CHECK DIFFERENTIAL LOCK SOLENOID
Check differential lock solenoid. Refer to Component Inspection .

Is the inspection result normal?

YES

GO TO STEP 7 .

NO

Differential lock solenoid is malfunctioning. Replace differential assembly. Refer to Removal and Installation .
CHECK TERMINALS AND HARNESS CONNECTORS
- Check differential lock control unit pin terminals for damage or loose connection with harness connector.
- Check differential lock solenoid pin terminals for damage or loose connection with harness connector.
Is the inspection result normal?

YES

After erasing the DTC, perform DTC confirmation procedure again. If DTC "P1848" is detected, replace differential lock control unit. Refer to Removal and Installation .

NO

Repair or replace the malfunctioning parts.
