- Verify the AWD indicator is not illuminated.
- If illuminated
- Ignition OFF/Vehicle OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the S126 Drive Mode Select Switch.
- Test for infinite resistance between the control circuit terminal 2 and ground.
- If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
- If infinite resistance, test or replace the S126 Drive Mode Select Switch.
- If not illuminated
- Ignition ON/Vehicle In Service Mode, connect a 3 A fused jumper wire between the control circuit terminal 2 and the ground.
- Verify the AWD indicator is illuminated.
- If not illuminated

- Test for less than 1 V between the control circuit and ground.
- If 1 V or greater, repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
- If less than 1 V
- Test for less than 2 Ω in the control circuit end to end.
- If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
- If less than 2 Ω, test or replace the S126 Drive Mode Select Switch.
