SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
Refer to LAN-5, "CAN COMMUNICATION" .
Component parts Function
Transfer control unit Controls transfer control device and control valves.
Transfer control device Actuator motor and actuator position switch are integrated so as to switch driving types.
2-4WD shift solenoid valve Controls oil pressure and allows selection between 2WD and 4WD.
Clutch pressure solenoid valve Controls oil pressure and distributes torque (front and rear).
Line pressure switch Detects line pressure.
Clutch pressure switch Detects clutch pressure.
Transfer fluid temperature sen-
sorDetects transfer fluid temperature.
Wait detection switch Detects whether or not 4WD lock gear is locked.
Neutral-4LO switch Detects that transfer is under neutral-4LO condition (or shifting through neutral).
ATP switch Detects that transfer is under neutral condition.
4WD shift switch Allows selection from 2WD, AUTO, 4H or 4LO.
4WD warning lamp

Illuminates if malfunction is detected in electrical system of 4WD system.

There is 1 blink every 2 seconds if rotation difference of front wheels and rear wheels is large.

There is 2 blinks every 1 second if high transfer fluid temperature is detected.
ATP warning lampIndicates that A/T parking mechanism does not operate when A/T selector lever is in “P” position
and transfer is under neutral condition.
4WD shift indicator lamp Displays driving condition selected by 4WD shift switch.
4LO indicator lamp Displays 4LO condition.
ABS actuator and electric unit
(control unit)Transmits vehicle speed signal via CAN communication to transfer control unit.
TCMTransmits the following signals via CAN communication to transfer control unit.

Output shaft revolution signal

A/T position indicator signal (PNP switch signal)
ECMTransmits the following signals via CAN communication to transfer control unit.

Engine speed signal

Accelerator pedal position signal

TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS
Revision: October 20052005 QX56
CAUTION:

If “CAN COMM CIRCUIT [U1000]” is displayed with other DTCs, first perform the trouble diagnosis for CAN communica-
tion line.

If “VHCL SPEED SEN·AT [P1808]”, “ABS OP SIG [P1830]”, “VDC OP SIG [P1831]” or “TCS OP SIG [P1832]” is displayed,
first perform the trouble diagnosis for ABS system.

If “VHCL SPEED SEN·AT [P1808]”, is displayed, first perform the trouble diagnosis for A/T system.
NOTE:

If "SHIFT ACT POSI SW [P1818]" or “SHIFT ACT CIR [P1819]” is displayed, first erase self-diagnostic results. ("SHIFT ACT POSI
SW [P1818]" or “SHIFT ACT CIR [P1819]” may be displayed after installing transfer control unit or transfer assembly.)

If “CL PRES SW [P1827]” or “LINE PRES SW [P1828]” is displayed only while driving in reverse, check the continuity of “R” posi-
tion on A/T PNP switch. When there is nothing wrong with the electrical system, check the hydraulic system. SHIFT ACT CIR
[P1819]

Transfer control device actuator circuit is shorted or open. (Mal-
functions are detected when transfer shift relay circuit is open/
shorted or relay monitor circuit is open/shorted.)

Malfunction occurs in transfer control device drive circuit.

Malfunction is detected in transfer shut off relay.TF-81, "
Transfer Control Device"
Malfunction is detected in transfer shut off relay.TF-54, "Power Supply Circuit For
Transfer Control Unit"
ENGINE SPEED SIG
[P1820]
Malfunction is detected in engine speed signal that is output from
ECM through CAN communication.

Improper signal is input while driving.TF-85, "
Engine Speed Signal
(ECM)"
DUTY SOLENOID
[P1822]
Proper voltage is not applied to clutch pressure solenoid valve
due to open or short circuit.TF-86, "Clutch Pressure Sole-
noid"
2-4WD SOLENOID
[P1823]
Proper voltage is not applied to 2-4WD solenoid valve due to
open or short circuit.TF-91, "2-4WD Solenoid"
MOTOR RELAY
[P1824]
Motor does not operate properly due to open or short circuit in
transfer motor or motor relay.TF-95, "Transfer Motor"
OIL TEMP SEN
[P1826]
Signal voltage from fluid temperature sensor is abnormally high
(Transfer fluid temperature is abnormally low) while driving.TF-102, "Transfer Fluid Temper-
ature"
CLUTCH PRES SW
[P1827]
Improper signal from clutch pressure switch is input due to open
or short circuit.

Malfunction occurs in clutch pressure switch or hydraulic circuit.TF-105, "
Clutch Pressure
Switch"
LINE PRES SW
[P1828]
Improper signal from line pressure switch is input due to open or
short circuit.

Malfunction occurs in line pressure switch or hydraulic circuit.TF-108, "
Line Pressure Switch"
THROTTLE POSI SEN
[P1829]

Malfunction is detected in accelerator pedal position signal that is
output from ECM through CAN communication.

Signal voltage from accelerator pedal position sensor is abnor-
mally high or low.T F - 111 , "
Throttle Position Signal
(ECM)"
ABS OP SIG
[P1830]
Malfunction is detected in ABS operation signal that is output
from ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) through CAN
communication.T F - 111 , "ABS Operation Signal
(ABS)"
VDC OP SIG
[P1831]
Malfunction is detected in VDC operation signal that is output
from ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) through CAN
communication.TF-112, "VDC Operation Signal
(ABS)"
TCS OP SIG
[P1832]
Malfunction is detected in TCS operation signal that is output
from ABS through CAN communication.TF-112, "TCS Operation Signal

Bearing

Make sure the bearings roll freely and are free from noise, pit-
ting and cracks.
Main Oil Pump
1. Check the inner and outer circumference, tooth face, and side-
face of the inner and outer gears for damage or abnormal wear.
2. Measure the side clearance between the main oil pump housing
edge and the inner and outer gears.
3. Make sure the side clearance is within specification. If the mea-
surement is out of specification, replace the inner and outer
gears with new ones as a set. Refer to TF-163, "
Main Oil Pump"
.
Sub-oil Pump
1. Check the inner and outer circumference, tooth face, and side-
face of the inner and outer gears for damage or abnormal wear.
2. Measure the side clearance between the sub oil pump housing
edge and the inner and outer gears.
3. Make sure the side clearance is within specification. If the mea-
surement is out of specification, replace the inner and outer
gears with new ones as a set. Refer to TF-163, "
Sub-oil Pump" .
Control Valve

Check resistance between the terminals of the clutch pressure
solenoid valve, 2-4WD shift solenoid valve, clutch pressure
switch and the transfer fluid temperature sensor. Refer to TF-90,
"COMPONENT INSPECTION" (clutch pressure solenoid
valve), TF-94, "
COMPONENT INSPECTION" (2-4WD solenoid
valve), TF-107, "
COMPONENT INSPECTION" (clutch pressure
switch) and TF-104, "
COMPONENT INSPECTION" (transfer
fluid temperature sensor).
