Start the engine, and let it run until it warms up (the
radiator fan comes on at least twice).
With the engine at idle. shift to the E position.
Apply the parking brake firmly. and measure thetime it takes the propeller shaft to rotate 10 times.. lf the measured time is more than 10 seconds,
the 4WD system is normal.
. lf the time is less than 10 seconds, there is aproblem in 4WD system. Check the differential
fluid. lf the differential fluid is normal, replace
the torque control differential case kit.

Troubleshooting (Automatic Transmission/Manual Transmission)
Whon d6c6l6rating in a torward gear {2WD mode}
1. Block the front wheels, raise the left rear wheel. and
support it with a safety stand as shown.
Hold the tire and turn it counterclockwise continu-
ouslv for more than one rotation.
lf the rotation of the wheel does not gradually
feel heavy while rotating, the 2WD system when
decelerating in a forward gear is normal.
lf the rotation of the wheel gradually feels heavy,
there is a problem in the system. Check the dif-
ferential fluid, lf the fluid is normal, reDlace the

Tighten the locknut while holding the rack guide
screw.
Check for tight or loose steering through the com-
plete turning travel.
Perform following inspections:
. Steering operation (see page 17-12).
. Power assist with vehicle parked
Fluid Replacement
Check the reseryoir at regular intervals, and add the rec-
ommended fluid as necessary.
CAUTION: Always use Gsnuine Honda Power Steering
Fluid-V or S. Using any other type of power steering
tluid or automatic transmission fluid can cause increassd

1.Raise the reservoir. then disconnect the return hose
to drain the reservoir. Take care not to spill the fluid
on the body and parts. Wipe off any spilled fluid at
once.
2, Connect a hose of suitable diameter to the discon-
nected return hose, and put the hose end in a suit-
able container.
3. Stan the engine. let it run at idle, and turn the steer-
ing wheel from lock-to-lock several times. When
fluid stops running out of the hose, shut off the
engine. Discard the fluid.
4. Beinstallthe return hose on the reservoar.
5. Fill the reservoir to the upper level line,
6. Start the engine and run it at fast idle. then turn the
steering from lock-to-lock several times to bleed air
from the system.
7. Recheck the fluid level and add some if necessary.
Do not fill the reservoir beyond the upper level line.
