Diagnostic procedure

STEP

INSPECTION

ACTION

1

RECORD VEHICLE STATUS WHEN DTC WAS DETECTED TO UTILIZE WITH REPEATABILITY VERIFICATION

NOTE:

  • Recording can be facilitated using the screen capture of the PC function.

  • Record the freeze frame data/snap shot data.

Go to the next step.

2

VERIFY RELATED REPAIR INFORMATION AVAILABILITY

  • Verify related Service Bulletins and/or on-line repair information availability.

  • Is any related repair information available?

Yes

Perform repair or diagnosis according to the available repair information.

  • If the vehicle is not repaired, go to the next step.

No

Go to the next step.

3

INSPECT TCM CONNECTOR FOR POOR CONNECTION

  • Switch the ignition off.

  • Disconnect the TCM connector.

  • Inspect for poor connection at TCM terminals 2R and 2E (such as damaged/pulled-out pins, corrosion).

  • Are terminals normal?

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

Repair or replace the connector and/or terminal, then go to Step 13.

4

INSPECT RESISTANCE OF LINE PRESSURE CONTROL SOLENOID CIRCUIT

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

Go to go to Step 7.

5

INSPECT LINE PRESSURE CONTROL SOLENOID CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO GROUND

  • Disconnect the coupler component connector.

  • Inspect for continuity between TCM terminals (wiring harness-side) and body ground.

    • Terminal 2R and body ground

    • Terminal 2E and body ground

  • Is there continuity?

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

Refer to the wiring diagram and verify whether or not there is a common connector between the following terminals:

  • Line pressure control solenoid terminal B—TCM terminal 2R

  • Line pressure control solenoid terminal A—TCM terminal 2E

    If there is a common connector:

  • Determine the malfunctioning part by inspecting the common connector and the terminal for corrosion, damage, or pin disconnection, and the common wiring harness for a short to ground.

  • Repair or replace the malfunctioning part.

    If there is no common connector:

  • Repair or replace the wiring harness which has a short to ground.

Go to Step 13.

6

INSPECT LINE PRESSURE CONTROL SOLENOID CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO GROUND

  • Inspect for continuity between coupler component terminals (wiring harness-side) and body ground.

    • Terminal J and body ground

    • Terminal I and body ground

  • Is there continuity?

Yes

Go to go to Step 13.

No

Repair or replace the coupler component, then go to the next step.

7

INSPECT COUPLER COMPONENT CONNECTOR FOR POOR CONNECTION

  • Switch the ignition off.

  • Disconnect the coupler component connector.

  • Inspect for poor connection at coupler component terminals J and I (such as damaged/pulled-out pins, corrosion).

  • Are terminals normal?

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

Repair or replace the connector and/or terminal, then go to Step 13.

8

INSPECT RESISTANCE OF LINE PRESSURE CONTROL SOLENOID CIRCUIT

  • Inspect the resistance between coupler component (transmission case side) terminals J and I.

  • Is the resistance within 5.0—5.6 ohms?

    (See SOLENOID VALVE INSPECTION [SJ6A-EL].)

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

Go to Step 10.

9

INSPECT LINE PRESSURE CONTROL SOLENOID CIRCUIT FOR OPEN CIRCUIT

  • Inspect for continuity between TCM terminals and coupler component terminals (wiring harness-side).

    • Terminal 2R and terminal J

    • Terminal 2E and terminal I

  • Is there continuity?

Yes

Go to Step 13.

No

Refer to the wiring diagram and verify whether or not there is a common connector between the following terminals:

  • TCM terminal 2R—Coupler component terminal J

  • TCM terminal 2E—Coupler component terminal I

    If there is a common connector:

  • Determine the malfunctioning part by inspecting the common connector and the terminal for corrosion, damage, or pin disconnection, and the common wiring harness for an open circuit.

  • Repair or replace the malfunctioning part.

    If there is no common connector:

  • Repair or replace the wiring harness which has an open circuit.

Go to Step 13.

10

INSPECT LINE PRESSURE CONTROL SOLENOID CONNECTOR FOR POOR CONNECTION

  • Disconnect the line pressure control solenoid connector.

  • Inspect for poor connection at line pressure control solenoid terminals A and B (such as damaged/pulled-out pins, corrosion).

  • Are terminals normal?

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

Repair or replace the connector and/or terminal, then go to Step 13.

11

INSPECT LINE PRESSURE CONTROL SOLENOID

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

Replace the control valve body, then go to Step 13.

(See CONTROL VALVE BODY REMOVAL [SJ6A-EL].)

(See CONTROL VALVE BODY INSTALLATION [SJ6A-EL].)

12

INSPECT LINE PRESSURE CONTROL SOLENOID CIRCUIT FOR OPEN CIRCUIT

  • Inspect for continuity between coupler component terminals and line pressure control solenoid terminals (wiring harness-side).

    • Terminal J and terminal B

    • Terminal I and terminal A

  • Is there continuity?

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

Repair or replace the coupler component, then go to the next step.

13

VERIFY SAME DTC IS NOT PRESENT

Yes

Replace the TCM, then go to the next step.

(See TCM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [SJ6A-EL].)

No

Go to the next step.

14

VERIFY DTC TROUBLESHOOTING COMPLETED

Yes

Go to the applicable DTC inspection.

(See ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM DTC TABLE [TCM (SJ6A-EL)].)

No

DTC troubleshooting completed.
