3. Check for continuity between SH-AWD control unit connector terminals A1 and A11.
Is there continuity?
YES -
Go to step 4.
NO -
Go to step 7.
4. Check the REAR DIFFERENTIAL FLUID TEMPERATURE in the DATA LIST is above 68 掳F (20 掳C) with the HDS before proceeding
to the next step. If the temperature is below 68 掳F (20 掳C), drive the vehicle to warm up the rear differential until the fluid temperature
becomes above 68 掳F (20 掳C).
5. Measure the resistance between SH-AWD control unit connector terminals A1 and A11.
Is there 2.0 Ohms or more?
