Description

NOT P position switch circuit malfunction

Detection condition

• Start stop unit detects that the NOT P position switch is stuck on for 5 s or more for a continuous 5 times with the ignition switched ON (engine off or on).

Fail-safe

• Perform the NOT P position switch control in a position other than P.

Possible cause

• Selector lever component connector or terminal malfunction

• NOT P position switch malfunction

• Start stop unit connector or terminal malfunction

• Short to ground in wiring harness between start stop unit terminal 1J and selector lever component terminal B

• Start stop unit malfunction

Step

Inspection

Action

1

• Switch the ignition off.

• Disconnect the negative battery cable.

  (See NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLE DISCONNECTION/CONNECTION.)

• Disconnect the selector lever component connector.

• Inspect the connector engagement and connection condition and inspect the terminals for damage, deformation, corrosion, or disconnection.

• Is the connector normal?

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

Repair or replace the connector, then go to Step 5.

2

• Inspect the NOT P position switch.

  (See NOT P POSITION SWITCH INSPECTION.)

• Is the NOT P position switch normal?

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

Replace the selector lever component, then go to Step 5.

(See AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SHIFT MECHANISM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)

3

• Disconnect the start stop unit connector.

• Inspect the connector engagement and connection condition and inspect the terminals for damage, deformation, corrosion, or disconnection.

• Is the connector normal?

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

Repair or replace the connector, then go to Step 5.

4

• Verify that the selector lever component and start stop unit connectors are disconnected.

• Inspect for continuity between selector lever component terminal B (wiring harness-side) and body ground.

• Is there continuity?

Yes

Refer to the wiring diagram and verify whether or not there is a common connector between start stop unit terminal 1J and selector lever component terminal B.

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 the next step.

No

Go to the next step.

5

• Always reconnect all disconnected connectors.

• Connect the negative battery cable.

  (See NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLE DISCONNECTION/CONNECTION.)

• Clear the DTC for the start stop unit using the M-MDS.

  (See CLEARING DTC [START STOP UNIT].)

• Switch the ignition ON (engine off).

• Perform the following work 5 times or more.

• Operate the selector lever to other than P position and hold for 5 s or more.

• Operate the selector lever to P position and hold for 5 s or more.

• Operate the selector lever to other than P position.

• Retrieve the start stop unit DTCs using the M-MDS.

  (See DTC INSPECTION [START STOP UNIT].)

• Is the same DTC displayed?

Yes

Repeat the inspection from Step 1.

• If the malfunction recurs, replace the start stop unit.

  (See START STOP UNIT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)

Go to the next step.

No

Go to the next step.

6

• Are any other DTCs displayed?

Yes

Repair or replace the malfunctioning part according to the applicable DTC troubleshooting.

(See DTC TABLE [START STOP UNIT].)

No

DTC troubleshooting completed.
