Refer to "53.Driveline Control 3A.Troubleshooting(4WD models) diagnostic system check-transfer case controls".
1) Connect the scan tool.
2) Turn OFF the ignition switch until communication with the scan tool is discontinued.
3) Turn ON the ignition switch.
4) Observe the DTC information with a scan tool. Is a DTC set?
Yes
=>Go to TCCM internal resistance check.
No
Go to Intermittent condition of transfer control.
Refer to "204.Driveline, Axle 17D.Symptom intermittent conditions of transfer case control system".
1) Disconnect the TCCM harness connector (C15).
2) Measure the resistance between the CAN Low circuit and the CAN High circuit of the TCCM (pins 16 and 4 of C15) with a DMM.
Refer to "LHD 4WD" in the ETM (wiring diagram). (Open using the ETM viewer.).
Refer to "RHD 4WD" in the ETM (wiring diagram). (Open using the ETM viewer.).
Standard: 115 to 125 Ω
The reading is within the specified range.
=>Go to Transfer actuator resistance check.
The reading is outside the specified range.
1) Disconnect the transfer actuator harness connector (E38).
2) Measure the resistance between the CAN Low circuit and the CAN High circuit of the transfer actuator (pins 16 and 4 of C15) with a DMM.
Refer to "LHD 4WD" in the ETM (wiring diagram). (Open using the ETM viewer.).
Refer to "RHD 4WD" in the ETM (wiring diagram). (Open using the ETM viewer.).
Standard: 115 to 125 Ω
The reading is within the specified range.
=>Go to CAN communication circuit wire harness and connector inspection.
The reading is outside the specified range.
Replace the transfer actuator.
Refer to "3.Driveline, Axle 3D.Transfer Case transfer disassembly".
Refer to "3.Driveline, Axle 3D.Transfer Case transfer reassembly".
1) Turn OFF the ignition switch.
2) Disconnect the TCCM harness connector (C15) and transfer actuator (E38).
3) Inspect the wire harnesses and connectors for the following. Is the result normal?
Wire harness to be inspected
Items to be inspected
Refer to "LHD 4WD" in the ETM (wiring diagram). (Open using the ETM viewer.).
Refer to "RHD 4WD" in the ETM (wiring diagram). (Open using the ETM viewer.).
Yes
No
Repair the circuit as necessary.
1) Clear the DTC with a scan tool.
2) Turn OFF the ignition switch for 30 seconds or more.
3) Start the engine.
4) Operate the vehicle under the conditions for running the DTC.
5) Observe the DTC information with a scan tool. Is a DTC set?
Yes
No
Go to Intermittent condition of transfer control.
Refer to "204.Driveline, Axle 17D.Symptom intermittent conditions of transfer case control system".
Note
Refer to "3.Driveline, Axle 3Z.Driveline, Axle Electrical Control TCCM removal".
Refer to "3.Driveline, Axle 3Z.Driveline, Axle Electrical Control TCCM installation".
Refer to "3.Driveline, Axle 3Z.Driveline, Axle Electrical Control TCCM setting".
