TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS

TROUBLE DIAGNOSISPFP:00004
Fail-Safe FunctionEDS001VE

If any malfunction occurs in 4WD electrical system, and control unit detects the malfunction, 4WD warning
lamp on combination meter turns ON to indicate system malfunction.

When 4WD warning lamp is ON, vehicle changes to front-wheel drive or shifting driving force-4WD (Rear-
wheels still have some driving torque).
How to Perform Trouble DiagnosisEDS001VF
BASIC CONCEPT

To perform trouble diagnosis, it is the most important to have understanding about vehicle systems (con-
trol and mechanism) thoroughly.

It 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".

It 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.

After completing diagnosis, always erase diagnostic memory.
Refer to TF-33, "
How to Erase Self-diagnostic Results" .

For intermittent malfunctions, move harness or harness connec-
tor by hand. Then check for poor contact or reproduced open circuit.

Trouble Diagnosis Chart for SymptomsEDS001VJ
If 4WD warning lamp turns ON, perform self-diagnosis. Refer to TF-32, "SELF-DIAG RESULT MODE" .
NOTE:

Light tight-corner braking symptom may occur depending on driving conditions in AUTO mode. This is not malfunction.

Heavy tight-corner braking symptom occurs when vehicle is driven in the following conditions: LOCK mode, steering
wheel is turned fully to either sides, and accelerator pedal was depressed.Symptom Condition Check item Reference page
4WD indicator lamp and LOCK indicator
lamp do not turn ON for approx. 1 second
when the ignition switch is turned to ON.

Operation Procedure
1. Perform “CONSULT-II SETTING PROCEDURE”. Refer to TF-31, "CONSULT-II SETTING PROCEDURE"
.
2. Start engine and drive at 30 km/h (19 MPH) or more for approx. 1 minute.
3. Stop vehicle. With engine at idle, touch “SELF-DIAG RESULTS”.
Display shows malfunction experienced since the last erasing
operation.
NOTE:

The details for “TIME” are as follow:
–“0”: Error currently detected with 4WD control unit.
–Except for “0”: Error detected in the past and memorized
with 4WD control unit.
Detects frequency of driving after DTC occurs (frequency
of turning ignition switch “ON/OFF”).
Display Item List
CAUTION:

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

Make sure that ABS warning lamp turns OFF by driving for a minute at vehicle speed of 30 km/h (19 MPH) or more after
turning ignition switch “OFF” if 4WD warning lamp turns ON with system malfunction of “ABS SYSTEM [C1203]”. 4WD
warning lamp may not turn OFF if it is normal unless ignition switch turns OFF at once and engine restarts after that.
