SELF-DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE (WITH CONSULT-II)
Refer toTF-45, "SELF-DIAG RESULT MODE".
SELF-DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE (WITHOUT CONSULT-II)
Description
If the engine starts when there is something wrong with the 4WD system, the 4WD warning lamp turns ON or
flickers in the combination meter. When the system functions properly, the warning lamp turns ON when the
ignition switch is turned to “ON”, and it turns OFF after engine starts. To begin trouble diagnosis, start the self-
diagnosis function. The 4WD warning lamp in the combination meter will flicker according to the self-diagnos-
tic results. As for the details of the 4WD warning lamp flickering patterns, refer toTF-49, "
Diagnostic Proce-
dure (A/T models)",TF-49, "Diagnostic Procedure (M/T models)".
Diagnostic Procedure (A/T models)
1. Warm up engine.
2. Turn ignition switch “ON” and “OFF” at least twice, and then turn ignition switch “OFF”.
3. Move A/T selector lever to “P” position.
4. Turn 4WD shift switch to “2WD” position.
5. Turn ignition switch “ON”. (Do not start engine.)
6. 4WD warning lamp ON.
If 4WD warning lamp does not turn ON, refer toTF-91, "
4WD Warning Lamp Does Not Turn ON".
7. Move A/T selector lever to “R” position.
8. Turn 4WD shift switch to “2WD”, “4H” and “2WD” in order.
9. Move A/T selector lever to “P” position.
10. Turn 4WD shift switch to “4H”, “2WD” and “4H” in order.
11. Move A/T selector lever to “N” position.
12. Turn 4WD shift switch to “2WD” position.
13. Move A/T selector lever to “P” position.
14. Read the flickering of 4WD warning lamp.
Refer toTF-50, "
Judgement Self-diagnosis".
Diagnostic Procedure (M/T models)
1. Warm up engine.
2. Turn ignition switch “ON” and “OFF” at least twice, and then turn ignition switch “OFF”.
3. Move M/T shift lever to neutral position.
4. Turn 4WD shift switch to “2WD” position.
5. Turn ignition switch “ON”. (Do not start engine.)
6. 4WD warning lamp ON.
If 4WD warning lamp does not turn ON, refer toTF-91, "
4WD Warning Lamp Does Not Turn ON".
7. Move M/T shift lever to any position other than neutral.
8. Turn 4WD shift switch to “2WD”, “4H” and “2WD” in order.
9. Move M/T shift lever to neutral position.
10. Turn 4WD shift switch to “4H”, “2WD” and “4H” in order.
11. Move M/T shift lever to any position other than neutral.
12. Turn 4WD shift switch to “2WD” position.
13. Move M/T shift lever to neutral position.
14. Read the flickering of 4WD warning lamp.

TFNOTE:
If flickering pattern 12 or 13 is displayed, first erase self-diagnostic results. Flickering pattern 12 or 13 may be displayed after installing

ERASE SELF-DIAGNOSIS
lIn order to make it easier to find the cause of hard-to-duplicate malfunctions, malfunction information is
stored into the control unit as necessary during use by the user. This memory is not erased no matter how
many times the ignition switch is turned ON and OFF.
lHowever, this information is erased by turning ignition switch “OFF” after performing self-diagnostics or by
erasing the memory using the CONSULT-II.
