TESTING & INSPECTION
AXLE SHAFT END PLAY
Montero & Montero Sport
Using dial indicator, check axle shaft end play. End play
should be .010" (.25 mm). If end play is not within specification,
replace axle bearing. See AXLE SHAFT OVERHAUL under OVERHAUL.
AXLE TOTAL BACKLASH
1) Raise and support rear axle. Place transmission in
Neutral. Apply parking brake. Rotate drive shaft clockwise. Place
reference marks on pinion dust cover and differential housing.
2) Rotate drive shaft counterclockwise, and measure distance
between reference marks. Differential must be removed and backlash
adjusted if distance exceeds 0.2" (5 mm). See RING GEAR BACK-LASH
procedure under DIFFERENTIAL ASSEMBLY (LIMITED SLIP) under OVERHAUL.
LIMITED SLIP DIFFERENTIAL PRELOAD
1) Place transmission in Neutral. Block front wheels. Raise
one rear wheel off ground and remove wheel. Release parking brake.
2) Using torque wrench and axle puller adapter, measure
starting torque while rotating wheel in forward direction. See Fig. 1.
Differential must be repaired if torque is less than 18 ft. lbs. (25
N.m).

LOCKING DIFFERENTIAL (MONTERO)
Air Pump
Page 371 of 1501
Connect air pressure gauge in-line to air hose from air pump.
Air pump is located in right storage area, under rear seat. Connect
battery voltage to air pump (positive lead to Red wire). The air pump
is operating correctly when the following sequences occur;
* Pump should operate for no more than 5 seconds.
* Pressure should be 4-6 psi (.28-.41 kg/cm
) within 10-20
seconds after pump has stopped.
* After air pump has stopped operating, it should not restart
operating for 5 minutes.
Center Differential Lock Operation Switch
See ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM article in BRAKES.
Differential Lock Switch
Remove switch from center console. To test switch operation,
see Fig. 2 . Replace switch as needed.
Differential Lock Control Unit
See ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM article in BRAKES.
Lock Detection Switch
1) Raise and support vehicle. Disconnect air hose connection
near rear differential. Connect air source with pressure regulator and
pressure gauge. Apply 4 psi (.28 kg/cm
) pressure. Disconnect lock
detection switch harness connector.
2) Using ohmmeter, check if continuity exists with air
pressure applied. Continuity should exist with air pressure applied.
If continuity exists, ensure axle is locked by attempting to turn rear
wheels separately of each other.
3) If continuity does not exist, go to step 4). If continuity\
does exist but axles are not locked, see CARRIER ASSEMBLY under
REMOVAL & INSTALLATION and inspect locking assembly.
4) Remove detection switch from housing. Using ohmmeter,
check continuity of switch. Continuity should exist with switch
plunger extended. With plunger in neutral position, continuity should
not exist. Replace switch as needed.

Using dial indicator, measure runout at back side of ring
gear. See Fig. 7. Runout must be within .002" (.05 mm). If runout is
excessive, change ring gear-to-differential case mounting position.
Recheck runout.

DIFFERENTIAL LOCK - REAR
1998 Mitsubishi Montero
1997-98 DRIVE AXLES
Mitsubishi Rear Differential Lock
Montero, Montero Sport
DESCRIPTION & OPERATION
The rear differential lock system is designed to be used only
when low-speed wheel spin occurs in a ditch, or on a slippery or
uneven surface. The indicator light will blink when switch is turned
on as system completes locking operation. After the differential is
locked, the light will stop blinking and remain on.
The rear differential lock system will not lock with vehicle
in 4H or 2H position, and if vehicle speed is greater than 7 MPH.
Vehicle speed should be maintained at less than 12 MPH during rear
differential lock operation.
NOTE: The Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) does not operate when the
rear differential is locked. It is normal for the ABS
warning light to be on at this time.
COMPONENT LOCATIONS
Rear Differential Lock Air Pump
Air pump is located under left side of rear seat.
Rear Differential Lock Control Unit
Control unit is located under left side lower quarter trim
panel in rear compartment.
Rear Differential Lock Switch
Lock switch is located on lower center of instrument panel,
below radio.
Rear Differential Lock Detection Switch
Lock detection switch is located on rear differential
carrier.
TROUBLE SHOOTING
INDICATOR LIGHT FLASHES WHEN LOCK SWITCH IS TURNED ON
If vehicle speed is greater than 7 MPH, reduce speed to less
than 3 MPH. If vehicle speed is less than 7 MPH, rotate steering wheel
to right and left to reset light.
INDICATOR LIGHT FLASHES WHEN LOCK SWITCH IS TURNED OFF
If indicator flashes after lock switch is turned off, depress
and release accelerator several times while driving straight ahead to
reset light.
TESTING

Using voltmeter, backprobe rear differential lock control
unit connector between terminal No. 6 (ground) and specified terminal
under specified conditions. See WIRING DIAGRAMS. See

REAR DIFFERENTIAL LOCK DETECTION SWITCH
NOTE: DO NOT apply more pressure than required to bring pressure
gauge reading to about 4 psi (.28 kg/cm ).
1) Raise and support vehicle. Remove air pipe and air hose
connections. Connect a pressure gauge and air regulator (for adjusting
compressed air pressure) to air hose. See Fig. 2. Using air regulator,
adjust compressed air pressure until pressure gauge indicates about 4
psi (.28 kg/cm
).
2) While an assistant holds one wheel on one side of vehicle
stationary, slowly turn wheel on other side of vehicle. Using
ohmmeter, check for continuity between rear differential lock
detection switch connector terminals.
3) With air supplied, continuity should exist. With air
released, continuity should not exist. If continuity is not as
specified, replace lock detection switch.
