< SERVICE INFORMATION >
ALL-MODE 4WD SYSTEM
LINE PRESSURE SWITCH
• With the transfer system design, control of the oil pressure provides the transmission of drive torque to the
front wheels. The main pressure to control the oil pressure is referred to as the line pressure.
• The line pressure switch determines whether or not adequate line pressure has built up under different oper-
ating conditions.
• The line pressure switch turns ON when line pressure is produced.
• The line pressure switch senses line pressure abnormalities and turns the 4WD warning lamp ON.
CLUTCH PRESSURE SWITCH
• The clutch pressure switch determines whether or not adequate clutch pressure has built up under different
operating conditions.
• The clutch pressure switch turns ON when clutch pressure is produced.
• The clutch pressure switch senses clutch pressure abnormalities and turns the 4WD warning lamp ON.
TRANSFER FLUID TEMPERATURE SENSOR
The transfer temperature sensor detects the transfer fluid temperature and sends a signal to the transfer con-
trol unit.
TRANSFER CONTROL UNIT
• Transfer control unit controls transfer control device by input signals of each sensor and each switch.
• Self-diagnosis can be done.
TRANSFER CONTROL DEVICE
The transfer control device changes the state of transfer assembly between 2WD, AUTO, 4H⇔4LO with the
2WD, AUTO, 4H and 4LO signals of 4WD shift switch.
NOTE:
• To shift between 4H⇔4LO, stop the vehicle, depress the brake pedal and shift the transmission selector to
the "N" position. Depress and turn the 4WD shift switch. The shift switch will not shift to the desired mode if
the transmission is not in "N" or the vehicle is moving. The 4LO indicator lamp will be lit when the 4LO is
engaged.
• Actuator motor and actuator position switch are integrated.
4WD SHIFT SWITCH AND INDICATOR LAMP
4WD Shift Switch
The 4WD shift switch allows selection from 2WD, AUTO, 4H or 4LO.
4WD Shift Indicator Lamp
• Displays driving conditions selected by 4WD shift switch with 2WD, AUTO and 4H indicators while engine is
running. (When 4WD warning lamp is turned on, all 4WD shift indicator lamps are turned off.)
• Turns ON for approximately 1 second when ignition switch is turned ON, for purpose of lamp check.
4LO Indicator Lamp
• Displays 4LO condition while engine is running. 4LO indicator lamp flashes if transfer gear does not shift
completely under 2WD, AUTO, 4H⇔4LO. (When 4WD warning lamp is turned on, 4LO indicator lamp is
turned off.)
• Turns ON for approximately 1 second when ignition switch is turned ON, for purpose of lamp check.
4WD WARNING LAMP
Turns ON or FLASH when there is a malfunction in 4WD system.
Also turns ON when ignition switch is turned ON, for purpose of lamp check. Turns OFF for approximately 1
second after the engine starts if system is normal.
4WD Warning Lamp Indication
Condition Content 4WD warning lamp
During self-diagnosis Indicates the malfunction position by number of flickers. Flickers at malfunction mode.
Lamp check*Checks the lamp by turning ON during engine starting. After
engine starts, it turns OFF if there are no malfunctions.ON
Malfunction in 4WD system*Turns ON to indicate malfunction. When ignition switch is
turned to “OFF” or the malfunction is corrected, it turns OFF.ON
When vehicle is driven with different
diameters of front and rear tiresFlickers once every 2 seconds.
Turns OFF when ignition switch is “OFF”.Flickers once every 2 sec-
onds.

ATP WARNING LAMP
Even if A/T selector lever is in “P” position, vehicle may move because A/T parking mechanism does not oper-
ate when transfer is under neutral condition. ATP warning lamp is turned on so as to indicate this condition to
the driver.

TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS
CAUTION:
• If “CAN COMM CIRCUIT [U1000]” is displayed with other DTCs, first perform the trouble diagnosis for CAN communication
line.
• If “VHCL SPEED SEN·AT [P1808]”, “ABS OP SIG [P1830]”, “VDC OP SIG [P1831]” or “TCS OP SIG [P1832]” is displayed, first
perform the trouble diagnosis for ABS system.
• If “VHCL SPEED SEN·AT [P1808]”, is displayed, first perform the trouble diagnosis for A/T system.
NOTE:
• If "SHIFT ACT POSI SW [P1818]" or “SHIFT ACT CIR [P1819]” is displayed, first erase self-diagnostic results. ("SHIFT ACT POSI SW
[P1818]" or “SHIFT ACT CIR [P1819]” may be displayed after installing transfer control unit or transfer assembly.)
• If “CL PRES SW [P1827]” or “LINE PRES SW [P1828]” is displayed only while driving in reverse, check the continuity of “R” position
on A/T PNP switch. When there is nothing wrong with the electrical system, check the hydraulic system.

TRANSFER ASSEMBLY
1. Check the inner and outer circumference, tooth face, and side-
face of the inner and outer gears for damage or abnormal wear.
2. Measure the side clearance between the main oil pump housing
edge and the inner and outer gears.
3. Make sure the side clearance is within specification. If the mea-
surement is out of specification, replace the inner and outer
gears with new ones as a set. Refer to TF-166, "
Inspection and
Adjustment".
Sub-oil Pump
1. Check the inner and outer circumference, tooth face, and side-
face of the inner and outer gears for damage or abnormal wear.
2. Measure the side clearance between the sub oil pump housing
edge and the inner and outer gears.
3. Make sure the side clearance is within specification. If the mea-
surement is out of specification, replace the inner and outer
gears with new ones as a set. Refer to TF-166, "
Inspection and
Adjustment".
Control Valve
• Check resistance between the terminals of the clutch pressure
solenoid valve, 2-4WD shift solenoid valve, clutch pressure switch,
line pressure switch and the transfer fluid temperature sensor.
Refer to TF-76, "
Clutch Pressure Solenoid" (clutch pressure sole-
noid valve), TF-80, "
2-4WD Solenoid" (2-4WD solenoid valve), TF-
76, "Clutch Pressure Solenoid" (clutch pressure switch), TF-94,
"Line Pressure Switch" (line pressure switch) and TF-90, "Transfer
Fluid Temperature" (transfer fluid temperature sensor).
• Check the sliding faces of the control valves and plugs for abnor-
mality. If any is found, replace the control valve assembly with a
new one. Refer to TF-166, "
Inspection and Adjustment".
CAUTION:
Replace control valve body together with clutch return spring
as a set.Specification : 0.015 - 0.035 mm (0.0006 - 0.0014 in)
