WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2015 Lexus IS 250 and 2014 Lexus IS 250. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- INSPECT TRANSMISSION WIRE (SHIFT SOLENOID VALVE S2)
- Disconnect the transmission wire connector from the transmission.
*a Component without harness connected
(Transmission Wire) - Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition 15 (S2) - Body ground 20°C (68°F) 11 to 15 Ω Result
Proceed to OK NG
Result:
NG
See step 3
Result:
OK
See step 2
- Disconnect the transmission wire connector from the transmission.
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (TRANSMISSION WIRE - ECM)
- Connect the transmission connector to the transmission.
- Disconnect the connector from the ECM.
*a Rear view of wire harness connector
(to ECM) - Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
