Trouble Area

C1268

Transfer L4 Position Switch Circuit

Either of the following is detected:

  • The skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) detects an L4 detection switch (Transfer shift actuator assembly) open circuit.
  • The skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) receives an L4 abnormal status signal from the HDCS terminal.
  • L4 detection switch (Transfer shift actuator assembly)
  • L4 detection switch circuit
  • Skid control ECU (Brake actuator assembly)

HINT:

DTC will be output when conditions for either of the patterns in the table above are met.

NOTICE:

When replacing the skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly), perform zero point calibration and store system information (See page PROCEDURE PROCEDURE ).

PROCEDURE

1.

INSPECT L4 DETECTION SWITCH (TRANSFER SHIFT ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY)

(a) Inspect the transfer shift actuator assembly (See page OK: ).

OK:

The transfer shift actuator assembly is normal.

NG

REPLACE TRANSFER SHIFT ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY

OK

2.

CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (BRAKE ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY - L4 DETECTION SWITCH)

(a) Disconnect the S1 skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) connector.

(b) Disconnect the T4 L4 detection switch (Transfer shift actuator assembly) connector.

(c) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below

Standard Resistance:
