CHECK TERMINAL TT OUTPUT
VOLTAGE
When a voltmeter is connected to the DLC2, the following
items can be checked:
1. Throttle position sensor signal
2. Brake signal
3. Shift position signal
1. VOLTMETER CONNECTION
Connect the positive (+) probe of the voltmeter to terminal TT
and the negative (±) probe to terminal E1 of the DLC2.
HINT: If a voltmeter with small internal resistance is used, the
correct voltage will not be indicated, so use a voltmeter with
an internal resistance of at least 10 k/V.
2. TURN IGNITION SWITCH TO ON (DO NOT START THE
ENGINE)
3. CHECK THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR SIGNAL
Check if the voltage changes from approx. 0 V to approx. 8
V when the accelerator pedal is gradually depressed from the
fully closed position.
4. CHECK BRAKE SIGNAL (LOCK±UP CUT SIGNAL)
(a) Open the throttle valve fully to apply approx. 8 V to terminal
TT.
(b) In this condition, check terminal TT voltage when the brake
pedal is depressed and released.
TT terminal voltage:
0 V (When brake pedal is depressed)
8 V (When brake pedal is released)
5. START ENGINE
6. CHECK SHIFT POSITION SIGNAL
(VEHICLE SPEED ABOVE 9 km/h, 6 mph)
Check up±shifting together with terminal TT voltage.
HINT: Check for light shocks from up±shifting and for
changes in the tachometer.

*1 ªº mark means ºO/D OFFº indicator light blinks once every 2 seconds.
ºXº mark means ºO/D OFFº indicator light never blinks.
*
2ªº marks means the ECM memorizes the malfunction code if the ECM detects the diagnostic trouble code
detection condition.
*
3 This indicates items for which º2 trip detection logicº is used. With this logic, when a logic malfunction is
first detected, the malfunction is temporarily stored in the ECM memory. If the same case is detected again
during the second drive test, this second detection causes the O/D OFF Indicator Light to blink. The 2 trip
repeats the same mode twice. (However, the IG switch must be turned OFF between the 1st trip and 2nd
trip.)
HINT:
wIf the malfunction returns to normal while a malfunction warning is being output, the O/D OFF indicator
light stops blinking and goes off.
However, the diagnostic trouble code is retained in memory until it is cleared from memory.
wIf the diagnosis system outputs a diagnostic trouble code even though the O/D OFF indicator was not
blinking, there is intermittent trouble. Check all the connections in the circuits corresponding to that
code.
wIf the vehicle speed sensors No.1 and No.2 happen to fail simultaneously, the ECM will neither alert
the driver by blinking the O/D OFF indicator nor record any diagnostic trouble code. It will, however,
decide that the vehicle can be driven only in 1st and none of the other gears, so shifting upward will
then be prohibited.
wCodes 46, 62, 63 and 64 are limited to short or open circuits in the electrical system comprised of the
solenoids, wire harnesses, and connectors. The ECM is unable to detect mechanical trouble (sticking,
for example) in the solenoid valves. AT1±54
