Inspection Procedure

HINT: 

Using the Techstream to perform Active Test allows relays, VSVs, actuators and other items to be operated without removing any parts. This non-intrusive functional inspection can be very useful because intermittent operation may be discovered before parts or wiring is disturbed. Performing Active Test early in troubleshooting is one way to save diagnostic time. Data List information can be displayed while performing Active Test.

1. PERFORM ACTIVE TEST 
   1. Warm up the engine.
   2. Turn the ignition switch off.
   3. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
   4. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
   5. Turn on the Techstream.
   6. Select the item "Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Active Test / Shift Status".
   7. According to the display on the tester, perform the "Active Test".

      HINT: 

      While driving, the shift position can be forcibly changed with the Techstream.

      Comparing the shift position commanded by the Active Test with the actual shift position enables you to confirm the problem. Refer to FAIL-SAFE CHART .

      Tester Display	Test Part	Control Range	Diagnostic Note
      Control the Shift Position	[Test Details] Operate the shift solenoid valve and set each shift position by yourself. [Vehicle Condition] IDL: ON Less than 50 km/h (31 mph) [Others] Press "→" button: Shift up Press "←" button: Shift down	1st/2nd/3rd/4th/5th	Possible to check the operation of the shift solenoid valves.

      HINT: 

      • This test can be conducted when the vehicle speed is 50 km/h (31 mph) or less.
      • The shift position commanded by the ECM is shown in the Data List / Shift Status display on the Techstream.
