NG >> Check AWD control unit pin terminals for damage or loose connection with harness connector. If
any items are damaged, repair or replace damaged parts.
5. SYMPTOM CHECK
Check again.
OK or NG
OK >>INSPECTION END
NG >> Replace electric controlled coupling for mechanical malfunction (mechanical engagement of
clutch is not possible.). Refer to TF-45, "
Disassembly and Assembly" .
While Driving, AWD Warning Lamp Flashes Rapidly (When Flashing in Approx.
1 Minute and Then Turning OFF)
NDS000DY
NOTE:
Rapid flashing: 2 times/second
This symptom protects drivetrain parts when a heavy load is applied to the electric controlled coupling and
multiple disc clutch temperature increases. Also, optional distribution of torque sometimes becomes rigid
before lamp flashes rapidly. Both cases are not malfunction.
When this symptom occurs, stop vehicle and allow it to idle for some times. Flashing will stop and system will
be restored.
While Driving, AWD Warning Lamp Flashes Slowly (When Continuing to Flash
until Turning Ignition Switch OFF)
NDS000DZ
NOTE:
Slow flashing: 1 time/2 seconds
DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE
1. CHECK TIRE
Check the following.
Tire pressure
Wear condition
Longitudinal tire size (There is no difference between longitudinal tires.)
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 2.
NG >> Drive at vehicle speed of 20 km/h (12 MPH) or more for 5 seconds or more after repairing or
replacing damaged parts. (Initialize improper size tire information.)
