System ComponentEDS000IJ
System DescriptionEDS000IK
ERECTRONIC COUPLING
lIn response to command current from 4WD control unit, control
clutch pull-in force is generated at the electromagnet and torque
is generated at the control clutch.
lThe cam operates in response to control clutch torque and
applies pressure to main clutch.
lMain clutch transmits torque from input shaft to output shaft,
according to the amount of pressure.
lThe actual amount of torque transfer is determined by control
current as shown in figure below (I-T characteristics figure).
4WD CONTROL UNIT
lControls distribution of drive power between front-wheel drive
(100:0) and 4WD (50:50) conditions circuit according to signals
from sensors.
lIf malfunction occurs in 4WD system, 4WD warning lamp turns
ON and vehicle changes to front-wheel drive.
lSelf-diagnosis can be done with CONSULT-II.

ALL MODE 4X4 SYSTEM
4WD MODE SWITCT
AUTO mode (AUTO indicator lamp ON)
lElectronic control allows optimal distribution of torque to front/rear wheels to match road conditions.
lMakes possible stable driving, with no wheel spin, on snowy roads or other slippery surfaces.
lOn roads which do not require 4WD, it contributes to improved fuel economy by driving in conditions close
to front-wheel drive.
lSensors determine the vehicle's turning condition, and in response tight cornering/braking are controlled
by distributing optimum torque to rear wheels.
NOTE:
lWhen driving in AUTO mode or LOCK mode, if there is a large difference between front and rear wheel
speed which continues for a long time, oil temperature of drive system parts becomes too high and 4WD
warning lamp flashes rapidly. (When 4WD warning lamp flashes, vehicle changes to front-wheel drive
conditions.)
lWhen driving in AUTO mode, 4WD warning lamp may flash slowly if there is a significant difference in
pressure or wear between tires. At this time, vehicle performance is not fully available and cautious driving
is required. (Continues until engine is turned OFF.)
lIf 4WD warning lamp is flashing rapidly, stop vehicle and allow it to idle for some time. Flashing will stop
and AUTO mode will be restored.
lIf the warning lamp flashes slowly during driving but remains OFF after engine is restarted, the system is
normal. If it again flashes slowly after driving for some time, vehicle must be inspected.
lWhen the difference of revolution speed between the front and rear wheel with AUTO mode the shift
switch occasionally changes to LOCK mode automatically. This is not malfunction.
LOCK mode (LOCK indicator lamp and AUTO indicator lamp ON)
lFront/rear wheel torque distribution is fixed, ensuring stable driving when climbing slopes.
lWhen LOCK mode is selected, vehicle will switch automatically to AUTO mode if vehicle speed increases.
If vehicle speed then decreases, the vehicle automatically returns to direct 4-wheel driving conditions.
NOTE:
If there is a significant difference in pressure or wear between tires, full vehicle performance is not available.
Tire conditions are detected, and LOCK mode may be prohibited, or else speeds at which LOCK mode is
enabled may be restricted.
2WD mode (indicator lamps OFF)
Vehicle is in front-wheel drive.
NOTE:
lIf front wheels are slipping in 2WD mode, do not switch to AUTO or LOCK. This can cause difficulties for
the system.
lThe shift switch even if the shift switch is in 2WD mode, the sift switch occasionally automatically change
to 4WD mode depending on the driving condition (For example; Depressing the acceleration firmly). this is
not malfunction. How ever, 4WD mode indicator lamp dose not illuminate.
4WD WARNING LAMP
Turns ON when there is a malfunction in 4WD system. It indicates that fail-safe mode is engaged and vehicle
is in 2WD.
Also turns ON when ignition switch is turned ON, for purpose of bulb check. Turns OFF approximately for 3
seconds after the engine starts if system is normal.

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.

3.INSPECTION USING 4WD MODE CHANGE-OVER SWITCH
lOn data monitor screen of the CONSULT-II, check 4WD mode switch.
lCheck if the display changes from ## to 2WD mode when the 2WD switch is pressed.
lCheck if the display changes from ## to AUTO mode when the AUTO switch is pressed.
lCheck if the display changes from ## to LOCK mode when the LOCK switch is pressed.
OK or NG
OK >> No malfunction detected.
NG >>
lNot in AUTO mode. (in 2WD or LOCK mode)
Countermeasure: Slightly depress the accelerator pedal and check that the operation mode
changes to LOCK mode.
lCheck circuit between 4WD mode switch harness connector M39 terminal No.1 (BR) and
4WD control unit harness connector E122 terminal No. 27 (BR).
(AUTO mode is not available because a malfunction is present in the 2WD mode harness.)
NOTICE:
Mechanism of 4WD mode change-over
l2WD mode: Operation changes to 2WD mode when 4WD control unit harness connector E122
terminal No. 27 (BR) is shorted to ground.
lAUTO mode: Operation changes to AUTO mode when 4WD control unit harness connector
E122 terminals No. 27 (BR) and No. 26 (L) is shorted to ground.
lLOCK mode: Operation changes to LOCK mode when 4WD control unit harness connector
E122 terminal No. 26 (L) is shorted to ground.
4WD MODES CANNOT BE SWITCHED AFTER ENGINE IS STARTED
1.INSPECTION USING 4WD MODE CHANGE-OVER SWITCH
lDrive modes cannot be switched after the engine is started.
lOn data monitor screen of the CONSULT-II, check 4WD mode switch.
lCheck if the display changes from ## to 2WD mode when the 2WD switch is pressed.
lCheck if the display changes from ## to AUTO mode when the AUTO switch is pressed.
lCheck if the display changes from ## to LOCK mode when the LOCK switch is pressed.
OK or NG
OK >> No malfunction detected.
NG >>
lCONSULT-II display does not change from ## when the 2WD switch is pressed. Check harness
of the 2WD switch.
lCONSULT-II display does not change from ## when the AUTO switch is pressed. Check har-
ness of the 2WD switch and LOCK switch.
lCONSULT-II display does not change from ## when the LOCK switch is pressed. Check har-
ness of the LOCK switch.
lPerform 4WD mode change-over switch inspection.
WHILE DRIVING, 4WD WARNING LAMP FLASHES RAPIDLY. (WHEN IT FLASHERS FOR
APPROX. ONE MINUTE, THEN DOES NOT ILLUMINATE.)
lWhile driving, 4WD warning lamp flashes rapidly. (when it flashes for approx. one minute, then does not
illuminate.)
Rapid flashing: 2 times/second
This phenomenon protects drivetrain parts when a heavy load is applied to the electronically controlled
coupling and multiple disc clutch temperature increases. It is not a malfunction.
When the difference of diameters by or with the front and rear wheel with AUTO mode the shift switch
occasionally changes to LOCK mode automatically. This is not a malfunction.
When the difference of revolution speed between the front and rear wheel with AUTO mode, the shift
switch occasionally changes to LOCK mode automatically. This is not a malfunction.
