6. INSPECTION PROCEDURE FOR TROUBLE SYMPTOMS
INSPECTION PROCEDURE 1
AYC warning lamp does not light up when the ignition key
is turned to “ON” (engine stationary).
Probable cause
The lamp power supply circuit is probably open-circuited, lamp bulb is out, or the
circuit between AYC warning lamp and AYC-ECU or AYC-ECU itself is defective.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE 2
AYC warning lamp remains lit up after the engine has
started.
Probable cause
The AYC warning lamp ON circuit is probably short-circuited.
Defective combination meter

Defective harness (short-circuit)

Defective AYC-ECU
NOTE
This symptom is limited only when AYC-ECU power supply is in normal condition and the diagnosis
code is correct.
OK
Replace combination meter.
NO

Does the AYC warning lamp goes out
when the B-96 AYC-ECU connector
is disconnected?YESReplace AYC-ECU.
INSPECTION PROCEDURE 3
AYC is inoperative.
Unable to start or accelerate on slippery road surfaces.
Probable cause
The hydraulic oil level is probably low, there is an oil leak, the hydraulic unit is defective,
or the torque transfer differential is defective.
Low hydraulic oil level
