TRANSFER ASSEMBLY
Dismounting and remounting of transfer and transmission together
as a unit is described in Section 7A for Manual Transmission or 7B1
for Automatic Transmission, but it is also possible to dismount and
remount transfer assembly by itself as described below.
DISMOUNTING
IN ENGINE ROOM
1) Disconnect negative (±) cable from battery.
2) Remove distributor assembly (if equipped).
3) Place wood block between engine and dash panel so that it
serves as stopper when engine, transmission and transfer unit
hangs down as rear mounting member is removed.
CAUTION:
Make sure to use wood block to prevent contact which
may occur between dash panel and CMP sensor case
(G16), CMP sensor (J20) or intake manifold (H25), and fan
and shroud.
IN CABIN
1) Remove console box.
2) Remove shift lever of transmission and transfer.
ON LIFT
1) Drain transfer oil.
2) Remove rear propeller shaft.
3) Remove front propeller shaft.
4) Disconnect exhaust center pipe.
5) Disconnect speed sensor coupler.
6) Place transmission jack and remove mounting member.
7) Lower transmission jack gradually and check to ensure that
wood block serves as stopper between engine and dash panel.
8) Remove bolts for gear shift lever case.
9) Pull off breather hose.

Components and Functions
ComponentFunction
4WD switch
When the transfer shift lever is shifted to 4L or 4H position, this switch turns ON
and causes the 4WD control system to turn ON, unless it is shifted to N or 2H
within 1 second.
ECM or PCM
When the 4WD switch turns ON [unless it turns OFF within 1 second], this com-
ponent actuates the pump assembly. If the pressure in the air pump assembly
fails to increase higher than the set level even after the pump motor has run more
than 10 seconds, this component stops the motor to protect it.
Air pump assembly

Pump motor

Release valve

Pressure switchThe air pump assembly consists of a pump motor, release valve and a pressure
switch.
Pump motor:
Produces positive pressure which actuates the actuator.
Release valve:
Closes when transfer shift lever is shifted to 4H or 4L so that the positive pressure
is applied to the actuator, and opens when N or 2H to release the pressure to the
atmosphere.
Pressure switch:
Turns ON and OFF depending on the pressure level in the pump assembly
(whether higher or lower than the set pressure level). ECM or PCM detects the
pressure level through this switch.
Differential case assembly

Free axle hub

Axle lock clutch

ActuatorThe free axle hub, axle lock clutch and actuator are installed in the differential
left case. The positive pressure produced in the air pump assembly is applied
to the actuator which then pushes the axle lock clutch to be engaged with the free
axle hub. In this state, the drive force is transmitted to the front axle, resulting in
the 4WD mode.
When the actuator is free from the positive pressure [when it is under the atmo-
spheric pressure], the axle lock clutch is pushed back by the return spring force
and cannot be engaged with the free axle hub, resulting in the 2WD mode.
ª4WDº indicator lampIt lights up when 4WD control system is in the 4WD mode.

3. To air compressor
Actuator
1) Disconnect air hose from pump assembly and install special tool
to air hose as shown in figure. Loosen adjusting screw of special
tool.
Special Tool
(A): 09918-18110
2) Connect compressor air hose to special tool.
Blow air and turn adjusting screw to obtain specified pressure.
Specified pressure: 30.0 kPa (0.3 kg / cm
2, 4.25 psi)
CAUTION:
Do not apply a pressure exceeding 200 kPa (2.0 kg / cm
2,
28.4 psi) which may cause damage to diaphragm.
3) With the vehicle lifted so that both of the front wheels are off the
ground, turn one of the front wheels by hand and check the other
wheel, which should act as described below.

When the pressure from compressor is applied to actuator:
The other front wheel should turn in the direction opposite to
the wheel being turned by hand.

When the pressure from compressor is not applied to actuator:
The other front wheel should remain stationary while the wheel
pushed by hand is turning.
If the result is not satisfactory, inspect differential assembly. Re-
fer to ªINSPECTIONº of SECTION 7E in UNIT REPAIR MANU-
AL.

8-2 BODY ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The body electrical components of this vehicle are designed to operate on 12 Volts power supplied by the battery.
The electrical system utilizes negative ground polarity.
CAUTIONS IN SERVICING
When performing works related to electric systems, observe follow-
ing cautions for the purpose of protection of electrical parts and pre-
vention of a fire from occurrence.

When removing the battery from the vehicle or disconnecting the
cable from the battery terminals for inspection or service works
on the electric systems, always confirm first that the ignition
switch and all the other switches have been turned OFF. Other-
wise, the semi-conductor part may be damaged.

When disconnecting cables from the battery, be sure to discon-
nect the one from the negative (±) terminal first and then the other
from the positive (+) terminal.

Reverse the above order when connecting the cables to the bat-
tery terminals.

When disconnecting connectors, never pull the wiring harnesses.
Unlock the connector lock first and then pull them apart by holding
connectors themselves.

When connecting connectors, also hold connectors and put them
together until they lock securely (a click is heard).
