Diagnosis System (A140E)
DESCRIPTION
1. A self±diagnosis function is built into the electrical control system.
Warning is indicated by the overdrive OFF indicator.
HINT: Warning and diagnostic codes can be read only when
the overdrive switch is ON. If OFF, the overdrive OFF
indicator is lit continuously and will not blink.
(a) If a malfunction occurs within the speed sensors (No.
1 or 2) or solenoids (No. 1 or 2), the overdrive OFF
light will blink to. warn the driver. .
However, there will be no warning of a malfunction with
lock±up solenoid.
(b) The diagnostic code can be read by the number of blinks of
the overdrive OFF indicator when terminals
Tt and E1 are short±circuited. (See page AT±17)
tc) The throttle position sensor or brake signal are not indi-
cated, but inspection can be made by checking the voltage at
terminal Tt of the check connector (diagnosis).
(d) The signals to each gear can be checked by measuring the
voltage at terminal Tt of the check connector while driving.
2. The diagnostic (malfunction) code is retained in memory by the
CPU and due to back±up voltage, is not canceled out when the
engine is turned off. Consequently, after repair, it is necessary
to turn the ignition switch off and remove the fuse EFI (15A) or
disconnect the ECT computer connector to cancel out the diag-
nostic (malfunction)
code. (See page AT±18)
HINT:
wLow battery voltage will cause faulty operation of the diag-
nosis system. Therefore, always check the battery first.
w Use a voltmeter and ohmmeter that have an impedance
of at least 10 k 11 IV.
CHECK O/D OFF INDICATOR LIGHT
1. Turn the ignition switch ON.
2. The O/D OFF light will come on when the O/D switch is
placed at OFF.
3. When the O/D switch is set to ON, the O/D OFF light
should go out.
If the O/D OFF light flashes when the O/D switch is set
to ON, the electronic control system is faulty.

wIn the event of a malfunction, the fight will blink once every
0.5 seconds. The number of blinks will equal the first num-
ber and, after 1.5 seconds pause, the second number of the
two digit diagnostic code. If there are two or more codes,
there will be a 2.5 seconds pause between each.
HINT: In the event of several trouble codes occurring
simultaneously, indication will begin from the smaller
value and continue to the larger.
4. REMOVE SST
SST 09843±18020
READ DIAGNOSTIC CODE
1. TURN IGNITION SWITCH AND O/D SWITCH TO ON
Do not start the engine.
HINT: Warning and diagnostic codes can be read only
when the overdrive switch is ON. If OFF, the overdrive OFF
light will light continuously and will not blink.
2. SHORT ECT TERMINAL CIRCUIT OF CHECK
CONNECTOR
Using a SST, short terminals Tt and E1 of the check
connector.
SST 09843±18020
(Diagnostic Code Indication)
wIf the system is operating normally, the light will
blink once every 0.25 seconds. 3. READ DIAGNOSTIC CODE
Read the diagnostic code as indicated by the number
of times the O/D OFF indicator flashes.
