CONTROL VALVE

Check resistance between terminals of 4WD solenoid valve, 2-
4WD shift solenoid valve and transfer fluid temperature sensor.
Refer to TF-95, "
Component Inspection" .

Check sliding faces of control valves and plugs for abnormality.
If any is found, replace the control valve assembly with new one.
Refer to TF-154, "
Control Valve" .
CAUTION:
Replace control valve body together with clutch return
spring as a set.

Check each control valve spring for damage or distortion, and
also check its free length, outer diameter and wire diameter. If
any damage or fatigue is found, replace control valve body with
new one. Refer to TF-154, "
Control Valve" .
CAUTION:
Replace control valve body together with clutch return spring
as a set.
CLUTCH

Check drive plate facings and driven plate for damage, cracks or
other abnormality. If any abnormalities are found, replace with
new one.

Check the thickness of drive plate facings and driven plate.
Refer to TF-153, "
CLUTCH" .
CAUTION:

Measure facing thickness at 3 points to take an average.

Check all the drive and driven plates.

Check return spring for damage or deformation.

Do not remove spring from the plate
