Diagnosis ProcedureINFOID:0000000003772128
1.CHECK 4WD SHIF T SWITCH SYSTEM
Perform self-diagnosis. Refer to DLN-18, "CONSULT-III Function (ALL MODE AWD/4WD)"
.
Is the 4WD MOD SW [P1814] (with CO NSULT-III) or Flickering pattern: 16 (without CONSULT-III) detected?
YES >> Perform trouble diagnosis for 4WD shift switch. Refer to DLN-31, "Diagnosis Procedure".
NO >> GO TO 2.
2.CHECK 2-4WD SHIFT SOLENOID SIGNAL
With CONSULT-III
1. Start engine.
2. Select DATA MONITOR mode for ALL MODE AWD/4WD with CONSULT-III.
3. Read out the value of 2-4WD SOL and 2-4WD SOL MON.
DTC CONSULT-III Diagnostic item is detected when... Reference

P1823 2-4 SOLENOID

Without CONSULT-III
1. Start engine.
2. Check voltage between transfer control unit harness connector
terminal and ground.
Are the inspection results normal?
YES >> GO TO 7.
NO >> GO TO 3.
3.CHECK 4WD SHIFT SWITCH SIGNAL
1. Turn ignition switch ON. (Do not start engine.)
2. Check voltage between transfer control unit harness connector terminals and ground.
Are the inspection results normal?
YES >> GO TO 4.
NO >> Check 4WD shift switch. Refer to DLN-33, "Component Inspection"
.
4.CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN 4WD SHIFT SWITCH AND TRANSFER TERMINAL CORD ASSEMBLY
1. Turn ignition switch OFF. (Stay for at least 5 seconds.)
2. Disconnect 4WD shift switch harness connector and transfer terminal cord assembly harness connector.

3. Check continuity between 4WD shift switch harness connector M141 terminal 4 and transfer terminal cord assembly harness
connector F56 terminal 5.
Also check harness for short to ground and short to power.
Are the inspection results normal?
YES >> GO TO 5.
NO >> Repair or replace damaged parts.
5.CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN TRANSF ER CONTROL UNIT AND TRANSFER TERMINAL CORD AS-
SEMBLY
1. Turn ignition switch OFF. (Stay for at least 5 seconds.)
2. Disconnect transfer control unit har ness connector and transfer terminal cord assembly harness connec-
tor.
3. Check continuity between transfer control unit harness connec-
tor E142 terminal 1 and transfer terminal cord assembly harness
connector F56 terminal 4.
Also check harness for short to ground and short to power.
Are the inspection results normal?
YES >> GO TO 6.
NO >> Repair or replace damaged parts.
6.CHECK 2-4WD SOLENOID
1. Turn ignition switch OFF. (Stay for at least 5 seconds.)
2. Disconnect transfer terminal cord assembly harness connector.
3. Check resistance between transfer terminal cord assembly ter- minals 4 and 5.
Are the inspection results normal?
YES >> GO TO 7.
NO >> Replace 2-4WD solenoid. Refer to DLN-16, "Compo-
nent Parts Location".
7.CHECK TRANSFER CONTROL UNIT
Check transfer control unit input/output signal. Refer to DLN-81, "Reference Value"
.
Are the inspection results normal?
YES >> GO TO 8.
NO >> Check transfer control unit pin terminals for damage or loose connection with harness connector.
If any items are damaged, repair or replace damaged parts.
8.CHECK DTC
Perform the self-diagnosis, after driving a vehicle for a while.
Are the inspection results normal?
YES >> Inspection End.
NO >> Replace transfer control unit. Refer to DLN-130, "Removal and Installation"
