PROCEDURE

1.

CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (4 WHEEL DRIVE CONTROL ECU - DIFFERENTIAL VACUUM ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY)

(a) Disconnect the A25 4 wheel drive control ECU connector.

(b) Disconnect the G1 A.D.D. actuator (differential vacuum actuator assembly) connector.

(c) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

Standard Resistance:

Tester Connection

Condition

Specified Condition

A25-7 (DL1) - G1-6 (DL1)

Always

Below 1 Ω

A25-20 (DL2) - G1-5 (DL2)

Always

Below 1 Ω

G1-4 (GND) - Body ground

Always

Below 1 Ω

A25-7 (DL1) or G1-6 (DL1) - Body ground

Always

10 kΩ or higher

A25-20 (DL2) or G1-5 (DL2) - Body ground

Always

10 kΩ or higher
NG

REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK

2.

INSPECT DIFFERENTIAL VACUUM ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY (LIMIT SWITCH)

(a) Disconnect the G1 A.D.D. actuator (differential vacuum actuator assembly) connector.

(b) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

Standard Resistance:

Tester Connection

Condition

Specified Condition

6 (DL1) - Body ground

Always

10 kΩ or higher

5 (DL2) - Body ground

Always

10 kΩ or higher
