xt6 trans wiring


Recommended Posts

just to be sure, there isn't any wiring at the trans for the diff lock, so do you mean wiring for the trans or wiring for the diff lock controls? i think that's what you mean?

 

there's wiring for the solenoids that control vacuum flow to the actuator which essentially just pushes and pulls the mechanical linkage on the side of the trans.

 

do you have the actuator? (large round disc shaped gizmo).

 

as long as you have the large disc shaped actuator you just need to provide vacuum to that in order to activate the diff lock. you can literally pull any vacuum hose and attach it to that actuator to engage the diff lock. so - you just install a solenoid that is activated by your diff lock switch that essentially controls the vacuum to the actuator.

 

Subaru Xt factory service manuals are hosted in full for free, you can find the link at subaruxt.com.

 

i attached a pic from the FSM of the actuator, solenoid that controls it (which is what needs wired in to the switch), etc.
