Part name

Function

Electronic control coupling (4WD solenoid)
• Based on a signal from the 4WD CM, it operates the electromagnetic clutch and transmits drive torque to the rear wheels.
Differential oil temperature sensor
• Informs the 4WD CM of the rear differential oil temperature.
4WD CM
• Controls operation of the electronic control coupling (4WD solenoid) based on signals input from the accelerator pedal position, speed, differential oil temperature and other sensors.
• Outputs coupling control condition and 4WD warning control information as a CAN signal.
• Controls the on-board diagnostic system and the fail-safe system if there is a malfunction in the 4WD system.
4WD warning light
• Illuminates or flashes to alert driver of a malfunction or control failure in the 4WD system.
PCM
• Sends the accelerator pedal position and engine speed signals, as CAN signals, to the 4WD CM.
TCM
• Sends the selector lever position and gear position signals, as CAN signals, to the 4WD CM.
DSC HU/CM
• Sends the four-wheel speed and DSC operating condition signals, as CAN signals, to the 4WD CM.
• Sends the coupling torque request signal, as a CAN signal, to the 4WD CM.
