MALFUNCTION (ATNE)—
DTC DETECTING CONDITION:

Two consecutive trips with fault
TROUBLE SYMPTOM:

No lock-up (after engine warm-up)

AT diagnostic indicator light (AT OIL TEMP indicator
light) remains on when vehicle speed is“0”.
10AW1Check DTC P0725 on display.
Check engine speed input signal circuit.
CAUTION:
After repair or replacement of faulty parts, conduct
CLEAR MEMORY and INSPECTION MODES.

B: ABNORMAL DISPLAY ON AT OIL TEMP
INDICATOR
When any on-board diagnostic item is malfunctioning, the
display on the AT OIL TEMP indicator blinks immediately
after the engine starts.
The malfunctioning part or unit can be determined by a
trouble code during on-board diagnostic operation. Prob-
lems which occurred previously can also be identified
through the memory function.
If the AT OIL TEMP indicator does not show a problem
(although a problem is occurring), the problem can be
determined by checking the performance characteristics of
each sensor using the select monitor.
Indicator signal is as shown in the figure.
WARNING:
Warning can be noticed only when the engine is ini-
tially started.

H: TROUBLE CODE 23
—ENGINE SPEED SIGNAL—
DIAGNOSIS:
Engine speed input signal circuit is open or shorted.
TROUBLE SYMPTOM:

No lock-up (after engine warm-up)

AT OIL TEMP indicator remains on when vehicle speed
is“0”.
1. Check harness and connector between TCM
and ECM.
OK
Not OK
Repair or replace harness connectors.
2. Check input signal for TCM.
Not OK
OK

Repair TCM connector terminal poor contact.

Replace TCM.
Conduct diagnostics for ECM’s ignition system.
