8. CHECK DTC
Perform the self-diagnosis, after driving a vehicle for a while.
OK or NG
OK >> Inspection End.
NG >> Replace transfer control unit. Refer to TF-132, "
Removal and Installation" .
COMPONENT INSPECTION
Clutch Pressure Solenoid
1. Turn ignition switch “OFF”. (Stay for at least 5 seconds.)
2. Disconnect transfer terminal cord assembly harness connector.
3. Check resistance between transfer terminal cord assembly ter-
minals 6 and 19.
4. If NG, replace clutch pressure solenoid. Refer to TF-22, "
Loca-
tion of Electrical Parts" .
Transfer Dropping Resistor
1. Turn ignition switch “OFF”. (Stay for at least 5 seconds.)
2. Disconnect transfer dropping resistor harness connector.
3. Check resistance between transfer dropping resistor terminals 1
and 2.
4. If NG, replace transfer dropping resistor. Refer to TF-22, "

CONSULT-II REFERENCE VALUE IN DATA MONITOR MODE
Data are reference value.
TRANSFER CONTROL UNIT TERMINALS AND REFERENCE VALUE
Data are reference value and are measured between each terminal and ground.
CAUTION:
When using a circuit tester to measure voltage for inspection, be sure not to extend forcibly any connector terminals.
DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE
1. CHECK 4WD SHIFT SWITCH SYSTEM
Perform self-diagnosis. Refer to TF-50, "
Self-diagnostic Procedure" .
Is the "4WD MOD SW [P1814]" (with CONSULT-II) or "Flickering pattern: 16 (without CONSULT-II) detected?
YES >> Perform trouble diagnosis for 4WD shift switch. Refer to TF-62, "4WD Shift Switch" .
NO >> GO TO 2.
