TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS
Revision: November 20092006 QX56
Clutch Force Release Limit Adjustment
1. Current CLUTCH FORCE RELEASE LIMIT value “0.3 kgm”
appears under “CONDITION SETTING ” on CONSULT-II display.
2. Touch “1.2” on the display.
3. Display changes to “NOW ADJUSTING” in a short time.
4. When clutch force release limit value is set to “1.2 kgm”, current
value “0.3 kgm ” shown on display will be replaced by “1.2 kgm”
and “ADJUSTMENT COMPLETE ” will appear at the same time.
Clutch force release limit value setting is now complete.
Self-diagnostic ProcedureEDS002HL
SELF-DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE (WITH CONSULT-II)
Refer to TF-45, "SELF-DIAG RESULT MODE" .
SELF-DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE (WITHOUT CONSULT-II)
Description
If the engine starts when there is something wrong with the 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 “ON”, 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 pat-
terns, refer to TF-51, "
Diagnostic Procedure" .
1.2 kg-m : Tight corner braking symptom is allevi-
ated. However, vibration may occur when
accelerating on a low µ road (icy road, etc.).
0.3 kg-m : Initial set value.
0.2 kg-m : Do not set to this value because the tight corner braking symptom will get worse.

CAUTION:
If “CAN communication” is displayed with other DTCs, first perform the trouble diagnosis for CAN communication line.
If “ABS operation signal”, “VDC operation signal" or “TCS operation signal" is displayed, first perform the trouble diag-
nosis for ABS system.
If “Output shaft revolution signal” is displayed, first perform the trouble diagnosis for A/T system.
NOTE:
If "actuator position switch" or “actuator circuit ” is displayed, first erase self-diagnostic results. ("Actuator position switch" or “actua-
tor circuit ” may be displayed after installing transfer control unit or transfer assembly.)
If “clutch pressure switch ” or “line pressure switch” is displayed only while driving in reverse, check the continuity of “R ” position on
A/T PNP switch. When there is nothing wrong with the electrical system, check the hydraulic system.
ERASE SELF-DIAGNOSIS
In order to make it easier to find the cause of hard-to-duplicate malfunctions, malfunction information is
stored into the control unit as necessary during use by the user. This memory is not erased no matter how
many times the ignition switch is turned ON and OFF.
However, this information is erased by turning ignition switch “OFF” after performing self-diagnostics or by
erasing the memory using the CONSULT-II.
