ACTUATOR TEST REFERENCE TABLE
The following items can be tested by driving the corresponding actuator forcibly using the MUT-II.
Item No.Check itemChecking requirementsNormal value
10Air bleedingSupply current to proportioning
valve in accordance with steering
angle to operate directional valve.No air is to be bled from the
bleeder plug on the torque transfer
differential.
11Oil level checkLet the directional valve operate to
left and right 20 times.To be checked by oil level in
reservoir tank.
12Electric pump operationLet the electric pump operate for 5
seconds.Operation sounds of the electric
pump are to be heard.
13Clutch operation (left)Let the directional valve operate to
supply the maximum pressure to the
left clutch.The operation conditions are to be
checked by the speed difference
between left and right rear wheels
with the wheels raised. For details,
refer to AYC Operation Check on
P.27-34.
14Clutch operation (right)Let the directional valve operate to
supply the maximum pressure to the
right clutch.The operation conditions are to be
checked by the speed difference
between left and right rear wheels
with the wheels raised. For details,
refer to AYC Operation Check on
P.27-34.
15Control OFFTurn off the electric pump relay to
deactivate AYC control.During the test run, some
differences are to be recognized in
running behaviors between when
the system is ON and when it is
OFF.
NOTE
(1) The actuator test is feasible only when the following requirements are all satisfied.

All of inputs from four wheel speed sensors show 20 km/h or lower.

No system failure is registered.

The steering angle is within ±30 deg. from the neutral position.
(2) The actuator test comes to an end when either of the following conditions is met since the forced
actuation is canceled.

Either of inputs from four wheel sensors shows higher than 20 km/h (with exception of Item
No.15 “Control OFF”).

Some trouble with the system is registered.

Forced activation time expires.

MUT-II is removed.

The clear key of MUT-II is operated.

ON-VEHICLE SERVICE

REAR AXLE TOTAL BACKLASH CHECK
If the drive system roars or the vehicle vibrates, use the
following procedure to measure total backlash in the rear
axle. Based on the measurement taken, determine whether
the differential carrier assembly needs to be removed or not.
1. Place the shift lever in the neutral position and operate
the parking brake.
2. Turn the propeller shaft fully clockwise and make an
alignment mark on the companion flange dust cover and
gear carrier.
3. Turn the propeller shaft fully counterclockwise and
measure the deviation between the alignment marks.
Limit: 5 mm
4. If the backlash exceeds the limit, replace the differential
carrier assembly.
GEAR OIL LEVEL CHECK
DIFFERENTIAL
1. Remove the filler plug.
2. Check that the gear oil level is within the specified range
from the bottom end of the filler plug hole.
Standard value (A): 6 mm
3. If the gear oil level exceeds the standard value, add the
specified gear oil up to the bottom end of the filler plug
hole.
Specified gear oil:
Hypoid gear oil API classification GL-5 or higher
SAE viscosity Number 90, 80W.
NOTE
10C or more: #90, less than 10C: #80
4. Fit the filler plug and tighten it to the specified torque.

1. Remove the filler plug.
2. Check that the gear oil level is up to the bottom end
of the filler plug hole.
3. If the gear oil level is lower than the bottom end of the
filler plug hole, add the specified gear oil up to the bottom
end of the filler plug hole.
Specified gear oil:
MITSUBISHI GENUINE DIA QUEEN SUPER AYC
FLUID
4. Fit the filler plug and tighten it to the specified torque.
GEAR OIL CHANGE
DIFFERENTIAL
1. Remove the drain plug to discharge the gear oil.
2. Fit the drain plug and tighten it to the specified torque.
Tightening torque: 49 Nm
3. Remove the filler plug and add the specified gear oil
up to the bottom end of the filler plug hole.
Specified gear oil:
Hypoid gear oil API classification GL-5 or higher
SAE viscosity Number 90, 80W.

5. Fit the filler plug and tighten it to the specified torque.
FLUID LEVEL CHECK
1. Remove the maintenance lid located in the luggage
compartment.
2.
If the vehicle has been run, leave it for 5 min. or more
in an ordinary temperature (10C to 30C) to allow the
accumulator internal pressure to drop.
NOTE
If the ambient temperature is less than 10C or less,
allow more time to leave the vehicle to stand idle.

Connect the MUT-II to the 16-pin diagnosis connector.
Turn on the ignition switch. Operate the MUT-II (Item
No.11) to activate the hydraulic unit forcibly for removing
the pressure from inside the accumulator.
Caution
Before connecting or disconnecting the MUT-II,
always turn off the ignition switch.
NOTE
(1) The forced activation (oil level check mode) will be
automatically canceled as soon as the directional
valve in the hydraulic unit is activated to the left and
right 20 times.
It can also be canceled forcibly by operating the clear
key on the MUT-II.
(2) While this function is being disabled by the fail-safe
function, the forced activation of the hydraulic unit
can not be executed.
3. Check that the fluid level in the oil reservoir is in the
range between MAX and MIN.
4. If the fluid level is lower than MIN, add the specified
fluid.
Specified fluid: Dia Queen ATF SP II or equivalent
5. Reinstall the maintenance lid.
