4. To observe the waveform with an oscilloscope:
Front Wheels: Shift into "D" range and drive the wheels. Rear Wheels: Turn the wheels manually at a constant speed
POINTS IN WAVEFORM MEASUREMENT Fig. 150: Identifying Points In Waveform Measurement

Courtesy of MITSUBISHI MOTOR SALES OF AMERICA. NOTE: The output waveform is low when the wheel speed is low.
Similarly, it will be higher as the wheel speed increases.
Waveform may also be observed by driving the vehicle.
NOTE: The ABS sensor cable moves in relation to motion of the
front or rear suspension. Therefore, it is likely that it has an
open circuit only when driving on rough roads but it
functions normally when driving on smooth roads. It is
recommended to observe sensor output voltage waveform

the direction of the spline chamfered side. See Fig. 13
.
C. Using Bar (Snap-In Type) (MB990938) and Installer Adapter (MB990932),
press-fit the center bearing into the center bearing bracket. See Fig. 18
.
D. Apply the specified great (from the repair kit) to the rear surface of all dust
seals. Using Rear Suspension Bushing Base (MB990890), Bar (Snap-In type)
(MB990838), and Installer Adapter (MB990934), press the dust seals into the
center bearing bracket until they are flush with each other. See Fig. 19 . Apply
repair kit grease to the lip of each dust seal.
E. Using Inner Shaft Installer Base (MB991172), hold the center bearing inner
race, and then press-in the inner shaft. See Fig. 20
. Apply repair kit grease to
the inner shaft spline, then press-fit it into the PTJ case.
F. After applying the specified grease to the PTJ case, insert the axle shaft and
apply grease again.
G. Set the PTJ boot bands at the specified distance to adjust the amount of air
inside the PTJ joint, and then tighten the small and large PTJ boot bands. See
Fi
g. 12
. CAUTION: When applying grease, make sure that it does not
adhere to anything outside the lip.
NOTE: When press-fitting the inner shaft into the PTJ case,
apply a thin coat of repair kit grease to the dust seal
outer lip part and the outside edge of the PTJ axial part.
CAUTION: The axle shaft joint uses special grease. DO NOT
mix old, new, or different types of grease.
NOTE: The grease in the repair kit should be divided in half for
use, respectively, at the joint and inside the boot.

Rear Axle < AWD > - Endeavor
GENERAL DESCRIPTION The rear axle has the following features.
The wheel bearing incorporates a unit ball bearing (double-row angular contact
ball bearing) for reduced friction. The rear wheel hub assembly combines the hub, wheel bearing, housing, and
oil seal in a single unit for fewer parts, better durability, improved assembly
precision, and better structural organization. The drive shaft has BJ-DOJ constant velocity joints. ABS rotor for wheel speed detection is press-fitted onto the drive shaft in
vehicles with ABS.

REAR AXLE DIAGNOSIS INTRODUCTION Noise from the drive shaft or differential may be caused by defects in the
components. TROUBLESHOOTING STRATEGY Use these steps to plan your diagnostic strategy. If you follow them carefully, you
will be sure that you have exhausted most of the possible ways to find a rear axle
fault.
1. Gather information from the customer.

SYMPTOM PROCEDURES INSPECTION PROCEDURE 1: NOISE DURING WHEEL ROTATION {{DRIVE SHAFT}} DIAGNOSIS
STEP 1. Check the wheel bearing end play.
1. Remove the caliper assembly, and suspend the caliper assembly with a
wire and remove the brake disc.
2. Fit the dial gauge as shown in the diagram and move the hub in the axial
direction to measure the play.
Limit: 0.05 mm (0.002 inch)
