Transmission Control Switch Circuit: Procedure
- INSPECT TRANSMISSION CONTROL SWITCH
- Disconnect the transmission control switch connector.
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition 6 (IG) - 13 (S) Shift lever in S, "+" or "-" Below 1 Ω 5 (SFTU) - 11 (E) Shift lever held in "+" (Up-shift) Below 1 Ω 4 (SFTD) - 11 (E) Shift lever held in "-" (Down-shift) Below 1 Ω 6 (IG) - 13 (S) Shift lever not in S, "+" or "-" 10 kΩ or higher 5 (SFTU) - 11 (E) Shift lever in S 10 kΩ or higher 4 (SFTD) - 11 (E) Shift lever in S 10 kΩ or higher TEXT IN ILLUSTRATION*a Component without harness connected
(Transmission Control Switch)
NG → See step 4
OK: Go to next step
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (TRANSMISSION CONTROL SWITCH - BATTERY AND BODY GROUND)
- Disconnect the transmission control switch connector.
- Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Voltage
Tester Connection Switch Condition Specified Condition C47-6 (IG) - Body ground Ignition switch ON 11 to 14 V C47-6 (IG) - Body ground Ignition switch off Below 1 V - Turn the ignition switch off.
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition C47-11 (E) - Body ground Always Below 1 Ω TEXT IN ILLUSTRATION*a Front view of wire harness connector
(to Transmission Control Switch)
NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK: Go to next step
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (TRANSMISSION CONTROL SWITCH - ECM)
- Disconnect the ECM connector.
- Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Voltage
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition A35-14 (S) - Body ground - Ignition switch ON
- Shift lever in S, "+" or "-"
11 to 14 V A35-14 (S) - Body ground - Ignition switch ON
- Shift lever not in S, "+" or "-"
Below 1 V - Turn the ignition switch off.
- Disconnect the spiral cable with sensor sub-assembly connector.
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition A35-16 (SFTU) - Body ground Shift lever held in "+" (Up-shift) Below 1 Ω A35-51 (SFTD) - Body ground Shift lever held in "-" (Down-shift) Below 1 Ω A35-16 (SFTU) - Body ground Shift lever in S 10 kΩ or higher A35-51 (SFTD) - Body ground Shift lever in S 10 kΩ or higher TEXT IN ILLUSTRATION*a Front view of wire harness connector
(to ECM)
NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK → See step 5
- REPLACE TRANSMISSION CONTROL SWITCH (SHIFT LOCK CONTROL UNIT ASSEMBLY). Refer to REMOVAL
- PROCEED TO NEXT SUSPECTED AREA SHOWN IN PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE. Refer to PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE
