DTC P17A4: Automatic Disconnecting Differential Motor Limit Switch Circuit [08/2019 - ]: Procedure
WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (4 WHEEL DRIVE CONTROL ECU - A.D.D. ACTUATOR (DIFFERENTIAL VACUUM ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY))
- Disconnect the F47 4 wheel drive control ECU connector.
- Disconnect the D1 A.D.D. actuator (differential vacuum actuator assembly) connector.
- Disconnect the A6 skid control ECU (master cylinder solenoid) connector.
- Disconnect the F51 ECM connector.
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition F47-8 (DL1) - D1-6 (DL1) Always Below 1 Ω F47-7 (DL2) - D1-5 (DL2) Always Below 1 Ω F47-2 (ADD) - D1-3 (ADD) Always Below 1 Ω D1-4 (GND) - Body ground Always Below 1 Ω F47-8 (DL1) or D1-6 (DL1) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher F47-7 (DL2) or D1-5 (DL2) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher F47-2 (ADD) or D1-3 (ADD) - 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
- CHECK 4 WHEEL DRIVE CONTROL ECU (ECU OUTPUT VOLTAGE)
- Disconnect the D1 A.D.D. actuator (differential vacuum actuator assembly) connector.

(to A.D.D. Actuator (Differential Vacuum Actuator Assembly)) - Disconnect the A6 skid control ECU (master cylinder solenoid) connector.
- Disconnect the F51 ECM connector.
- Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Voltage
Tester Connection Switch Condition Specified Condition D1-6 (DL1) - Body ground Ignition switch ON 10 to 14 V D1-5 (DL2) - Body ground Ignition switch ON 10 to 14 V D1-3 (ADD) - Body ground Ignition switch ON 10 to 14 V Result
Proceed to OK NG
Result:
OK
REPLACE A.D.D. ACTUATOR (DIFFERENTIAL VACUUM ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY). Refer to REMOVAL [08/2015 - ]
Result:
NG
REPLACE 4 WHEEL DRIVE CONTROL ECU. Refer to REMOVAL [08/2019 - ]
- Disconnect the D1 A.D.D. actuator (differential vacuum actuator assembly) connector.
