SHIFT POINT IS HIGH OR LOW DESCRIPTION AND POSSIBLE CAUSE

13 Shift point is high or low
DESCRIPTION 
  • Shift point is considerably different from automatic shift diagram.
  • Shift delays when accelerating.
  • Shift occurs suddenly when accelerating and engine speed does not increase.
POSSIBLE CAUSE 
  • If the transmission shifts normally, there is a malfunction of the input signal to the TP sensor or VSS.
  • If the engine speed is high or low regardless normal shifting, inspect the tachometer.
  • Verify that the output signal of the TP sensor changes linearly.
