Detail of 4WD Control System Check
Step 1. Customer complaint analysis
Record details of the problem (failure, complaint) and how it occurred as described by the customer.
For this purpose, use of such a questionnaire form as shown in the following will facilitate collecting information to the
point required for proper analysis and diagnosis.
Customer questionnaire (Example)
NOTE
The form is a standard sample. It should be modified according to conditions characteristic of each
market.

Step 2. DTC check, record and clearance
First, referring to “DTC Check”, check DTC and pending
DTC. If DTC exists, print or write down DTC and then
clear malfunction DTC(s) by referring to “DTC
Clearance”. Malfunction DTC indicates malfunction in
the system but it is not possible to know from it whether
the malfunction is occurring now or it occurred in the
past and normal condition has been restored. In order to
know that, check symptom in question according to Step
5 and then recheck DTC according to Step 6.
Diagnosing a trouble based on the DTC in this step only
or failure to clear the DTC in this step may result in an
faulty diagnosis, trouble diagnosis of a normal circuit or
difficulty in troubleshooting which is otherwise
unnecessary.
Step 3 and 4. Visual inspection
As a preliminary step, be sure to perform visual check of
the items that support proper function of the 4WD control
system referring to “Visual Inspection”.
Step 5. Trouble symptom confirmation
Check trouble symptoms based on information obtained
in “Step 1. Customer complaint analysis: ” and “Step 2.
DTC check, record and clearance: ”.
Also, reconfirm DTC according to “DTC Confirmation
Procedure” described in each DTC flow.
Step 6 and 7. Rechecking and record of DTC
Refer to “DTC Check” for checking procedure.
Step 8. 4WD control symptom diagnosis
Check the parts of the system suspected as a possible
cause referring to “4WD Control Symptom Diagnosis”.
Step 9. Troubleshooting for DTC
Based on the DTC indicated in Step 6 / 7 and referring to
“applicable DTC flow”, locate the cause of the trouble,
namely in a sensor, switch, wire harness, connector,
coupling assembly, 4WD control module or other part
and repair or replace faulty parts.
Step 10. Check for intermittent problem
Check parts where an intermittent trouble is easy to
occur (e.g. wire harness, connector, etc.), referring to
“Intermittent and Poor Connection Inspection in Section
00” and related circuit of DTC recorded in Step 2.
Step 11. Final confirmation test
Confirm that the problem symptom has gone and the
vehicle is free from any abnormal conditions. If what has
been repaired is related to the malfunction DTC, clear
the DTC once and check to ensure that no malfunction
DTC is indicated.4WD Position Indicator Operation CheckS6RW0D3204002
1) Turn ignition switch to OFF position.
2) Check that 4WD position indicators turn on for about
2 seconds and then turns off.
If any faulty condition is found, proceed to “4WD
Position Indicator Does Not Come ON at Ignition
Switch ON but Engine Stops” or “4WD Position
Indicator Remains ON Steady at Ignition Switch ON”.
4WD Control System Operation InspectionS6RW0D3204003
NOTE
• It automatically changes into “4WD-auto”
position, when the vehicle speed becomes
specified speed or more at “4WD-lock”
position. It is “4WD-auto” position until
switch will be selected to “4WD-lock”
position at next time.
• When ABS operates while changed of each
position, it is discontinued of change. End
of the ABS operation, and then returned to
the position of before.

1) Inspect switch operation from “4WD-auto” to “2WD”
as follows.
a) Start engine.
b) Push 2WD/4WD switch to “2WD” position.
c) Check that 4WD AUTO indicator and 4WD
LOCK indicator not come ON.
2) Inspect switch operation from “2WD” to “4WD-auto”
as follows.
a) Start engine.
b) Push 2WD/4WD switch to “AUTO” position.
c) Check that 4WD AUTO indicator comes ON
steady and 4WD LOCK indicator not come ON.
3) Inspect switch operation from “4WD-auto” to “4WD-
lock” as follows.
a) Start engine.
b) Push 2WD/4WD switch to “LOCK” position, and
keep it for 3 seconds or more.
c) Check that 4WD AUTO indicator not come ON
and 4WD LOCK indicator comes ON steady.
4) Inspect switch operation from “4WD-lock” to “4WD-
auto” as follows.
a) Start engine.
b) Push 2WD/4WD switch to “AUTO” position.
c) Check that 4WD AUTO indicator comes ON
steady and 4WD LOCK indicator not come ON.

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.

4WD Position Indicator Does Not Come ON at Ignition Switch ON but Engine StopsS6RW0D3204013
Wiring Diagram
Circuit Description
4WD position indicator operates according to the signal from 4WD control module. If the 4WD control system is in
good condition, 4WD position indicator light up for 2 seconds when ignition switch is turned to ON position, and then
turned to OFF position. If an abnormality is detected in the system, 4WD position indicator remains lighting.
