TC and CG Terminal Circuit

DESCRIPTION

Connecting terminals TC and CG of the DLC3 causes the 4WD control ECU to display 2-digit DTCs by flashing the AWD warning light.

HINT:

When each warning light remains blinking, a short to ground in the wiring of terminal TC of the DLC3 or an internal short to ground in each ECU is suspected.
