Hydraulic Pressure In P/S Circuit Check
1) Clean where pipe is connected thoroughly, then disconnect
high pressure hose from high pressure pipe connector and
connect oil pressure gauge (special tool) as shown.
Special tool
(A) : 09915-77410
(B) : 09915-77420
2) Bleed air.
3) With engine running at idling speed, keep turning steering
wheel to the right and left till fluid in P/S fluid reservoir is
warmed to 50 to 60 °C (122 – 140 °F)
4) Back pressure check
With engine running at idling speed and hands off from
steering wheel, check hydraulic pressure.
If back pressure exceeds 980 kPa (10 kg/cm
2, 142 psi),
check control valve and pipes for obstruction.

5) Relief pressure check
a) Increase engine speed to about 1,500 to 1,600 rpm.
Close valve (6) gradually while watching pressure increase
indicated on gauge (4) and take reading of relief pressure
(maximum hydraulic pressure).
If higher than 8,400 kPa (85 kg/cm
2, 1208 psi), malfunction
of relief valve.
If lower than 6,400 kPa (65 kg/cm
2, 925 psi), failure of P/S
pump or settling of relief valve spring.
Relief pressure
6,400 – 8,400 kPa (65 – 85 kg/cm
2, 925 – 1208 psi)
b) Next, open gauge valve (6) fully and increase engine speed
to about 1,500 to 1,600 r/min. Then turn steering wheel to
the left or right fully and take reading of relief pressure.
If lower than 6,400 kPa (65 kg/cm
2, 1280 psi), failure in
steering gear.
Relief pressure
6,400 – 8,400 kPa (65 – 85 kg/cm
2, 925 – 1208 psi) CAUTION:
Be sure not to keep gauge valve closed for longer than
10 seconds.
Never keep steering wheel turned fully for longer than
10 seconds.

OPERATION
2WD
→ 4WD
When the transfer shift control lever is shifted from the 2WD (2H) position to the 4WD (4H or 4L) position, a 4WD
“ON” signal is transmitted to the 4WD controller which then activates VSV2 to apply vacuum in the intake mani-
fold to the chamber “B” in the hub housing.
When vacuum is applied, the slide gear is separated from the magnet, moves toward the center of the vehicle
body and gets engaged with the outer gear. In this way, the front axle shaft and the front wheel hub rotate as one
unit.
If vacuum in the circuit fails to reach 260 mmHg within 15 seconds after operation of VSV2 due to such trouble
as a hole in the vacuum pipe, the slide gear does not operate and the 4WD indicator light flashes to warn that
the hub is unlocked.

4WD
→ 2WD
When the transfer shift control lever is shifted from the 4WD (4H or 4L) to the 2WD (2H) position, the 4WD con-
troller activates VSV1 and the intake manifold vacuum is applied to the chamber “A” in the hub housing. As the
slide gear is shifted to the wheel side by the vacuum force and disengaged from the outer gear, rotation of the
front wheel hub is not transmitted to the front axle shaft.

4WD Controller and ITS Circuit Check
VOLTAGE CHECK
Check for input or output voltage of 4WD controller (1) (voltage
between each circuit and body ground) with 4WD controller con-
nector connected and ignition switch turned START (engine run).
* : With engine runningCAUTION:
Disable air bag system (if equipped with Air Bag), refer
to “Disabling Air Bag System” in Section 10B.
This check must be carried out in a well-ventilated
place.
