7D1-40 TRANSFER CONTROL SYSTEM
Memory erasing procedure
1. Prepare two pieces of short harness with the end sharped
like a needle (bout 20cm(7.9 in) long).
2. Turn OFF the ignition.
3. Remove the front left seat ASM.
4. Make the controller under the front left seat ASM (spread
the cut of the floor carpet).
5. Keeping the connector of the transfer controller connected,
set the short harness from the back of the connector as
illustrated.
6. Turn ON the ignition, wait for 2 seconds, and turn OFF the
ignition after confirming the relay sound.
7. Disconnect the short harness, turn ON the ignition again,
and confirm the “Check 4WD” lamp in the meter panel is
OFF.
8. Before erasing the memory, check that the circuit of the T/F
actuator position detection harness, etc. for it are normal.

After operation, indicator of target position blinks for 1.5 sec. at 2Hz, return to 2H
condition (4WD indicator going out)
Step Action Yes No
1 Keep to press the 4H button
(about 10 seconds).
Does the 4WD indicator blink at
2Hz for 15 seconds and then
blink at 4Hz? Failed actuator motor.
Disconnection of controller motor

Transfer cannot shift to a position other than 4H.
When shifting from 4H to other position, indicator (4WD, 4Lo, Check4WD, neutral) does
not respond (Only 4WD keeps lighting).
Step Action Yes No
1 Is the ignition switch ON? Go to step 2. Failed 4WD indicator and
harness.
After repairing, trace this chart
from the beginning.
2 Does the transfer-related
indicators (4WD, 4Lo, Check
4WD, neutral) light up for 2
seconds when the ignition
switch is turned ON?
Then, only 4H lights up. Go to step 3. Indicator lamps other than the
4WD indicator are burnt out.
(Check for GND short circuit
between the 4WD indicator and
transfer controller.)
Disconnected harness wire.
After repairing, trace this chart
from the beginning.
3 Press the 2H button.
Is the sound of relay heard from
under the seat, and the sound of
running motor heard? Failed controller.
After replacing the controller,
trace this chart from the
beginning. *Failed operation switch. Or
disconnected or shorted of the
harness for the operation switch.
* The operation switch is an analog type switch which reads the internal composite resistance value at the time of
operation. If an abnormal value is detected, it is judged to be an instruction to 4H.

Though the indicator responds when shifting from 4H to 2H(or other position), it returns
to 4H.
Step Action Yes No
1 Is the ignition switch ON? Go to step 2. Turn the ignition switch ON and
trace this chart from the
beginning.
2 Does the transfer-related
indicators (4WD, 4Lo, Check
4WD, neutral) light up for 2
seconds when the ignition
switch is turned ON? Go to step 3. Indicator lamp burnt out.
Disconnected harness wire.
After repairing, trace this chart
from the beginning.
3 After 2 seconds, check if the
Check4WD lamp lights up.
Is the Check4WD lamp OFF? Go to step 4. Failed actuator position detection
(limit) switch (LS1, LS2, LS3,
LS4, GND).
Short or disconnection of harness
of this detection switch.
Refer to paragraph of
Check4WD.
After repairing, trace this chart
from the beginning.
4 Press the 2H button.
Is the sound of relay heard from
the transfer controller? Go to step 5. Failed controller.
Replace the controller and trace
this chart from the beginning.
5 Is the sound of running motor
heart? Failed control system of the
transfer mechanism. Check and
repair and trace this chart from
the beginning. Failed actuator motor.
Disconnection of controller motor
drive output circuit or GND short.
After repairing, trace this chart
from the beginning.
If the motor does not or cannot run at all (stuck transfer mechanism, disconnected motor, failed drive circuit), the
lamp blinks at 4Hz when the position is shifted to other position by pressing the button for more 10 seconds (20
seconds in case of neutral position).
