SUSPENSION ARM
• Check the ball joint. Replace the suspension arm assembly if any
of the following conditions exist:
- Ball stud is worn.
- Joint is hard to swing.
- Play in axial direction is excessive.
INSTALLATION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal.
• Tighten the nuts and bolts to specification. Refer to RSU-21, "
Component" .
• Perform the final tightening of the nuts and bolts for the links (rubber bushing) under unladen condition
(unladen condition means that the fuel tank, engine coolant and lubricants are at the full specification, and
the spare tire, jack, hand tools, and mats are in their designated positions) with the tires on level ground.
• Check the wheel alignment. Refer to RSU-23, "
Wheel AlignmentInspection" . Swinging force “A” : Refer to RSU-43, "
Ball Joint" .
Turning force “B” : Refer to RSU-43, "
Ball Joint" .

ALL-MODE 4WD SYSTEM
LINE PRESSURE SWITCH
• With the transfer system design, control of the oil pressure provides the transmission of drive torque to the
front wheels. The main pressure to control the oil pressure is referred to as the line pressure.
• The line pressure switch determines whether or not adequate line pressure has built up under different oper-
ating conditions.
• The line pressure switch turns ON when line pressure is produced.
• The line pressure switch senses line pressure abnormalities and turns the 4WD warning lamp ON.
CLUTCH PRESSURE SWITCH
• The clutch pressure switch determines whether or not adequate clutch pressure has built up under different
operating conditions.
• The clutch pressure switch turns ON when clutch pressure is produced.
• The clutch pressure switch senses clutch pressure abnormalities and turns the 4WD warning lamp ON.
TRANSFER FLUID TEMPERATURE SENSOR
The transfer temperature sensor detects the transfer fluid temperature and sends a signal to the transfer con-
trol unit.
TRANSFER CONTROL UNIT
• Transfer control unit controls transfer control device by input signals of each sensor and each switch.
• Self-diagnosis can be done.
TRANSFER CONTROL DEVICE
The transfer control device changes the state of transfer assembly between 2WD, AUTO, 4H⇔4LO with the
2WD, AUTO, 4H and 4LO signals of 4WD shift switch.
NOTE:
• To shift between 4H⇔4LO, stop the vehicle, depress the brake pedal and shift the transmission selector to
the "N" position. Depress and turn the 4WD shift switch. The shift switch will not shift to the desired mode if
the transmission is not in "N" or the vehicle is moving. The 4LO indicator lamp will be lit when the 4LO is
engaged.
• Actuator motor and actuator position switch are integrated.
4WD SHIFT SWITCH AND INDICATOR LAMP
4WD Shift Switch
The 4WD shift switch allows selection from 2WD, AUTO, 4H or 4LO.
4WD Shift Indicator Lamp
• Displays driving conditions selected by 4WD shift switch with 2WD, AUTO and 4H indicators while engine is
running. (When 4WD warning lamp is turned on, all 4WD shift indicator lamps are turned off.)
• Turns ON for approximately 1 second when ignition switch is turned ON, for purpose of lamp check.
4LO Indicator Lamp
• Displays 4LO condition while engine is running. 4LO indicator lamp flashes if transfer gear does not shift
completely under 2WD, AUTO, 4H⇔4LO. (When 4WD warning lamp is turned on, 4LO indicator lamp is
turned off.)
• Turns ON for approximately 1 second when ignition switch is turned ON, for purpose of lamp check.
4WD WARNING LAMP
Turns ON or FLASH when there is a malfunction in 4WD system.
Also turns ON when ignition switch is turned ON, for purpose of lamp check. Turns OFF for approximately 1
second after the engine starts if system is normal.
4WD Warning Lamp Indication
Condition Content 4WD warning lamp
During self-diagnosis Indicates the malfunction position by number of flickers. Flickers at malfunction mode.
Lamp check*Checks the lamp by turning ON during engine starting. After
engine starts, it turns OFF if there are no malfunctions.ON
Malfunction in 4WD system*Turns ON to indicate malfunction. When ignition switch is
turned to “OFF” or the malfunction is corrected, it turns OFF.ON
When vehicle is driven with different
diameters of front and rear tiresFlickers once every 2 seconds.
Turns OFF when ignition switch is “OFF”.Flickers once every 2 sec-
onds.

two balance weight sheets in line with each other as shown.
CAUTION:
Do not install one balance weight sheet on top of another.
3. Start wheel balancer again.
4. Install drive-in balance weight on inner side of road wheel in the
wheel balancer indication position (angle).
CAUTION:
Do not install more than two balance weights.
5. Start wheel balancer. Make sure that inner and outer residual
imbalance values are 5 g (0.18 oz) each or below.
• If either residual imbalance value exceeds 5 g (0.18 oz),
repeat installation procedures.

RotationINFOID:0000000003532691
NOTE:
Follow the maintenance schedule for tire rotation service intervals. Refer to MA-6
.
1. Rotate the tires on each side from front to back as shown. Do
not include the spare tire when rotating the tires.
CAUTION:
When installing wheels, tighten them diagonally by dividing
the work two to three times in order to prevent the wheels
from developing any distortion.
2. Adjust the tire pressure to specification. Refer to WT-28, "
Tire" .
3. After the tire rotation, retighten the wheel nuts after the vehicle
has been driven for 1,000 km (600 miles), and also after every
wheel and tire have been installed such as after repairing a flat tire.
Maximum allowable imbalanceDynamic (At rim flange) 5 g (0.18 oz) (one side)

TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS
3. Select “WORK SUPPORT” on “SELECT DIAG MODE" screen,
and select "ID REGIST".
4. Adjust the tire pressure to the values shown in the table below
and drive the vehicle at 15 km/h (9.4 MPH) or more for a few
minutes.
5. After completing all ID registrations, press “END” to complete the procedure.
6. Inflate all tires to proper pressure. Refer to WT-28, "
Tire".
Transmitter Wake Up OperationINFOID:0000000003532698
NOTE:
This procedure must be done after replacement of a low tire pressure warning transmitter or BCM.
New replacement transmitters are provided "asleep" and must first be "woken up" using Transmitter
Activation Tool J-45295 before ID registration can be performed.
1. Turn ignition switch ON. Push the transmitter activation tool
against the tire near the front left transmitter. Press the button for
5 seconds. The hazard warning lamps flash per the diagram
below.
2. Repeat this procedure for each tire in the following order: FL, FR, RR, RL.
