SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
1. DESCRIPTION
When the transfer is in L4 and the differential lock switch is operated, the 4 wheel drive control ECU supplies power to the solenoid to switch the rear differential from free to locked, and cuts power to switch the rear differential from locked to free.
for 2WD:
When the differential lock switch is operated, the 4 wheel drive control ECU supplies power to the solenoid to switch the rear differential from free to locked, and cuts power to switch the rear differential from locked to free.

3. FUNCTION OF COMPONENTS
Components |
Functions |
|
---|---|---|
Differential lock coil |
Switches the rear differential between free and locked according to commands from the 4 wheel drive control ECU. |
|
Differential Lock Indicator Switch |
Detects the rear differential locked condition and sends that information to the 4 wheel drive control ECU. |
|
Combination meter assembly |
|
Illuminates to inform the user of the locked condition. Blinks to inform the user of switching between free and locked. Rapidly blinks to inform the user of a system malfunction. for 4WD: When the differential lock switch is pressed while not in L4, the indicator light blinks 3 times and the buzzer sounds 3 times. HINT: When the rear differential is in the locked condition, ABS, VSC and TRAC are prohibited. |
Differential lock switch |
Selects free or locked for the rear differential. |
|
Skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly) |
Outputs wheel speed signals to the 4 wheel drive control ECU via CAN communication. |
|
4 wheel drive control ECU |
Detects the vehicle status according to signals such as the wheel and vehicle speed signals received via CAN communication, and operates or stops the differential lock coil and switches the rear differential between locked and free according to the differential lock switch signal. |
