DTC No.	Detection Item	DTC Detection Condition	Trouble Area
P17C0	Rear Differential Lock Solenoid Circuit Low	Diagnosis Condition: Directly after ignition switch is turned to ON, or when rear differential is switched between free and locked (differential lock coil operating) with ignition switch turned to ON Malfunction Status: Short to ground in differential lock coil drive circuit Malfunction Time: 0.05 seconds or more Other: 1 trip detection logic	Wire harness and connector 4 wheel drive control ECU Differential lock coil

WIRING DIAGRAM

PROCEDURE

1.	CHECK DIFFERENTIAL LOCK COIL

(a) Disconnect the 4 wheel drive control ECU connector.

(b) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

Standard Resistance:

Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
F12-1 (SL+) or F12-5 (SL-) - Body ground	Always	10 kΩ or higher

REPLACE 4 WHEEL DRIVE CONTROL ECU

2.	CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (4 WHEEL DRIVE CONTROL ECU - DIFFERENTIAL LOCK COIL)

(a) Disconnect the F12 4 wheel drive control ECU connector.

(b) Disconnect the D28 differential lock coil connector.

Standard Resistance:

Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
F12-1 (SL+) or D28-2 (SL+) - Body ground	Always	10 kΩ or higher
F12-5 (SL-) or D28-1 (SL-) - Body ground	Always	10 kΩ or higher

REPLACE DIFFERENTIAL LOCK COIL

REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
