3. Check for continuity between SH-AWD control unit connector terminals A3 and A12.





Is there continuity?

YES -

Go to step 4.

NO -

Go to step 7.

4. Check the REAR DIFFERENTIAL FLUID TEMPERATURE in the DATA LIST is above 68 °F(20 °C) with the HDS before proceeding to the next step. If the temperature is below 68 °F(20 °C), drive the vehicle to warm up the rear differential until the fluid temperature becomes above 68 °F (20 °C).

5. Measure the resistance between SH-AWD control unit connector terminals A3 and A12.





Is there 2.0 Ohms or more?

YES -

Go to step 6.

NO -

Go to step 10.

6. Check for continuity between SH-AWD control unit connector terminal A3 and body ground.





Is there continuity?

YES -

Repair a short to body ground in the wire between SH-AWD control unit connector terminal A3 and body ground.�

NO -

Check for loose connector terminals at the SH-AWD control unit and repair if necessary. If the connections are OK, update the SH-AWD control unit if it does not have the latest software SH-AWD Control Unit Update, or substitute a known-good SH-AWD control unit Service and Repair and recheck. If the symptom/indication goes away with the updating SH-AWD control unit, troubleshooting is complete. If the symptom/indication goes away with a known-good SH-AWD control unit, replace the original SH-AWD control unit Service and Repair.�

NOTE: If a new SH-AWD control unit was used in place of a known-good control unit and the new control unit will not initialize, replace the rear differential right side case.

7. Disconnect the right solenoid 4P connector.

8. Connect SH-AWD control unit connector terminals A3 and A12 with a jumper wire.






9. Check for continuity between right solenoid 4P connector terminals No. 3 and No. 4.





Is there continuity?

YES -

Replace the rear differential right side case Rear Differential Side Case Replacement.�

NO -

Repair an open in the wires between right solenoid 4P connector terminals No. 3 and No. 4.�

10. Disconnect the right solenoid 4P connector.

11. Check for continuity between right solenoid 4P connector terminals No. 3 and No. 4.





Is there continuity?

YES -

Repair a short in the wires between SH-AWD control unit connector A and the right solenoid 4P connector.�

NO -
