DTC P1783 Transfer N SW Circuit Malfunction

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The propeller shaft and wheels are free even when the transmission shift lever is set to P as long as the
transfer shift lever is in Neutral position. The A/T.P. indicator light lights up to warn the drive that the propeller
shaft and wheels are not locked.
If the A/T.P. indicator light goes on, the transfer shift lever should be shifted out of N position.
The ECM receive signal TFN from the indicator switch (neutral position switch).
DTC No. DTC Detecting Condition Trouble Area
While driving under conditions (a) and (b) for 30 seconds or
more, the indicator switch(TFN switch) is ON .
Short in transfer neutral position switch signal circuit
P1783 (2-trip detection logic)
Transfer neutral position switch
(a) Vehicle speed: 25 km/h (16 mph) or more
ECM
(b) Transfer shift position is H

3 Check combination meter (See page BE-45 ).

NG Repair or replace the combination meter.

OK

4 Check voltage between terminal TFN of ECM and body ground.

PREPARATION:
ON
TFN Remove the ECM with connectors still connected.
CHECK:
Turn the ignition switch ON, measure voltage between terminal
TFN of ECM and body ground when transfer shift lever is shifted
to the following position.
OK:
Transfer shift position Voltage (V)
D11997
N Below 1.5
Except N 9 - 14

OK Proceed to next circuit inspection shown on

problem symptom chart (See page DI-175 ).

NG

5 Check for open or short circuit in harness and connector between transfer neu-
tral position switch and ECM ( See page IN-28 ).

NG Repair or replace harness or connector.

OK

Check and replace ECM.
