SH-AWD Control Unit Initialization




SH-AWD(R) Control Unit Initialization

Whenever the SH-AWD control unit is replaced, it must be initialized.

1. With the ignition switch in LOCK (0), or the vehicle in the OFF mode, connect the HDS to the DLC (A) located under the driver's side of the dashboard.





2. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II), or press the engine start/stop button to select the ON mode.

3. Make sure the HDS communicates with the vehicle and the SH-AWD control unit. If it does not, go to the DLC circuit troubleshooting Testing and Inspection.

4. From the mode menu, select SH-AWD, select MISCELLANEOUS TEST, then select INITIALIZATION with the HDS, and follow the screen prompts.

NOTE: See the HDS help menu for specific instructions.
