DRIVE LINE CONTROL SYSTEM (TOD) 4B2–6
High-Low Planetary Gear Set
Establishes an auxiliary transmission mechanism. When
the transfer shift lever is set to the 2H or TOD position, the
reduction gear ratio is 1.000 and the corresponding
driving force is generated. When the transfer shift lever is
set to the 4L position, the reduction gear ratio is 2.480 and
the corresponding driving force is generated.
262RW030
4H and 4L Switches
Detects the shift position of the transfer from the
movement of the transfer lever and outputs signals to the
TOD control unit.
261RW002
Transfer Connector
Transmits the input and output signals of the speed
sensors, electromagnetic coil, and 4H and 4L switches to
the vehicle harness. A waterproof 12-pin type is used.
