Diagnostic Procedure

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.

STEP	INSPECTION		ACTION
1	VERIFY TIRE CONDITION Inspect the tire size and air pressure. Is the tire of specified size and air pressure?	Yes	Go to the next step.
1		No	Replace with a specified tire size or adjust the air pressure of each specified tire to the specified value.
2	INSPECT ABS WHEEL SPEED SENSOR SIGNAL Display the following DSC CM PIDs using the M-MDS. (See ON-BOARD DIAGNOSIS [DYNAMIC STABILITY CONTROL (DSC)] .) WSPD_LF WSPD_LR WSPD_RF WSPD_RR Are the monitoring values displayed uniformly while driving?	Yes	Go to the next step.
2		No	Perform the following inspections: ABS wheel-speed sensor installation inspection Is the ABS wheel-speed sensor installation normal? ABS sensor rotor installation inspection Is the ABS sensor rotor installed twisted? (may cause output of abnormal wave pattern at high speeds.) Are there missing teeth on the sensor rotor? If there is any malfunction, repair or replace the malfunctioning location.
3	INSPECT TCM FOR POOR GROUND Inspect for continuity between the TCM terminal A9 and battery negative terminal. Is there continuity?	Yes	Go to the next step.
3		No	Repair or replace ground circuit.
4	INSPECT SHIFT SOLENOIDS FOR MALFUNCTION Inspect following shift solenoids. Shift solenoid C (See SHIFT SOLENOID C INSPECTION .) Shift solenoid D (See SHIFT SOLENOID D INSPECTION .) Shift solenoid E (See SHIFT SOLENOID E INSPECTION .) Line pressure control solenoid (See LINE PRESSURE CONTROL SOLENOID INSPECTION .) TCC control solenoid (See TORQUE CONVERTER CLUTCH (TCC) CONTROL SOLENOID INSPECTION .) Shift solenoid F (See SHIFT SOLENOID F INSPECTION .) Are they normal?	Yes	Go to the next step.
4		No	Inspect the coupler component. If normal, replace the control valve body. (See CONTROL VALVE BODY REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .)
5	VERIFY IF MALFUNCTION CAUSE IS TCM TERMINAL OR TRANSAXLE Inspect the ATF condition. (See AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE FLUID (ATF) INSPECTION .) Is the ATF condition normal?	Yes	Inspect the TCM terminal for bend, damage, corrosion or poor contact.
5		No	Replace the transaxle. (See AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .)
6	Verify test results. If normal, return to the diagnostic index to service any additional symptoms. If malfunction remains, inspect the related Service Bulletins and/or On-line Repair Information and perform repair or diagnosis. If the vehicle is repaired, troubleshooting completed. If the vehicle is not repaired or additional diagnostic information is not available, replace the TCM.
