PRECAUTIONS
Revision: 2005 July 2005 FX
Service Notice or PrecautionsADS000RJ

Do not reuse transfer fluid, once it has been drained.

Check the fluid level or replace the fluid only with the vehicle parked on level ground.

During removal or installation, keep inside of transfer clear of dust or dirt.

Replace all tires at the same time. Always use tires of the proper size and the same brand and pattern.
Fitting improper size and unusual wear tires applies excessive force to vehicle mechanism and can cause
longitudinal vibration.

Disassembly should be done in a clean work area, it is preferable to work in dustproof area.

Before proceeding with disassembly, thoroughly clean the transfer. It is important to prevent the internal
parts from becoming contaminated by dirt or other foreign matter.

All parts should be carefully cleaned with a general purpose, non-flammable solvent before inspection or
reassembly.

Check for the correct installation status prior to removal or disassembly. If matching marks are required,
be certain they do not interfere with the function of the parts when applied.

Check appearance of the disassembled parts for damage, deformation, and unusual wear. Replace them
with a new ones if necessary.

Gaskets, seals and O-rings should be replaced any time when the transfer is disassembled.

In principle, tighten bolts or nuts gradually in several steps working diagonally from inside to outside. If
tightening sequence is specified, use it.

Observe the specified torque when assembling.

Clean and flush the parts sufficiently and blow-dry them.

Be careful not to damage sliding surfaces and mating surfaces.

Clean innerparts with lint-free cloth or towels. Do not use cotton work gloves and rags to prevent adhering
fibers.

3. SYMPTOM CHECK
Check again.

OK >> INSPECTION END
NG >> Replace electric controlled coupling for mechanical malfunction (mechanical engagement of
clutch is not possible.). Refer to TF-45, "
Disassembly and Assembly" .
While Driving, AWD Warning Lamp Flashes Rapidly (When Flashing in Approx.
1 Minute and Then Turning OFF)
ADS000U1
NOTE:
Rapid flashing: 2 times/second
This symptom protects drivetrain parts when a heavy load is applied to the electric controlled coupling and
multiple disc clutch temperature increases. Also, optional distribution of torque sometimes becomes rigid
before lamp flashes rapidly. Both cases are not malfunction.
When this symptom occurs, stop vehicle and allow it to idle for some times. Flashing will stop and system will
be restored.
While Driving, AWD Warning Lamp Flashes Slowly (When Continuing to Flash
until Turning Ignition Switch OFF)
ADS000U2
NOTE:
Slow flashing: 1 time/2 seconds
DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE
1. CHECK TIRE
Check the following.

Tire pressure

Wear condition

Longitudinal tire size (There is no difference between longitudinal tires.)
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 2.
NG >> Drive at vehicle speed of 20 km/h (12 MPH) or more for 5 seconds or more after repairing or
replacing damaged parts. (Initialize improper size tire information.)
2. CHECK INPUT SIGNAL OF TIRE DIAMETER
With CONSULT-II
1. Start engine.
2. Drive at 20 km/h (12 MPH) or more for approx. 200 seconds.
3. Select “DATA MONITOR” mode for “ALL MODE AWD/4WD” with CONSULT-II.
4. Check monitor “DIS-TIRE MONI”.
Display of
“DIS-TIRE MONI”
“0-4mm”>> INSPECTION END
Except for “0-4mm”>>GO TO 3.
