SH-AWD® Control Unit Initialization
Whenever the SH-AWD control unit is replaced, it must be initialized.
Scheme 10
- With the ignition switch in LOCK (0), connect the HDS to the data link connector (DLC) (A) behind the driver's dashboard lower cover.
- Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
- Make sure the HDS communicates with the vehicle and the SH-AWD control unit. If it does not, go to the DLC circuit troubleshooting (see «DLC CIRCUIT TROUBLESHOOTING»(/acura/mdx/ii-2010-2013/remont/testing-diagnostics/#pgm-fi-system__dlc-circuit-troubleshooting) ).
- 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.
