Diagnostic Item 18: Diagnose when the scan tool cannot receive the data sent by transaxle control module (TCM): Diagnosis

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2014 Mitsubishi Outlander. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. STEP 1. Connector check: joint connector (CAN1) and TCM connector 
    CAUTION: The strand end of the twist wire should be within 10 cm from the connector. For details refer to SERVICE PRECAUTIONS  .

    When checking the joint connector, ensure that its wiring harness side and its short pins are not damaged.

    Q: Is the check result normal? 

    1. YES:  Go to Step 2.
    2. NO:  Repair the defective connector. Replace the joint connector as necessary.
  2. STEP 2. Resistance measurement at joint connector (CAN1) and TCM connector. 
    CAUTION: A digital multimeter should be used. For details refer to SERVICE PRECAUTIONS  .
    CAUTION: The test wiring harness should be used. For details refer to SERVICE PRECAUTIONS  .
    1. Disconnect joint connector (CAN1) and the TCM connector, and measure at the wiring harness side.
    2. Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK (OFF) position.
      CAUTION: When measuring the resistance, disconnect the negative battery terminal. For details refer to SERVICE PRECAUTIONS  .
    3. Ensure that the negative battery terminal is disconnected.
    4. Continuity between joint connector (CAN1) terminal No.6 and TCM connector terminal No.4 < CVT >

      OK: Continuity (2 ohms or less) 

    5. Continuity between joint connector (CAN1) terminal No.17 and TCM connector terminal No.5 < CVT >

      OK: Continuity (2 ohms or less) 

    6. Continuity between joint connector (CAN1) terminal No.6 and TCM connector terminal No.10 < A/T >

      OK: Continuity (2 ohms or less) 

    7. Continuity between joint connector (CAN1) terminal No.17 and TCM connector terminal No.11 < A/T >

      OK: Continuity (2 ohms or less) 

    Q: Is the check result normal? 

    1. YES:  < All the resistances measure 2 ohms or less > Power supply to the TCM may be suspected. Diagnose the CVT or A/T. Refer to SYMPTOM PROCEDURES (CVT) or DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE CHART (A/T).
    2. NO:  < Either or all of the resistances measure more than 2 ohms > Repair the wiring harness between joint connector (CAN1) and the TCM connector.
