TRANSFER CASE 7D-3
General Description
RUW34DLF000701
The transfer case is used to provide a means of
providing power flow to the front axle. The transfer case
also provides a means of disconnecting the front axle,
providing better fuel economy and quieter operation
when the vehicle is driven on improved roads where
four wheel drive is not required. In addition, the transfer
case provides an additional gear reduction when placed
in low range, which is useful when difficult off-road
conditions are encountered.
Use the 4WD switch on the center cluster panel to
select the drive range. The 4WD indicator lamp will be
lit when 4WD is selected.

TRANSFER CASE 7D-7
Removal
NOTE: Before removing transmission and transfer
assembly from vehicle, change the transfer mode to
2WD using the 4WD push button switch on dash panel.
1.
Disconnect battery ground cable.
2.
Raise and support vehicle with suitable stands. Drain
transfer case fluid.
3. Remove the center exhaust pipe(5). (6VE1 only)
4.
Remove rear propeller shaft (1) and front propelle
r
shaft (2)(3).
NOTE: Apply alignment marks on the flange at both
front and rear sides.
5.
Disconnect harness connectors and clip.
Connector: transfer switch, 2WD-4WD actuator,
speed sensor.
NOTE: Avoid turning the vehicle ignition switch to the
ON position when the 2WD-4WD connector is removed
(battery connected).
If the ignition switch must be turned to the ON position,
the controller must first be removed (memory must be
cleared because the CHECK 4WD INDICATOR will
light).
6.
Remove transfer case (4) from the vehicle.
Installation
1.
Apply a thin coat of molybdenum disulfide grease to
the input shaft spline as shown in the figure.

System Components
Parts Location
Speed sensor
Revolutions of the rear output shaft are decreased and taken
out by the speed/drive/driven gears installed in the transfer
case and the number of revolutions is detected with a speed
sensor.
About 4/3 pulses per revolution of the shaft is output.
4WD switch
The 4WD switch detects the movement of the shift rod driving
the 4
2 - 4
4 sleeve.
PUSH open is achieved with the PUSH open switch when the
shift rod is at the 42 position.
