Trouble Diagnosis without CONSULT-IINBTF0011DESCRIPTIONNBTF0011S01If the engine starts when there is something wrong with the all-
mode 4WD system, the 4WD warning lamp turns ON or flickers in
the combination meter. When the system functions properly, the
warning lamp turns ON when the ignition switch is turned to ªONº,
and it turns OFF after engine starts.
To locate the cause of a problem, start the self-diagnosis function.
The 4WD warning lamp in the combination meter will indicate the
problem area by flickering according to the self-diagnostic results.
As for the details of the 4WD warning lamp flickering patterns, refer
to TF-29.GI
