DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE
1. CHECK 4WD SHIFT SWITCH SIGNAL
With CONSULT-II
1. Turn ignition switch “ON”. (Do not start engine.)
2. Select “DATA MONITOR ” mode for “ALL MODE AWD/4WD ” with CONSULT-II.
3. Read out ON/OFF switching action of the “2WD SWITCH”,
“AUTO SWITCH”, “LOCK SWITCH”, “4L SWITCH ” with operat-
ing 4WD shift switch.
Without CONSULT-II
1. Turn ignition switch “ON”. (Do not start engine.)
2. Check voltage between transfer control unit harness connector terminals and ground.
