   OK or NG 

   1. OK: GO TO  3.
   2. NG: GO TO 2.
2. DETECT MALFUNCTIONING ITEM 

   Check the following:

   • Harness for short or open between battery and TCM terminal 27
   • Harness for short or open between ignition switch and TCM terminals 1, 34, 38 and 39
   • 10A fuse [No. 19, located in the fuse block (J/B) or No. 48, located in the IPDM E/R]
   • Ignition switch. Refer to "POWER DISTRIBUTION ".
   • A/T PV IGN relay. Refer to "COMPONENT INSPECTION ".

   OK or NG 

   1. OK: GO TO 3.
   2. NG: Repair or replace damaged parts.
3. CHECK TCM GROUND CIRCUIT 
   1. Turn ignition switch "OFF".
   2. Disconnect TCM harness connector.

   3. Check continuity between TCM terminals 14 (B), 48 (B) and ground.

      Continuity should exist  .

      If OK, check harness for short to ground and short to power.

   OK or NG 

   1. OK: GO TO 4.
   2. NG: Repair open circuit or short to ground or short to power in harness or connectors.
4. CHECK DTC 

   Check again. Refer to "DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE ".

   OK or NG 

   1. OK: INSPECTION END 
   2. NG: GO TO 5.
5. CHECK TCM 

1. Check TCM input/output signal.
2. If NG, recheck TCM pin terminals for damage or loose connection with harness connector.

OK or NG 

1. OK: INSPECTION END 
2. NG: Repair or replace damaged parts.
