    2. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      8 (S1) - Body ground 20°C (68°F) 11 to 15 Ω
      TEXT IN ILLUSTRATION

      *a Component without harness connected
      (Transmission Wire)

    Result: 

    NG 

    See step  3

    Result: 

    OK 

    See step  2

  2. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (TRANSMISSION WIRE - ECM) 
    1. Disconnect the B38 ECM connector.

    2. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      B38-25 (S1) - Body ground 20°C (68°F) 11 to 15 Ω
      TEXT IN ILLUSTRATION

      *a Rear view of wire harness connector
      (to ECM)

    Result: 

    OK 

    REPLACE ECM. Refer to  REMOVAL [08/2015 - ] 

    Result: 

    NG 

    REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 

  3. INSPECT SHIFT SOLENOID VALVE S1 
    1. Remove shift solenoid valve S1.
      GTY702931Courtesy of © TOYOTA, LICENSE AGREEMENT TMS1002
    2. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      Shift solenoid valve S1 connector terminal - Shift solenoid valve S1 body 20°C (68°F) 11 to 15 Ω
    3. Apply 12 V battery voltage to the shift solenoid valve and check that the valve moves and makes an operating noise.

      OK

      Measurement Condition Specified Condition
      • Battery positive (+) → Shift solenoid valve S1 connector
      • Battery negative (-) → Shift solenoid valve S1 body
      Valve moves and makes operating noise
      TEXT IN ILLUSTRATION

      *a Component without harness connected
      (Shift Solenoid Valve S1)

    Result: 

    OK 

    REPAIR OR REPLACE TRANSMISSION WIRE. Refer to  REMOVAL [08/2015 - ] 

    Result: 

    NG 

    REPLACE SHIFT SOLENOID VALVE S1. Refer to  PROCEDURE - Step 6
