DTC detecting condition

Trouble area

Though transfer shift actuator motor position switch is “4L-lock”
position, the ON signal is not input from the 4L/N switch.

1

Was “4WD control system check” performed?

Go to Step 2.

Go to “4WD Control
System Check: Motor-
Shift Type (Transfer with
Shift Actuator)”.

2

4L/N switch circuit check
1) Disconnect 4L/N switch connector with ignition switch

OFF.

2) Check for proper connection to terminal of 4L/N switch

connector.

3) If connection is OK, measure voltage between “PNK/

WHT” terminal of 4L/N switch connector and vehicle
body ground with ignition switch ON.

Is it 10 – 14 V?

Go to Step 3.

Go to Step 4.

4L/N switch check
1) Check 4L/N switch referring to “Transfer Assembly

Inspection: Motor-Shift Type (Transfer with Shift
Actuator)”.

Is switch in good condition?

Substitute a known-
good 4WD control
module and recheck.

Replace 4L/N switch.

4

Wire harness check
1) Disconnect connector from 4WD control module

connector “E91” with ignition switch OFF.

2) Check for proper connection to “E91-13” terminal of

4WD control module connector.

3) If OK, measure resistance between “PNK/WHT” terminal

of 4L/N switch connector and “E91-13” terminal of 4WD
control module connector.

Is it 1

Ω

or less?

Substitute a known-
good 4WD control
module and recheck.

“PNK/WHT” wire is
open or high resistance.
