Diagnostic Procedure

With CONSULT-II 

1. Start engine.
2. Select "ECU INPUT SIGNALS" in "DATA MONITOR" mode for "TRANSMISSION" with CONSULT-II.
3. Start vehicle and read out the value of "SEC HYDR SEN".

5. CHECK DTC 

   Perform "DTC Confirmation Procedure". Refer to "DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE ".

   OK or NG 

   OK: INSPECTION END 

   NG: GO TO  6.

6. CHECK TCM 
   1. Check TCM input/output signals. Refer to "TCM INPUT/OUTPUT SIGNAL REFERENCE VALUES ".
   2. If NG, re-check TCM pin terminals for damage or loose connection with harness connector.

   OK or NG 

   OK: Replace the transaxle assembly. Refer to "REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION ".

   NG: Repair or replace damaged parts.
