etc? Refer to PS-8, "
POWER STEERING FLUID" .
Is the fluid level proper? Refer to PS-8, "POWER STEERING FLUID" .
Is the wheel alignment is adjusted properly? Refer to FSU-19, "SERVICE DATA AND SPECIFICATIONS
(SDS)" (2WD), FSU-36, "SERVICE DATA AND SPECIFICATIONS (SDS)" (AWD).
Are there any damage or modification to suspension or body resulting in increased weight or altered
ground clearance?
Check each link installation condition of suspension and axle.
Is the battery voltage proper?
Check each connector connection condition.
Check the following items while driving the vehicle
Conditions when the error occurred (5W 1H).
Is the engine is normal?
Basic InspectionNGS000EO
BASIC INSPECTION 1: POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT TERMINAL LOOSENESS AND BATTERY
Check battery terminals for looseness on both positive and negative ones and ground connection. Also make
sure that battery voltage does not drop.
BASIC INSPECTION 2: RAS WARNING LAMP INSPECTION
1. Make sure RAS warning lamp turns on when ignition switch is turned ON.
If it does not turn on, refer to STC-33, "Trouble Diagnosis Chart" .
2. Make sure that RAS warning lamp turns off when the engine is started after ignition switch is turned ON. If
it does not turn off, perform self-diagnosis. Refer to STC-28, "
SELF-DIAG RESULT MODE" .
3. Always erase DTC memory after completing self-diagnosis. Refer to STC-29, "
How to Erase Self-Diag-
nostic Results" .
BASIC INSPECTION 3: RAS CONTROL UNIT POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT AND GROUND CIR-
CUIT INSPECTION
1. CHECK RAS CONTROL UNIT CONNECTOR
Turn ignition switch OFF, disconnect RAS control unit harness connector, and check terminal for deformation,
disconnection, looseness, etc.
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 2.
NG >> Poor connection of connector terminal. Repair or replace the terminal.
2. CHECK RAS CONTROL UNIT GROUND CIRCUIT
1. Disconnect RAS control unit harness connector B127, and then
check continuity between RAS control unit harness connector
B127 and ground.
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 3.
NG >> Ground circuit open or shorted. Repair or replace any
inoperative parts. Terminal 34 – Ground : Continuity

ELECTRIC CONTROLLED COUPLING
Operation Principle
1. AWD control unit supplies command current to electric controlled coupling (AWD solenoid).
2. Control clutch is engaged by electromagnet and torque is detected in control clutch.
3. The cam operates in response to control clutch torque and applies pressure to main clutch.
4. Main clutch transmits torque to front wheels according to pressing power.
Transmission torque to front wheels is determined according
to command current.
AWD CONTROL UNIT
Controls distribution of drive power between rear-wheel drive
(0:100) and AWD (50:50) conditions according to signals from
sensors.
Self-diagnosis can be done with CONSULT-II.

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.)

LOW TIRE PRESSURE WARNING SYSTEM
Revision: 2006 January2006 M35/M45
RECEIVER
The receiver receives the air pressure signal transmitted by the transmitter in each wheel.
LOW TIRE PRESSURE WARNING CONTROL UNIT
The low tire pressure warning control unit (1) reads the air pressure
signal received by the receiver, and controls the low tire pressure
warning lamp and the buzzer operations. It also has a judgement
function to detect a system malfunction.
LOW TIRE PRESSURE WARNING LAMP
The combination meter receives tire pressure status from the low tire
pressure warning control unit using CAN communication. When a
low tire pressure condition is sensed by the low tire pressure control
unit, the combination meter low tire pressure warning lamp and
buzzer are activated.
Low Tire Pressure Warning Lamp Indication
*: Standard air pressure is for 230 kpa (2.3 kg/cm2 , 33 psi) vehicle. 1. Tire pressure receiver front 2. Tire pressure receiver rear A. Front wheel house
B. Rear wheel house
Refer to GI-11, "
Components" , for the symbols in the figure.
