3. Engage cam ring and side gear, and then differential is locked.
System DescriptionEDS003AR
DIFFERENTIAL LOCK SOLENOID
It is operated by signal from differential lock control unit, and it operates pressure plate so as to switch lock/
unlock.
DIFFERENTIAL LOCK POSITION SWITCH
It detects that differential is in lock or unlock by pressure plate position, and sends it to differential lock control
unit.
DIFFERENTIAL LOCK CONTROL UNIT
lDifferential lock control unit controls differential lock solenoid by input signals of each sensor and each
switch.
lAs a fail-safe function, differential lock disengages, if malfunction is detected in differential lock system.
lSelf-diagnosis can be done with CONSULT-II.
DIFFERENTIAL LOCK MODE SWITCH
Able to select differential lock and unlock.
DIFF LOCK INDICATOR LAMP
The following is the indications of indicator lamp.
NOTE:
Differential lock standby condition is the condition that differential lock mode switch is ON and differential is unlocked.

Condition DIFF LOCK indicator lamp
Differential lock/unlock ON/OFF
Differential lock standby condition Flashing: 1 time/2 seconds
Differential lock system malfunction OFF (Even if differential lock mode switch is turned ON)
Lamp checkTurns ON when ignition switch is turned ON.
Turns OFF after engine start.

CAN CommunicationEDS003AT
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
CAN (Controller Area Network) is a serial communication line for real time application. It is an on-vehicle mul-
tiplex communication line with high data communication speed and excellent error detection ability. Many elec-
tronic control units are equipped onto a vehicle, and each control unit shares information and links with other
control units during operation (not independent). In CAN communication, control units are connected with 2
communication lines (CAN H line, CAN L line) allowing a high rate of information transmission with less wiring.
Each control unit transmits/receives data but selectively reads required data only.
For details, refer toDI-65, "
CAN Communication Unit".

turns differential lock solenoid OFF.
How to Perform Trouble DiagnosisEDS003AV
BASIC CONCEPT
lTo perform trouble diagnosis, it is the most important to have understanding about vehicle systems (con-
trol and mechanism) thoroughly.
lIt is also important to clarify customer complaints before inspec-
tion.
First of all, reproduce symptoms, and understand them fully.
Ask customer about his/her complaints carefully. In some cases,
it will be necessary to check symptoms by driving vehicle with
customer.
CAUTION:
Customers are not professional. It is dangerous to make an
easy guess like "maybe the customer means that...," or
"maybe the customer mentions this symptom".
lIt is essential to check symptoms right from the beginning in
order to repair malfunctions completely.
For intermittent malfunctions, reproduce symptoms based on
interview with customer and past examples. Do not perform
inspection on ad hoc basis. Most intermittent malfunctions are
caused by poor contacts. In this case, it will be effective to shake
suspected harness or connector by hand. When repairing with-
out any symptom diagnosis, you cannot judge if malfunctions
have actually been eliminated.
lAfter completing diagnosis, always erase diagnostic memory.
Refer toRFD-52, "
How to Erase Self-diagnostic Results".
lFor intermittent malfunctions, move harness or harness connec-
tor by hand. Then check for poor contact or reproduced open circuit.
