HEAVY TIGHT-CORNER BRAKING SYMPTOM OCCURS
Description
Heavy tight-corner braking symptom occurs when the vehicle is driven and the steering wheel is turned fully to either side after the engine is started.
NOTE: Light tight-corner braking symptom may occur depending on driving conditions. This is not malfunction.
Diagnosis Procedure
1.PERFORM ECM SELF-DIAGNOSIS
With CONSULT
Perform self-diagnosis for “ENGINE”.
Is any DTC detected? YES >> Check the DTC. Refer to EC-93, "DTC Index".
NO >> GO TO 2.
2.PERFORM SELF-DIAGNOSIS
With CONSULT
Perform self-diagnosis for “ALL MODE AWD/4WD”.
Is DTC “U1000” detected? YES >> Proceed to DLN-55, "Diagnosis Procedure".
NO >> GO TO 3.
3.CHECK AWD SOLENOID
Perform the trouble diagnosis of the AWD solenoid. Refer to DLN-38, "Diagnosis Procedure".
Is the inspection result normal? YES >> GO TO 4.
NO >> Repair or replace the error-detected parts.
4.CHECK ELECTRIC CONTROLLED COUPLING
- Turn the ignition switch OFF.
- Set the transaxle to neutral. Release the parking brake.
- Lift up the vehicle.
- Rotate the propeller shaft by hand.
- Hold rear wheel of right and left lightly.
Does rear wheel rotate? YES >> Replace electric controlled coupling for mechanical malfunction (clutch sticking etc.). Refer to DLN-114, "Removal and Installation".
NO >> Check each harness connector pin terminal for disconnection.
VEHICLE DOES NOT ENTER AWD MODE
Description
Vehicle does not enter 4-wheel drive mode even though AWD warning is not displayed.
Diagnosis Procedure
1.CHECK INFORMATION DISPLAY (COMBINATION METER)
Perform the trouble diagnosis of combination meter. Refer to MWI-52, "Work flow".
Is the inspection result normal? YES >> GO TO 2.
NO >> Repair or replace the error-detected parts.
2.CHECK PARKING BRAKE SWITCH SIGNAL
With CONSULT
Check “PARKING BRAKE SW SIG” of CONSULT “DATA MONITOR” for “ALL MODE AWD/4WD”.
| Monitor Item | Condition | Status |
| PARKING BRAKE SW SIG | When the parking brake pedal is operation. | On |
| When the parking brake pedal is not operation. | Off |
Is the inspection result normal? YES >> GO TO 3.
NO >> Proceed to BRC-115, "Component Function Check".
3.CRUISE TEST
Drive the vehicle for a period of time.
Does any symptom occur? YES >> Replace electric controlled coupling for mechanical malfunction (mechanical engagement of clutch is not possible). Refer to DLN-114, "Removal and Installation".
NO >> Check each harness connector pin terminal for disconnection.
AWD HIGH TEMP IS DISPLAYED ON INFORMATION DISPLAY
Description
While driving, AWD warning (AWD High Temp. Stop vehicle) is displayed on information display (combination meter).
- This symptom protects drivetrain parts when a heavy load is applied to the electric controlled coupling and multiple disc clutch temperature increases. Also, optional distribution of torque sometimes becomes rigid before AWD warning (AWD High Temp. Stop vehicle) is displayed. Both cases are not malfunction. Refer to DLN-22, "Protection Function".
- When this symptom occurs, stop vehicle and allow it to idle for some times. Displays will stop and system will be restored.
TIRE SIZE INCORRECT IS DISPLAYED ON INFORMATION DISPLAY
Description
While driving, AWD warning (Tire Size Incorrect: See Owner’s Manual) is displayed on information display (combination meter).
Diagnosis Procedure
1.CHECK TIRE
Check the following.
- Tire pressure
- Wear condition
- Front and rear tire size (There is no difference between front and rear tires.)
Is the inspection result normal? YES >> GO TO 2.
NO >> Repair or replace error-detected parts. And then, drive the vehicle at speed of 20 km/h (12 MPH) or more for 5 seconds or more. Improper size information is initialized accordingly.
2.CHECK INPUT SIGNAL OF TIRE DIAMETER
With CONSULT
- Start the engine.
- Drive at 20 km/h (12 MPH) or more for approximately 4 minutes continually.
- Check “DIS-TIRE MONI” of CONSULT “DATA MONITOR” for “ALL MODE AWD/4WD”.
Does the item on “DATA MONITOR” indicate “0 - 4 mm”? YES >> INSPECTION END
NO >> GO TO 3.
3.TERMINAL INSPECTION
Check AWD control unit harness connector for disconnection.
Is the inspection result normal? YES >> Replace AWD control unit. Refer to DLN-67, "Removal and Installation".
NO >> Repair or replace the error-detected parts.
