HARNESS INSPECTION
Check for an open or short circuit in the harness b etween the terminals which were defective according
to the connector measurements. Carry out this inspe ction while referring to Volume 2 Electrical manual.
Here, “Check harness between power supply and termi nal xx” also includes checking for blown fuses.
For inspection service points when there is a blown fuse, refer to “Inspection Service Points for a Blown
Fuse”.
MEASURES TO TAKE AFTER REPLACING THE ECU
If the trouble symptoms have not disappeared even a fter replacing the ECU, repeat the inspection procedure
from the beginning.

In such cases, the cause is probably al
Malfunction of valve body
defective valve body, or it is a phenomenon related control and is not an abnormality.
Refer to Automatic Transaxle Overhaul
Does fuzzy shifting occur normally? No problem because it is a phenomenon that appears due to
Nofactors associated with control.
YesDeviations at some shift points occurs only when the ATF is cold or less].
NoYes Deviations at some shift hot or more].
Valve body disassembly, cleaning and reassembly
Pay particular attention to loosening of bolts, and to damage,
If it is considered that the damage or chipping can not be
repaired, replace the valve body assembly.
