Diagnostic Procedure

  1. CHECK ATP SWITCH SIGNAL 

    With CONSULT-II 

    1. Start engine.
    2. Select "DATA MONITOR" mode for "ALL MODE AWD/4WD" with CONSULT-II.
    3. Read out the value of "ATP SWITCH".
      DATA MONITOR REFERENCE

      Condition Display value
      • Vehicle stopped
      • Engine running
      • A/T selector lever "N"
      • Brake pedal depressed
      4WD shift switch : 4H to 4LO or 4LO to 4H (While actuator motor is operating.) ON
      Except the above OFF

    Without CONSULT-II 

    1. Start engine.
    2. Check voltage between transfer control unit harness connector terminal and ground.
      TERMINALS VOLTAGE CHART

      Connector Terminal Condition Voltage (Approx.)
      E143 40 - Ground
      • Vehicle stopped
      • Engine running
      • A/T selector lever "N"
      • Brake pedal depressed
      4WD shift switch: 4H to 4LO or 4LO to 4H (While actuator motor is operating.) 0V
      Except the above Battery voltage

    OK or NG 

    OK: GO TO  5.

    NG: GO TO 2.

  2. CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN TRANSFER CONTROL UNIT AND ATP SWITCH 
    1. Turn ignition switch "OFF". (Stay for at least 5 seconds.)
    2. Disconnect transfer control unit harness connector and the ATP switch harness connector.
    3. Check continuity between transfer control unit harness connector E143 terminal 40 and ATP switch harness connector F55 terminal 8.

      Continuity should exist. 

      Also check harness for short to ground and short to power.

    OK or NG 

    OK: GO TO 3.

    NG: Repair or replace damaged parts.

  3. CHECK GROUND CIRCUIT 
    1. Turn ignition switch "OFF". (Stay for at least 5 seconds.)
    2. Disconnect ATP switch harness connector.
    3. Check continuity between ATP switch harness connector F55 terminal 9 and ground.

      Continuity should exist. 

      Also check harness for short to ground and short to power.

    OK or NG 

    OK: GO TO 4.

    NG: Repair open circuit or short to ground or short to power in harness or connectors.

  4. CHECK ATP SWITCH 
    1. Turn ignition switch "OFF". (Stay for at least 5 seconds.)
    2. Disconnect ATP switch harness connector.
    3. Remove ATP switch. Refer to "LOCATION OF ELECTRICAL PARTS ".
    4. Push and release ATP switch and check continuity between ATP switch terminals 8 and 9.

      Terminal Condition Continuity
      8 - 9 Push ATP switch Yes
      Release ATP switch No

    OK or NG 

    OK: GO TO 5.

    NG: Replace ATP switch. Refer to "LOCATION OF ELECTRICAL PARTS ".

  5. CHECK TRANSFER CONTROL UNIT 

    Check transfer control unit input/output signal. Refer to "TRANSFER CONTROL UNIT INPUT/OUTPUT SIGNAL REFERENCE VALUES ".

    OK or NG 

    OK: GO TO 6.

    NG: Check transfer control unit pin terminals for damage or loose connection with harness connector.

    If any items are damaged, repair or replace damaged parts.

  6. CHECK ATP WARNING LAMP 
    1. Turn ignition switch "ON". (Do not start engine.)
    2. Move A/T selector lever to "P" position.
    3. Set 4WD shift switch from "4H" to "4LO" or "4LO" to "4H".

    Does ATP warning lamp turn ON while switching? 

    Yes: GO TO "ATP WARNING LAMP TURNS ON ".

    No: Inspection End.
