Diagnostic Information and Procedures
Oil Pressure CheckS6RW0D1504001
WARNING!
To avoid the danger of being burned, do not
touch the exhaust system when the system is
hot. Any service on the exhaust system
should be performed when the system is
cool.

NOTE
Prior to checking oil pressure, check the
following.
• Oil level in oil pan
If oil level is low, add oil up to full level
mark (hole) (1) on oil level gauge referring
to “Engine Oil and Filter Change in Section
0B”.
• Oil quality
If oil is discolored or deteriorated, change
it. For particular oil to be used, refer to
“Engine Oil and Filter Change in Section
0B”.
• Oil leaks
If leak is found, repair it.

1) Disconnect oil pressure switch coupler (1).
2) Remove oil pressure switch (2) from cylinder block.3) Install special tools (oil pressure gauge) to vacated
threaded hole of oil pressure switch.

Generator DescriptionS6RW0D1A01002
The basic charging system is the IC integral regulator charging system. The internal components are connected
electrically as shown below.
Charging System Circuit
The generator features a solid state regulator that is mounted inside the generator. All regulator components are
enclosed into a solid mold, and this unit along with the brush holder assembly is attached to the rear housing. The
regulator voltage is being controlled by ECM under some conditions while driving. Refer to “Generator Control System
Description in Section 1A” in related manual.
The generator rotor bearings contain enough grease to eliminate the need for periodic lubrication.
Two brushes carry current through the two slip rings to the field coil mounted on the rotor, and under normal conditions
will provide long period of attention-free service.
The stator windings are assembled inside a laminated core that forms part of the generator frame.
A rectifier bridge connected to the stator windings contains diodes, and electrically changes that stator AC. voltages to
a D.C. voltage which appears at the generator output terminal.

Precautions
Precaution for Rear Differential Oil LeakageS6RW0D3200001
Whenever vehicle is hoisted for any other service work than oil change, also be sure to check for oil leakage.
Precautions in Diagnosing TroubleS6RW0D3200002
• Do not disconnect the following parts before confirming diagnostic information (DTC, etc.) stored in 4WD control
module memory. These actions will erase memorized information in 4WD control module memory.
– Disconnection of coupler from 4WD control module
– Disconnection of battery cable from battery
– Disconnection of ground wire harness of 4WD control module
– Disconnect main fuse from fuse box
• Diagnostic information stored in 4WD control module memory can be cleared as well as checked by using SUZUKI
scan tool. Before using scan tool, read its Operator’s (Instruction) Manual carefully to have good understanding as
to what functions are available and how to use it.
• Be sure to read “Precautions for Electrical Circuit Service:” before inspection and observe what is written there.

General Description
Rear Differential DescriptionS6RW0D3201001
The differential assembly uses a hypoid bevel pinion and gear.
The differential assembly is decisive in that the drive power is concentrated there. Therefore, use of genuine parts and
specified torque is compulsory. Further, because of sliding tooth meshing with high pressure between hypoid bevel
pinion and gear, it is mandatory to lubricate them by hypoid gear oil.
Coupling DescriptionS6RW0D3201002
Coupling is installed in the forward of Rear differential. The road situation and driving are judged with 4WD control
module based on information from sensor and each control module, and the distribution of driving force of the front
and rear wheel has been changed by controlling the current to coupling. Coupling air temperature sensor is installed in
coupling case and measures the temperature in coupling.
4WD system has three driving positions (2WD, 4WD-auto, 4WD-lock). The position corresponding to the running
situation can be selected by 2WD/4WD switch.

Visual InspectionS6RW0D3204004
Check the following parts and systems visually.
DTC CheckS6RW0D3204005
1) Turn ignition switch to OFF position.
2) Connect SUZUKI scan tool to data link connector
(DLC) (1) located on underside of instrument panel.
Special tool
(A): SUZUKI scan tool
3) Turn ignition switch to ON position.
4) Read DTC according to instructions displayed on
SUZUKI scan tool and print it or write it down. Refer
to SUZUKI scan tool operator’s manual for further
details.
If communication between SUZUKI scan tool and
4WD control module is not possible, check if
SUZUKI scan tool is communicable by connecting it
to 4WD control module in another vehicle. If
communication is possible in this case, SUZUKI
scan tool is in good condition. Then check data link
connector and serial data line (circuit) in the vehicle
with which communication was not possible.
5) After completing the check, turn ignition switch OFF
and disconnect SUZUKI scan tool from data link
connector (DLC).
DTC ClearanceS6RW0D3204006
1) Turn ignition switch to OFF position.
2) Connect SUZUKI scan tool to data link connector
(DLC) (1) located on underside of instrument panel.
Special tool
(A): SUZUKI scan tool
3) Turn ignition switch to ON position.
4) Erase DTC according to instructions displayed on
SUZUKI scan tool. Refer to SUZUKI scan tool
operator’s manual for further details.
5) After completing clearance, turn ignition switch OFF
and disconnect SUZUKI scan tool from data link
connector (DLC).
6) Perform “DTC Check” and confirm that NO CODES
is displayed.
NOTE
DTC stored in 4WD control module memory
are also cleared in the following cases. Be
careful not to clear them before keeping their
record.
• When power to 4WD control module is cut
off (by disconnecting battery cable,
removing fuse or disconnecting 4WD
control module connectors).
• When the same malfunction (DTC) is not
detected again during 40 engine warm-up
cycles.
