Symptom TableINFOID:0000000005148856
If 4WD warning lamp turns ON, perform self-diagnosis. Refer to DLN-18, "CONSULT-III Function (ALL MODE AWD/4WD)".
NOTE:
• Light tight-corner braking symptom may occur depending on driving conditions in AUTO mode. This is not a
malfunction.
• Heavy tight-corner braking symptom occurs when vehicle is driven in the following conditions: 4WD shift
switch is 4H or 4LO, steering wheel is turned fully to either side.

DescriptionINFOID:0000000005148857
4WD shift indicator lamp and 4LO indicator lamp do not turn ON for approx. 1 second when turning ignition
switch to ON.
Diagnosis ProcedureINFOID:0000000005148858
Regarding Wiring Diagram information, refer to DLN-89, "Wiring Diagram - ALL-MODE 4WD SYSTEM -".
1.CHECK TRANSFER CONTROL UNIT POWER SUPPLY AND GROUND CIRCUITS
Refer to DLN-22, "
Diagnosis Procedure".
Are the inspection results normal?
YES >> GO TO 2.
NO >> Repair as necessary.
2.CHECK COMBINATION METER POWER SUPPLY AND GROUND CIRCUITS
Refer to MWI-28, "
COMBINATION METER : Diagnosis Procedure".
Are the inspection results normal?
YES >> GO TO 3.
NO >> Perform repairs as necessary.
3.CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN TR ANSFER CONTROL UNIT AND COMBINATION METER
1. Turn ignition switch OFF. (Stay for at least 5 seconds.)
2. Disconnect transfer control unit harness connector.
3. Check continuity between the following terminals.
- Transfer control unit harness connector E142 (B) terminal 2 and combination meter harness connector M24 (A) terminal 38.
- Transfer control unit harness connector E142 (B) terminal 11 and combination meter harness connector M24 (A) terminal 29.
- Transfer control unit harness connector E142 (B) terminal 12 and combination meter harness connector M24 (A) terminal 39.
- Transfer control unit harness connector E142 (B) terminal 21
and combination meter harness connector M24 (A) terminal 28.
Also check harness for short to ground and short to power.
Are the inspection results normal?
YES >> GO TO 4.
NO >> Repair or replace damaged parts.
4.CHECK INDICATOR LAMP CIRCUIT
1. Connect combination meter harness connector.
2. Turn ignition switch ON. Continuity should exist.
