REAR AXLE – LSD Case Assembly 27-48
BSCREW TIGHTENING
(1) Align the alignment mark on differential case A with that
on differential case B.
(2) Tighten the screws connecting differential case A and
B a uniform amount little by little in the diagonal order.
NOTE
If tightening the screws does not bring the two cases
properly together, spring plates are not probably
assembled properly. Reassemble from the start.
CLSD DIFFERENTIAL TORQUE CHECK
(1) Using the special tool, check for differential torque.
Standard value:
When new clutch plate is
installed Nm {kgf
m}When existing clutch plate is
reused Nm {kgf
m}
5 – 19 {0.5 – 1.9}2 – 19 {0.2 – 1.9}
NOTE
Before measuring the differential torque, first turn the
gears so they snug each other, then take measurements
during rotation.
(2) If the measurement falls outside the specified range,
disassemble the differential case assembly and repair
or replace defective parts.
INSPECTION
1. DIFFERENTIAL CASE INTERNAL PARTS
CONTACT/SLIDING SURFACE CHECK
(1) Clean the disassembled parts with cleaning oil and dry
them with compressed air.
(2) Check each plate, disc, and pressure ring for the following:
A. Friction and sliding surfaces of friction discs, friction
plates, and spring plates.
Replace a defective part with heat discoloration and
excessive wear with a new one, as it degrades locking
performance.
NOTE
If the inner periphery of the friction face shows traces
of harsh contact, it is because of the spring tension
of each plate, disc and other part. Do not confuse
this with abnormal wear.
B. Inner periphery and outer periphery protrusions of
friction discs, friction plates, and spring plates.
Replace a cracked or damaged part with a new one.
C. Friction and sliding surfaces between pressure rings
and friction discs.

REAR AXLE – LSD Case Assembly 27-49
Grind a dented or scratched part with oil stone and
then lap and correct with a compound on a surface
plate.
NOTE
If the inner periphery of the friction face shows traces
of harsh contact, it is because of the spring tension
of each plate, disc and other part. Do not confuse
this with abnormal wear.
(3) Check the following parts for contact and sliding surfaces
(D to M) and correct burrs and dents with oil stone.
D: Sliding surfaces of side gear and case
E: Contacting surfaces of differential case and spring
plate
F: Contacting surfaces of pressure ring and differential
case inner face
G: Sliding surfaces of pressure ring hole and side gear
H: Protrusions on outer periphery of pressure ring
I: Pressure ring inner surface and differential pinion
gear spherical surface
J: Pressure ring V-groove and pinion shaft V
K: Sliding surfaces of pinion shaft and differential pinion
gear hole
L: Side gear grooves on outer periphery
M: Slits in inner periphery of differential
2. FRICTION PLATE AND FRICTION DISC
DISTORTION CHECK
Apply a dial indicator to the friction plate or disc on a surface
plate and, turning the friction plate or disc, measure the
distortion (flatness).
Limit: 0.08 mm (total runout)
3. FRICTION PLATE, FRICTION DISC, AND SPRING
PLATE WEAR CHECK
(1) For the purpose of determining wear, measure thickness
(A, B) of the friction surface and protrusion at several
places and find the difference between the two.
Limit: 0.1 mm
(2) If the wear exceeds the limit, replace the part with a
new one.

Code No. 41, 42, 43, 44: Solenoid valve systemProbable cause
ABS-ECU monitors the solenoid valve energization circuit at all times. This code is
output when no current flows through the solenoid even when ABS-ECU energizes
it or when current continues flowing through the solenoid even when ABS-ECU
deenergizes it, which is considered to be attributable to an open- or short-circuited
solenoid coil or open- or short-circuited harness.

CHASSIS ELECTRICAL – Radio and Tape Player54-45
RADIO AND TAPE PLAYER
TROUBLESHOOTING
There is noise when the engine is running.
Kind of Noise (Parenthe-
sized is how noise
sounds.)SymptomCauseRemedy
AM, FM: Ignition noise
(Popping, snapping,
crackling, buzzing)
Popping sound becomes
faster with the increase
of engine speed.

The noise is lost with
ignition switch turned to
ACC.
Mainly due to the
spark plugs.

Due to noise circula-
tion from elsewhere

Noise from the engineCheck the noise capacitor
and earth cable and
replace if necessary. (See
Fig. 1 and Fig. 2.)
AM, FM: Defogger noise
(1) (Murmuring)Occurs when the defogger
switch is turned to ON and
OFF.Noise produced by spark-
ing when the defogger
switch is turned to ON/
OFF enters the glass
antenna.Check the noise capacitor
and replace if necessary.
(See Fig. 1.)
AM, FM: Defogger noise
(2) (Snapping noise)Occurs when the defogger
switch is turned to ON.Noise produced by current
flowing in the defogger
enters the glass antenna.Check the choke coil and
replace if necessary.
(See Fig. 3.)
AM, FM: Defogger noise
(3) (Scratching, gaggling)Occurs when the defogger
switch is turned to ON with
print heater wire broken.Noise produced by spark-
ing where print heater is
broken enters the glass
antenna.Repair the print heater.
AM, FM: Wiper motor
noise (Humming, wheez-
ing)Sound becomes faster with
the increase of wiper speed
and is lost when the wiper is
stopped.Caused by sparking in
wiper motor brush.Replace the wiper motor.
FM: Mirror motor noise
(Humming, wheezing)Occurs when electric mirror
operates.Caused by sparking in
mirror motor brush.Replace the electric
motor.
Other electrical compo-
nents–Noise is emitted by some
electrical components in
long use.Repair or replace electri-
cal components.
Static electricity (Crack-
ling, crinkling)
Noise is stopped when
the vehicle comes to a
complete stop.

Noise becomes louder
when the clutch is
released.Occurs when parts or
wiring move for some
reason and contact metal
parts of the body.Put parts or wiring into
position.
Various noises are produced
by body parts.Due to electrical detach-
ment of the hood, exhaust
pipe and muffler, suspen-
sion, etc. from the body.Tighten mounting bolts
securely. In many cases,
remedy of one part does
not eliminate the problem
due to incomplete earthing
elsewhere.
Caution
(1) Never let the noise filter contact a high tension cable. The noise filter could break down.
(2) Check that there is no external noise. This check is necessary to prevent misidentification of noise
sources.
(3) Noise prevention should be performed by eliminating noise sources in the descending order of loudness.
