DTC P163B: 4WD ECU Malfunction [08/2019 - ]: Procedure
WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (4 WHEEL DRIVE CONTROL ECU AND TRANSFER SHIFT ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY - BODY GROUND)
- Disconnect the F46 4 wheel drive control ECU connector.
- Disconnect the B62 transfer shift actuator assembly connector.
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition F46-8 (TM1) or B62-2 (TM1) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher F46-7 (TM2) or B62-1 (TM2) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher Result
Proceed to OK NG
Result:
NG
REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
Result:
OK
See step 2
- INSPECT TRANSFER SHIFT ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY (TRANSFER SHIFT MOTOR)
- Disconnect the B62 transfer shift actuator assembly connector.
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
*a Component without harness connected
(Transfer Shift Actuator Assembly)Standard Resistance
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition 2 (TM1) - 1 (TM2) Always 1.5 to 10 Ω 2 (TM1) or 1 (TM2) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher Result
Proceed to OK NG
Result:
NG
REPLACE TRANSFER SHIFT ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY. Refer to DISASSEMBLY [08/2019 - ]
Result:
OK
See step 3
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (4 WHEEL DRIVE CONTROL ECU AND A.D.D. ACTUATOR (DIFFERENTIAL VACUUM ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY) - BODY GROUND)
- Disconnect the F46 4 wheel drive control ECU connector.
- Disconnect the D1 A.D.D. actuator (differential vacuum actuator assembly) connector.
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition F46-2 (DM1) or D1-1 (DM1) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher F46-6 (DM2) or D1-2 (DM2) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher Result
Proceed to OK NG
Result:
NG
REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
Result:
OK
See step 4
- INSPECT A.D.D. ACTUATOR (DIFFERENTIAL VACUUM ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY)
- Disconnect the D1 A.D.D. actuator (differential vacuum actuator assembly) connector.
*a Component without harness connected
(A.D.D. Actuator (Differential Vacuum Actuator Assembly)) - Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition 1 (DM1) - 2 (DM2) Always 1.5 to 10 Ω 1 (DM1) or 2 (DM2) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher Result
Proceed to OK NG
Result:
OK
REPLACE 4 WHEEL DRIVE CONTROL ECU. Refer to REMOVAL [08/2019 - ]
Result:
NG
REPLACE A.D.D. ACTUATOR (DIFFERENTIAL VACUUM ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY). Refer to REMOVAL [08/2015 - ]
- Disconnect the D1 A.D.D. actuator (differential vacuum actuator assembly) connector.
