- Do the rear differential fluid pressure sensor test with the HDS. If the
rear differential fluid pressure sensor test is OK, replace the rear
differential assembly.
- Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.
- Turn the vehicle to the ON mode.
- Do the AWD system bleeding with the HDS.
- Start the engine.
- Select FUNCTIONAL TEST in the AWD WITH INTELLIGENT CONTROL
with the HDS.
- Select OIL PRESSURE CONTROL TEST in the FUNCTIONAL TEST with the
HDS.
- Check the results displayed on the HDS.
- If Normal is displayed, intermittent failure, the system is OK at
this time, the
test is completed.
- If 2-1 and 5-1 are displayed: go to step 29.
- Replace the rear differential fluid.
- Do the AWD system bleeding with the HDS.
- Start the engine.
- Select FUNCTIONAL TEST in the AWD WITH INTELLIGENT CONTROL
with the HDS.
- Select OIL PRESSURE CONTROL TEST in the FUNCTIONAL TEST with the HDS.
- Check the results displayed on the HDS.
- If Normal is displayed, the test is completed.
- If 2-1 and 5-1 are displayed: go to step 35.
- Replace the rear differential fluid.
- Do the rear differential fluid pressure sensor test and the rear
differential
solenoid valve test with the HDS. If the rear differential fluid pressure
sensor test
and the rear differential solenoid valve test is OK, replace the rear
differential
assembly.
- Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.
- Turn the vehicle to the ON mode.
- Do the AWD system bleeding with the HDS.
- Start the engine.
- Select FUNCTIONAL TEST in the AWD WITH INTELLIGENT CONTROL
with the HDS.
- Select OIL PRESSURE CONTROL TEST in the FUNCTIONAL TEST with the
HDS.
- Check the results displayed on the HDS.
- If Normal is displayed, intermittent failure, the system is OK at
this time, the
test is completed.
- If 3-1 is displayed: go to step 44.
- Replace the rear differential fluid.
- Do the AWD system bleeding with the HDS.
- Start the engine.
- Select FUNCTIONAL TEST in the AWD WITH INTELLIGENT CONTROL
with the HDS.
- Select OIL PRESSURE CONTROL TEST in the FUNCTIONAL TEST with the
HDS.
- Check the results displayed on the HDS.
- If Normal is displayed, the test is completed.
- If 3-1 is displayed: go to step 50.
- Do the rear differential solenoid valve test with the HDS. If the rear
differential solenoid valve test is OK, replace the rear differential
assembly.
- Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.
- Replace the rear differential fluid.
- Do the AWD system bleeding with the HDS.
- Start the engine.
- Select FUNCTIONAL TEST in the AWD WITH INTELLIGENT CONTROL

differential solenoid valve test is OK, replace the rear differential
assembly.
REAR DIFFERENTIAL SOLENOID VALVE TEST (AWD)
Test
1. HDS - Connect
2. Rear Differential Solenoid Valve - Test (With HDS)
- Start the engine
- Select the FUNCTIONAL TEST in the AWD WITH INTELLIGENT CONTROL with the
HDS
- Select the SOLENOID TEST in the FUNCTIONAL TEST with the HDS
- Do LEVEL 1, then do LEVEL 7 of the SOLENOID TEST in that order with the
HDS
- Check the rear differential solenoid valve for operation with the HDS. A
clicking sound should be
heard.
- If no clicking sound is heard, replace the rear differential
solenoid valve.
- If a clicking sound is heard, go to the next procedure.
3. Vehicle - Lift
4. Rear Differential Solenoid Valve - Remove
5. Rear Differential Solenoid Valve - Test
- Connect a tube (A) to the rear differential solenoid valve (B)
- Blow the air to the tube.
- If the air flows out of the port, go to step 3.
- If the air does not flow out of the port, replace the rear
differential solenoid valve.
- Connect a jumper wire from the negative battery terminal to the rear
differential
solenoid valve body, and connect another jumper wire from the positive
battery
terminal to connector terminal No. 1
- Blow the air to the tube.
- If the air flows out of the port, replace the rear differential
solenoid valve.
- If the air does not flow out of the port, the rear differential
solenoid valve is
OK, and the test is complete.
6. Rear Differential Solenoid Valve - Install
7. Rear Differential Fluid - Refill
8. AWD System - Air Bleed
9. Test Drive - Check
READ NEXT:
1. Problem verification.
Turn the vehicle to the ON mode.
Does the AWD system indicator come on?
YES
Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time.
NO
The failure is duplicated. Go to step 2.
NOTE: If necessary, compare the noise with a known-good vehicle of the same
type. If the noise is remarkably
abnormal, do the following troubleshooting.
