P1814 WAIT DETECTION SWITCH
P1814 WAIT DETECTION SWITCH
DescriptionINFOID:0000000005148796
The wait detection switch detects if the transfer case
is in 4WD. DTC P1814 will set if an improper signal from
the wait detection switch is input due to open or short circuit.

DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE
1.DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE
1. Turn ignition switch ON.
2. Perform self-diagnosis.
Is DTC P1814 detected?
YES >> Perform diagnosis procedure. Refer to DLN-36, "Diagnosis Procedure".
NO >> Inspection End.
Diagnosis ProcedureINFOID:0000000005148798
Regarding Wiring Diagram information, refer to DLN-89, "Wiring Diagram - ALL-MODE 4WD SYSTEM -".
1.CHECK WAIT DETECTION SWITCH 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 WAIT DETCT SW.
Without CONSULT-III
1. Start engine.

P1817 ACTUATOR MOTOR
DescriptionINFOID:0000000005148803
The actuator motor receives signals from the transfer c
ontrol unit and controls shift rods which shift the trans-
fer case. DTC P1817 will set w hen any of the following occur:
• Motor does not operate properly due to open or short circuit in actuator motor.
• Malfunction is detected in the actuator motor. (W hen 4WD shift switch is operated and actuator motor does
not operate)
• Malfunction is detected in transfer shift high relay or transfer shift low relay.
