Trouble Diagnosis IntroductionEHS000WA
CAUTION:
Do not use electrical test equipment on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to do so in
this Service Manual. SRS wiring harnesses can be identified by yellow and/or orange harness con-
nectors.
Do not attempt to repair, splice or modify SRS wiring harnesses. If a harness is damaged, replace
it with a new one.
Keep ground connections clean.
DIAGNOSIS FUNCTION
The SRS self-diagnosis results can be read by using “AIR BAG” warning lamp and/or CONSULT-II.
The User mode is exclusively prepared for the customer (driver). This mode warns the driver of a system mal-
function through the operation of the “AIR BAG” warning lamp.
The Diagnosis mode allows the technician to locate and inspect the malfunctioning part.
The mode applications for the “AIR BAG” warning lamp and CONSULT-II are as follows:
HOW TO PERFORM TROUBLE DIAGNOSES FOR QUICK AND ACCURATE REPAIR
A good understanding of the malfunction conditions can make troubleshooting faster and more accurate.
In general, each customer feels differently about a malfunction. It is important to fully understand the symp-
toms or conditions for a customer complaint.

Service NoticeEDS0017L
1. Before proceeding with disassembly, thoroughly clean the outside of the all-mode 4WD transfer. It is
important to prevent the internal parts from becoming contaminated by dirt or other foreign matter.
2. Disassembly should be done in a clean work area.
3. Use lint-free cloth or towels for wiping parts clean. Common shop rags can leave fibers that could interfere
with the operation of the all-mode 4WD transfer.
4. Place disassembled parts in order for easier and proper assembly.
5. All parts should be carefully cleaned with a general purpose, non-flammable solvent before inspection or
reassembly.
6. Gaskets, seals and O-rings should be replaced any time the all-mode 4WD transfer is disassembled.
7. It is very important to perform functional tests whenever they are indicated.
8. The valve body contains precision parts and requires extreme care when parts are removed and serviced.
Place removed parts in a parts rack in order to replace them in correct positions and sequences. Care will
also prevent springs and small parts from becoming scattered or lost.
9. Properly installed valves, sleeves, plugs, etc. will slide along bores in valve body under their own weight.
10. Before assembly, apply a coat of recommended ATF to all parts. Apply petroleum jelly to protect O-rings
and seals, and to hold bearings and washers in place during assembly. Do not use grease.
11. Extreme care should be taken to avoid damage to O-rings, seals and gaskets when assembling.
12. After overhaul, refill the transfer with new ATF.
13. When the all-mode 4WD transfer drain plug is removed, only some of the fluid is drained. Old all-mode
4WD transfer fluid will remain in torque converter and ATF cooling system. Always follow the proper pro-
cedure. Refer to MA-24, "
Changing Transfer Fluid" .
Wiring Diagrams and Trouble DiagnosisEDS001CE
When you read wiring diagrams, refer to the following:
GI-15, "How to Read Wiring Diagrams" .
PG-4, "POWER SUPPLY ROUTING CIRCUIT" for power distribution circuit.
When you perform trouble diagnosis, refer to the following:
GI-11, "HOW TO FOLLOW TEST GROUPS IN TROUBLE DIAGNOSES".
GI-27, "How to Perform Efficient Diagnosis for an Electrical Incident".

Condition Content 4WD warning lamp
During self-diagnosis Indicates the malfunction position by number of flickers. Flickers at malfunction mode.
Lamp check*Checks the lamp by turning ON during engine starting. After
engine starts, it turns OFF if there are no malfunctions.ON
Malfunction in 4WD system*Turns ON to indicate malfunction. When ignition switch is
turned to “OFF” or the malfunction is corrected, it turns OFF.ON
When vehicle is driven with different
diameters of front and rear tiresFlickers once every 2 seconds.
Turns OFF when ignition switch is “OFF”.Flickers once every 2 sec-
onds.
High fluid temperature in transfer unitWhen fluid temperature is high or fluid temperature sensor cir-
cuit is shorted, it flickers twice every second.
It turns OFF when fluid temperature becomes normal.Flickers twice a second.
Other than above (System is nor-
mal.)Lamp is OFF. OFF
