TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS FOR SYMPTOMS
Revision: 2005 July 2005 FX
3. CHECK SYSTEM FOR AWD SOLENOID
Perform trouble diagnosis for AWD solenoid system. Refer to TF-28, "
AWD Solenoid" .
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 4.
NG >> Repair or replace damaged parts.
4. CHECK ELECTRIC CONTROLLED COUPLING
1. Turn ignition switch “OFF”.
2. Set the selector lever to “N” (neutral) position and disengage the parking brake.
3. Lift up the vehicle.
4. Rotate the rear propeller shaft by hand.
5. Hold front propeller shaft lightly.
Does front propeller shaft rotate?
YES >> Replace electric controlled coupling for mechanical malfunction (clutch sticking etc.). Refer to TF-
45, "Disassembly and Assembly" .
NO >> GO TO 5.
5. SYMPTOM CHECK
Check again.
OK or NG
OK >> INSPECTION END
NG >> GO TO 6.
6. CHECK AWD CONTROL UNIT
Check AWD control unit input/output signal. Refer to TF-20, "
AWD Control Unit Input/Output Signal Reference
Va l u e s" .
OK or NG
OK >> INSPECTION END
NG >> Check AWD control unit pin terminals for damage or loose connection with harness connector. If
any items are damaged, repair or replace damaged parts.
Vehicle Does Not Enter AWD Mode Even Though AWD Warning Lamp Turned to
OFF
ADS000U0
DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE
1. CHECK AWD SOLENOID
Check AWD solenoid. Refer to TF-30, "
COMPONENT INSPECTION" .
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 2.
NG >> Replace electric controlled coupling for malfunction of AWD solenoid. Refer to TF-45, "
Disassem-
bly and Assembly" .
2. CHECK AWD CONTROL UNIT
Check AWD control unit input/output signal. Refer to TF-20, "
AWD Control Unit Input/Output Signal Reference
Va l u e s" .
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 3.
NG >> Check AWD control unit pin terminals for damage or loose connection with harness connector. If any items are damaged, repair or replace damaged parts.

3. SYMPTOM CHECK
Check again.
OK or NG
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.

System DescriptionAES000Z0
TRANSMITTER
A sensor-transmitter integrated with a valve is installed on a wheel,
and transmits a detected air pressure signal in the form of a radio
wave.
REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY RECEIVER
The remote keyless entry receiver receives the air pressure signal
transmitted by the transmitter in each wheel.
