id031900110500
Caution
• When performing configuration, it is necessary to read the coupling component calibration data from
the AWD control module before replacing it. Connect the M-MDS to the vehicle and perform vehicle
identification before removing the AWD control module. The coupling component calibration data is
temporarily stored in the M-MDS.
1.Connect the M-MDS to the DLC-2.
2.After the vehicle is identified, select the following items from the initial screen of the M-MDS.
1. Select “Module Programming”.
2. Select “Programmable Module Installation”.
3.Then, select the following from the screen menu.
1. Select “4X4M”.
4.Perform the configuration according to the directions on the screen.
Caution
• When the configuration is performed, CAN communication between the AWD control module and
control module connected to the CAN line is cut temporarily, and communication error DTCs may be
detected. After performing the configuration, verify the DTCs for the control module connected to the
CAN line and clear it if any DTC is detected.
5.Verify all the DTCs for the control module connected to the CAN line.
• If any DTC is stored, clear it.
• If the DTC is cleared, finish the procedure because the configuration is completely normally.
• If the DTC remains, perform troubleshooting according to the DTC.

■ AWD CONTROL MODULE INSPECTION
id031900800200
id031900800200
Note
• AWD CM terminal voltage can vary depending on measuring conditions and vehicle aging, resulting
in misdiagnosis. Therefore, it is necessary to perform an overall inspection of the input/output
systems and AWD CM to determine which part is malfunctioning.
• With the AWD CM connector connected, measure voltage by connecting the voltmeter negative (-)
lead to the body ground and positive (+) lead to each AWD CM terminal.
1.Measure voltage or resistance at each AWD CM terminal using a voltmeter and an ohmmeter.
• If not as specified, replace the AWD CM.

■ AWD CONTROL MODULE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION

id031900800300
Caution
• When performing configuration, it is necessary to read the coupling component calibration data from
the AWD control module before replacing it. Connect the M-MDS to the vehicle and perform vehicle
identification before removing the AWD control module. The coupling component calibration data is
temporarily stored in the M-MDS.
• If the configuration was not performed after replacing with a new AWD control module, the following
conditions can be considered as occurring because the coupling component calibration data was not
recorded in the AWD control module.
― System does not operate normally.
― Problem with coupling component durability may occur.
Note
• The AWD control module prior to replacement stores the coupling component calibration data.
• The characteristic value of the coupling component is not stored in the new AWD control module.
• If coupling component calibration data from the AWD control module prior to replacement cannot be
read, perform the coupling component calibration data writing. (SeeCOUPLING COMPONENT
CALIBRATION DATA WRITING.)
1.When replacing the AWD control module, perform the configuration. (See AWD CONTROL MODULE
CONFIGURATION.)
2.Disconnect the negative battery terminal. (See NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMINAL
DISCONNECTION/CONNECTION.)
3.Remove the front scuff plate (RH). (See FRONT SCUFF PLATE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
4.Remove the front side trim (RH). (See FRONT SIDE TRIM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
5.Remove in the order indicated in the table.
6.Install in the reverse order of removal.
Note
• If configuration cannot be performed by reading/writing of the coupling component calibration data,
perform the coupling component calibration data writing. (SeeCOUPLING COMPONENT
CALIBRATION DATA WRITING.)

Caution
• If the characteristic value of a new coupling component is not input to the AWD control module or
the characteristic value is input incorrectly after replacing the coupling component, it could result in
the following conditions:
― The system does not operate normally.
― A problem with durability of the coupling component occurs.
• After replacing the coupling component, read out the characteristic value of a new coupling
component and write it to the AWD control module. (SeeCOUPLING COMPONENT CALIBRATION
DATA WRITING.)
• Read out the characteristic value of the coupling component from the label or mark shown in the
figure.
ac5uuw00003488
Note
• The AWD control module stores the characteristic value of the coupling component before
replacement.
• If the characteristic value of a new coupling component is not written, the AWD control module does
not store the value.
