DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

Transfer Box Electrical Components

Ratio control motor

The ratio control motor is located on the rear casing of
the transfer box and secured with four bolts. The
motor comprises a conventional single speed
permanent magnet type motor. The motor spindle has
a worm which engages with a worm wheel in a
housing at the end of the motor. The worm wheel is
attached to the spindle of the selector interlock spool
inside the transfer box.

The worm wheel also drives a motor encoder which
comprises four position switches. The transfer box
ECU provides a 5 V signal to each switch and
interprets the transfer box range by monitoring the
condition of each switch.

The transfer box ECU reads the motor position in the
form of a binary code with each switch either open or
closed circuit. The ECU measures between the
switches and an encoder ground on connector pin 19.

By using the combinations of the switches, the
transfer box ECU can calculate the transfer box
position and how the motor should operate to select
the desired range. If the transfer box should move to a
position outside the normal condition, i.e. left of high
range, the ECU can move the motor to the correct
position.

The table below shows the motor switch states and
the corresponding motor position for each state.

Speed sensor

The speed sensor is located in the rear casing and
secured with a screw. A toothed reluctor ring is
integrated on the rear output shaft. The inductive
speed sensor senses the reluctor ring and produces a
sine wave, impulse type signal as each tooth on the
reluctor ring passes the sensor.

The transfer box ECU processes the signal from the
speed sensor and compares this to a stored speed
value in the memory to determine if a range change is
allowed.

NOTE: The speed sensor is dedicated to
the transfer box ECU to determine if a
range change can be permitted.
