4 Wire harness check
1) Disconnect connector from 4WD control module
connector “E91” with ignition switch OFF.
2) Check for proper connection to “E91-13” terminal of
4WD control module connector.
3) If OK, measure resistance between “PNK/WHT” terminal
of 4L/N switch connector and “E91-13” terminal of 4WD
control module connector.
Is it 1
Ω
or less?
Substitute a known-
good 4WD control
