Signal description, Transmission Control Module (TCM)
All values contained below are between the terminal in column 1 and #A53 (signal ground), unless otherwise indicated in brackets.
NOTE:
It is important to connect the breakout box and check ground terminals before taking readings.
| U = | DC voltage in volts (V) | UAC = | AC voltage in volts (V) |
| Ubat = | battery voltage | f = | frequency in Hertz (Hz) |
| Ulow = | voltage approximately 0 V | %duty = | duty cycle (pulse ratio) as a percentage (%) |
| t = | time in milliseconds (ms) |
