SHIFT POINT IS HIGH OR LOW - DESCRIPTION AND POSSIBLE CAUSES

11 Shift point is high or low
DESCRIPTION 
  • Shift point considerably different from automatic shift diagram.
  • Shift delays when accelerating.
  • Shift occurs quickly when accelerating and engine speed does not increase.
POSSIBLE CAUSE 
  • If the transaxle does not shift abnormally, there is a malfunction of input signal to TP sensor, input/turbine speed sensor, or VSS.
  • If engine speed is high or low regardless that shifting is normal, inspect tachometer.
  • Verify that output signal of TP sensor changes linearly.
    NOTE:
    • Before following troubleshooting steps, make sure that Automatic Transaxle On-Board Diagnostic and Automatic Transaxle Basic Inspection are conducted.
