NOTE:
  • Before you troubleshoot, review the general troubleshooting information (see GENERAL TROUBLESHOOTING INFORMATION  ).
  • Make sure the No. 2 (SVTM-4) (30 A) fuse in the main under-hood fuse box is OK.
  • Make sure there are no loose connector terminals at the SH-AWD control unit.
  • Make sure the charging system and the battery are OK.
  • Make sure the PGM-FI system and the A/T system is not in the middle of updating.
  1. Test the battery (see BATTERY TEST ). Charge or replace the battery if necessary.
  2. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
  3. Check the COMPLETE MEMORIZATION in the DATA LIST with the HDS.

    Does the data list show COMPLETED? 

    YES  -Go to step 4.

    NO  -Do the SH-AWD system memorization procedure for each of the following, then go to step 4.

  4. Check for DTCs in the VSA system with the HDS.

    Are any steering angle sensor DTCs indicated? 

    YES  -Go to the indicated DTC'S TROUBLESHOOTING .

    NO  -Go to step 5.

  5. Start the engine.
  6. Check the SH-AWD indicator value with the HDS.

    Is the SH-AWD indicator value OFF? 

    YES  -Go to the gauge control module self-diagnostic function (see SELF-DIAGNOSTIC FUNCTION ).

    NO  -Update the SH-AWD control unit if it does not have the latest software (see SH-AWD® CONTROL UNIT UPDATE  ), or substitute a known-good SH-AWD control unit (see SH-AWD® CONTROL UNIT REPLACEMENT  ), and recheck. If the symptom/indication goes away with the updated SH-AWD control unit, troubleshooting is complete. If the symptom/indication goes away with a known-good SH-AWD control unit, replace the original SH-AWD control unit (see SH-AWD® CONTROL UNIT REPLACEMENT  ).
