CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

NOTICE:

Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following inspection procedure.

HINT:

Check the condition of each related circuit connector before troubleshooting (See page ).

PROCEDURE

1.	CHECK WIRE HARNESS (AWD CONTROL ECU - BATTERY)

(a) Disconnect the ECU connector.

(b) Measure the voltage of the wire harness side connector.

Standard Voltage:

Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
D38-9 (BSLC) - Body Ground	Always	11 to 14 V

REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR

2.	INSPECT ELECTRO MAGNETIC CONTROL COUPLING (ELECTROMAGNETIC SOLENOID)

(a) Remove the coupling connector.

(b) Measure the resistance of the solenoid.

Standard Resistance:

Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
1 (BSF) - 2 (SLC)	Always	2.2 to 2.6 Ω
1 (BSF) - Body ground	Always	10 kΩ or higher
2 (SLC) - Body ground	Always	10 kΩ or higher

3.	CHECK WIRE HARNESS (ELECTROMAGNETIC CONTROL COUPLING - AWD CONTROL ECU)

(a) Disconnect the ECU connector.

(b) Measure the resistance of the wire harness side connector.

Standard Resistance:

Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
D38-13 (SLC+) - O1-1 (BSF)	Always	Below 1 Ω
D38-32 (SLC-) - O1-2 (SLC)	Always	Below 1 Ω
D38-13 (SLC+) - Body ground	Always	10 kΩ or higher
D38-32 (SLC-) - Body ground	Always	10 kΩ or higher
