5. CHECK RAS CONTROL UNIT OUTPUT SIGNAL
1. Connect RAS control unit harness connector B476 and RAS
motor relay harness connector B480.
2. Check voltage between RAS motor relay harness connector
B480 and ground.
OK or NG
OK >> Check RAS motor relay separately from other parts.
Refer to STC-50, "
RAS MOTOR RELAY" .
NG >> RAS control unit malfunction (replacement)
Inspection 3: RAS Motor Output MalfunctionNGS000ES
1. CHECK RAS CONTROL UNIT CONNECTOR
1. Turn ignition switch OFF, disconnect RAS control unit harness connector and RAS motor harness connec-
tor, and check terminal for deformation, disconnection, looseness, etc.
2. Reconnect harness connector securely, and perform self-diagnosis.

Without CONSULT-II
Is above displayed on self-diagnosis display?
YES >> GO TO 2.
NO >> Connector terminal connection is loose, damaged, open, or shorted. Repair or replace the termi-
nal.
2. CHECK RAS MOTOR RESISTANCE
1. Turn ignition switch OFF, and disconnect RAS motor harness connector B463.
2. Check the resistance RAS motor connector.
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 3.
NG >> RAS motor malfunction. Replace RAS motor.1–Ground

RAS MOTOR RELAY
1. Check the resistance between RAS motor relay connector
B480.
2. When applying or not supplying approximately 12 V between
RAS motor relay connector, check continuity RAS motor relay
connector B480.
RAS MOTOR
1. Check the resistance RAS motor connector B463.
2. Remove RAS motor from RAS actuator, and then turn the motor
by 6 V battery.
CAUTION:
Do not apply 12 V (battery voltage) to the RAS motor termi-
nal because RAS motor might be damaged.
REAR WHEEL STEERING ANGLE SENSOR
1. Disconnect rear wheel steering angle sensor harness connector B465.
2. Check resistance of rear wheel steering angle sensor connec-
tors B465.Terminal 1 – 2 : Approx. 74 Ω

CONSULT-II SETTING PROCEDURE
Refer to GI-38, "CONSULT-II Start Procedure" .
SELF-DIAG RESULT MODE
Operation Procedure
1. Perform “CONSULT-II Start Procedure”. Refer to GI-38, "CONSULT-II Start 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 AWD control unit.
–Except for “0”: Error detected in the past and memorized
with AWD 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 AWD warning lamp turns ON with system malfunction of “ABS SYSTEM [C1203]”. AWD
warning lamp may not turn OFF if it is normal unless ignition switch turns OFF at once and engine restarts after that.
How to Erase Self-Diagnostic Results
1. Perform applicably inspection of malfunctioning item and then repair or replace.
2. Start engine and drive at 30 km/h (19 MPH) or more for approx. 1 minute.
3. Make sure that ABS warning lamp turns OFF.

Data are reference value.
DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE

Check the following if “4WD ACTUATOR RLY [C1205]” is displayed in self-diagnosis results of CONSULT-
II.
1. CHECK AWD SOLENOID SYSTEM
Perform self-diagnosis. Refer to TF-22, "
SELF-DIAG RESULT MODE" .
Is the
“4WD SOLENOID [C1204]” displayed?
YES >> Perform trouble diagnosis for AWD solenoid. Refer to TF-28, "AWD Solenoid" .
NO >> GO TO 2.
2. CHECK AWD ACTUATOR RELAY SIGNAL
With CONSULT-II
1. Turn ignition switch “ON”. (Do not start engine.)
2. Select “DATA MONITOR” mode for “ALL MODE AWD/4WD” with CONSULT-II.
3. Start engine and read out ON/OFF signal of “ETS ACTUATOR”.
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 4.
NG >> GO TO 3.
3. CHECK AWD CONTROL UNIT
Check AWD control unit input/output signal. Refer to TF-20, "
AWD Control Unit Input/Output Signal Reference
Va l u e s" .
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 4.
NG >> Check AWD control unit pin terminals for damage or loose connection with harness connector. If
any items are damaged, repair or replace damaged parts. 1 - 2 : Approx. 2.45Ω
