASE" on CONSULT-II
screen in this order to erase fault memory.
