Rear Defroster Inspection Mode

To prepare for a possible gap in the final gear ratio between the front and rear wheels, which may occur inadvertently after replacement of the transmission assembly or rear differential assembly in the market, a new on-vehicle inspection mode for the front and rear wheel final gear ratios is adopted. Once a non-proper final gear ratio is detected, the Lineartronic™ controls the vehicle in the FF mode and makes the AWD light flash to alert the driver until it recognizes that a proper part is installed.
