4. Using a small spanner, remove the air tube A (1) and B (2) from
air compressor.
CAUTION:
Be careful since air flows swiftly from air tube.
5. Remove the exhaust tube (1) from exhaust tube connector (2).
6. Remove the exhaust tube connector only when it is damaged.
7. Remove the exhaust tube from air compressor.
8. Remove the air compressor from bracket.
9. Rmove the bracket from vehicle.
10. Remove the air tube A and B from rear shock absorbers RH and LH, according to the procedure in step 4.
11. Remove the air tube A and B from vehicle.
12. Perform inspection after removal. Rfer to SCS-97, "
Inspection".
INSTALLATION
Note the following, and install in the reverse order of the removal.
 When installing air tube (1) to air compressor or shock absorber,
insert as shown in the figure.
 Dry each component thoroughly before installing, to prevent mois-
ture from entering air compressor.

Then, when the power supply position is turned ON, BCM performs ID verification between BCM and ECM. If
the ID verification result is OK, ECM can start engine.
ECMINFOID:0000000006226155
ECM controls the engine.
When power supply position is turned ON, BCM starts communication with ECM and performs the ID verifica-
tion between BCM and ECM.
If the verification result is OK, the engine can start. If the verification result is NG, the engine can not start.
IPDM E/RINFOID:0000000006226156
IPDM E/R has steering lock relay, starter relay and starte r control relay inside. Steering lock relay is used for
the steering lock/unlock function. Starter relay and star ter control relay are used for the engine starting func-
tion. IPDM E/R controls these relays while communicating with BCM.
NATS Antenna Amp.INFOID:0000000006226157
The ID verification is performed between BCM and transponder in Intelligent Key via NATS antenna amp.
when Intelligent Key backside is contacted to push-button i gnition switch in case that Intelligent Key battery is
discharged. If the ID verification result is OK, the release of steering lock and the operation of starting engine
is available.
TCMINFOID:0000000006226158
TCM transmits the shift position signal (P/N position) to BCM and IPDM E/R. And further, TCM transmits the
shift position signal (P/N position) to BCM via CAN communication.
BCM confirms the A/T shift selector position with the following 5 signals.
 P position signal from A/T shift selector (detention switch)
 P/N position signal from TCM
 P position signal from IPDM E/R (CAN)
 P/N position signal from IPDM E/R (CAN)
 P/N position signal from TCM (CAN)
IPDM E/R confirms the A/T shift sele ctor position with the following 3 signals.
 P position signal from A/T shift selector (detention switch)
 P/N position signal from TCM
 P/N position signal from BCM (CAN)
Combination MeterINFOID:0000000006226159
Combination meter transmits the vehicle speed signal to BCM via CAN communication.
BCM also receives the vehicle speed signal from ABS ac tuator and electric unit (control unit) via CAN commu-
nication. BCM compares both signals to detect the vehicle speed.
Door SwitchINFOID:0000000006226160
Door switch detects door open/close condition and then transmits ON/OFF signal to BCM.
Hood SwitchINFOID:0000000006226161
Hood switch detects that hood is open, and then transmits the signal to IPDM E/R. IPDM E/R transmits hood
switch signal to BCM via CAN communication.
Inside Key AntennaINFOID:0000000006226162
Inside key antenna detects whether Intelligent Key is inside the vehicle, and transmits the signal to BCM.
Three inside key antennas are installed in t he instrument center, console and luggage room.
Intelligent KeyINFOID:0000000006226163
Each Intelligent key has an individual electronic ID , and transmits the ID signal by request from BCM.
Carrying the Intelligent Key whose ID is registered in BCM, the driver can performs door lock/unlock operation
and push-button ignition switch operation.

Input/Output Signal Chart
*: This signal is transmitted via communication line.
The TCM activates low brake solenoid valve and controls t he low brake oil pressure to the low pressure level
if the driver does not intend to start the vehicle while the vehicle is being stopped in the “D” position. Therefore,
the low brake is in the release (slip) status and the pow er transmission route of A/T is the same status as the
“N” position. This can decrease the engine load and im proves the fuel economy because the drive force of
engine is not transmitted to the output shaft of A/T.
Idle Neutral Contro l Start Condition
Idle neutral control starts when all of the following c onditions are satisfied. However, the control ends when
any one of the following conditions becomes insufficient during idle neutral control.
NOTE:
The idle neutral control is terminated or prohibited when the TCM and ECM detect that the vehicle is in any of
the conditions as per the following.
 Engine cooling water temperature and A/T fluid temperature are below or above a prescribed temperature.
 A/T malfunction occurs.
 DTC is detected.
 Fail-safe mode activates.
 Idle neutral control is performed continuously for a certain period of time.
Idle Neutral Contro l Resume Condition
Idle neutral control can be resumed when its start condition is fulfilled after any of the following operations is
performed (unless a malfunction occurs in the vehicle).
 After driving at more than a prescribed speed.
 When idle neutral control start conditions are fulfilled for a certain period of time.

Input/Output Signal Chart
*: This signal is transmitted via CAN communication line.
 When driving on an up/down slope ASC judges up/down slope according to engine torque data transmitted from the ECM and vehicle speed.
Fixing at 4GR, 5GR or 6GR on an up-slope prevents sh ift hunting and controls the vehicle to gain optimum
driving force. On a down-slope, automatic shift-down to 4GR, 5GR or 6GR controls to gain optimum engine
brake.
 When driving on a curve TCM receives the side G sensor signal from the ABS ac tuator and electric unit (control unit). It locks to 4GR,
5GR or 6GR position in moderate cornering or to 3G R position in sharp cornering based on this signal. This
prevents any upshift and kickdown during corner ing, maintaining smooth vehicle travel.
To w M o d e
 High driving torque is required for towing a heavy load. The tow mode enables torque-oriented driving by
changing the shift schedule to that of delaying A/T gear shift timing (compared to normal driving).
 TCM receives tow mode switch signal from combination meter via CAN communication. The tow mode turns ON when TCM receives the signal. TCM transmits a tow mode indicator lamp signal to the combination
meter via CAN communication to turn ON the tow mode indicator lamp mounted in the combination meter.
