WARNING:
For vehicles equipped with Supplemental Restraint (Air Bag) System:

Service on and around the air bag system components or wiring must be performed only by an autho-
rized SUZUKI dealer. Refer to ªAir Bag System Components and Wiring Location Viewº under ªGener-
al Descriptionº in air bag system section in order to confirm whether you are performing service on
or near the air bag system components or wiring. Please observe all WARNINGS and ªService Precau-
tionsº under ªOn-Vehicle Serviceº in air bag system section before performing service on or around
the air bag system components or wiring. Failure to follow WARNINGS could result in unintentional
activation of the system or could render the system inoperative. Either of these two conditions may
result in severe injury.

Technical service work must be started at least 90 seconds after the ignition switch is turned to the
ªLOCKº position and the negative cable is disconnected from the battery. Otherwise, the system may
be activated by reserve energy in the Sensing and Diagnostic Module (SDM).

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
This automatic transmission is a full automatic type with 3-speed plus overdrive (O / D).
The torque converter is a 3-element, 1-step and 2-phase type and is equipped with an electronically controlled
lock-up mechanism. The gear shift device consists of 3 sets of planetary gear units, 3 disc type clutches, 4 disc
type brakes and 3 one-way clutches. The gear shift is done by selecting one of 6 positions (ªPº, ªRº, ªNº, ªDº, ª2º
and ªLº) by means of the select lever installed on the floor. On the shift knob, there is an overdrive (O / D) cut switch
which allows shift-up to the overdrive mode (except at 4L) and shift-down from the overdrive mode. Also, by using
the P / N change switch located on the console box, it is possible to select the gear change timing of 2 modes, nor-
mal and power.

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION DIAGNOSIS
This vehicle is equipped with an electronic transmission control system, which control the automatic shift up and
shift down timing, TCC operation, etc. suitably to vehicle driving conditions.
PCM (ECM) has an On-Board Diagnosis system which detects a malfunction in this system and abnormality of
those parts that influence the engine exhaust emission.
When diagnosing a trouble in transmission including this system, be sure to have full understanding of the outline
of ªOn-board Diagnostic Systemº and each item in ªPrecaution in Diagnosing Troubleº and execute diagnosis ac-
cording to ªAUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION DIAGNOSTIC FLOW TABLEº given below to obtain correct result
smoothly.
NOTE:
There are two types of ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM de-
pending on vehicle specifications. The type of system for ve-
hicle being serviced can be identified by whether equipped
with monitor connector or not.

[For Vehicle with Monitor Connector]
ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM
For automatic transmission control system, PCM (ECM) has follow-
ing functions. Refer to Section 6 / 6-1 for details.

When the ignition switch is turned ON with the engine at a stop,
malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) turns ON to check the bulb of the
MIL.

When PCM detects a trouble in electronic shift control system, it
stores its trouble code in back-up memory in itself. (The memory
is kept as it is even if the trouble was only temporary and disap-
peared immediately. And it is not erased unless the power to PCM
is shut off for 30 seconds or longer.)

It is possible to communicate through DLC by using not only SU-
ZUKI scan tool (Tech-1) but also generic scan tool. (Diagnostic in-
formation can be accessed by using a scan tool.)

It is also possible to communicate by not using scan tool. PCM
indicates trouble area in memory by means of flashing of malfunc-
tion indicator lamp at the time of inspection (i.e. when diagnosis
switch terminal is grounded and ignition switch is turned ON).

IMMOBILIZER CONTROL SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED) 8G-5

With the diagnosis switch terminal of monitor coupler for
ECM / PCM not grounded, the ignition switch turned ON (but the en-
gine at stop) and regardless of the condition of the electronic fuel
injection system, ECM / PCM indicates whether a trouble has oc-
curred in the immobilizer control system or not by causing the mal-
function indicator lamp to flash or turn ON.
Malfunction indicator lamp is ON:
No trouble exists in the immobilizer control system.
Malfunction indicator lamp is flashing:
ECM / PCM or Immobilizer Control Module has detected some
trouble in the immobilizer control system.
NOTE:
As soon as the ignition switch is turned ON, ECM / PCM and Im-
mobilizer Control Module diagnose if a trouble has occurred
in the immobilizer control system. While the diagnosis is being
made, the malfunction indicator lamp stays ON and if the diag-
nosis result is ªabnormalº, it immediately changes to flashing
but if the result is ªnormalº, it remains ON. Diagnosis takes
about 3 seconds at maximum.

With the ignition switch turned ON (but the engine at stop) regard-
less of the condition of the electronic fuel injection system,
ECM / PCM indicates whether a trouble has occurred in the immobi-
lizer control system or not by causing the immobilizer indicator lamp
to flash or turn ON.
Immobilizer indicator lamp is ON:
No trouble exists in the immobilizer control system.
Immobilizer indicator lamp is flashing:
ECM / PCM or Immobilizer Control Module has detected some
trouble in the immobilizer control system.
NOTE:
As soon as the ignition switch is turned ON, ECM / PCM and Im-
mobilizer Control Module diagnose if a trouble has occurred
in the immobilizer control system. While the diagnosis is being
made, the Immobilizer indicator lamp stays ON and if the diag-
nosis result is ªabnormalº, it immediately changes to flashing
but if the result is ªnormalº, it remains ON. Diagnosis takes
about 3 seconds at maximum.
When ECM / PCM and Immobilizer Control Module detects a
trouble which has occurred in the above areas, it stores DTC corre-
sponding to the exact trouble area in ECM / PCM and Immobilizer
Control Module memory.
DTCs stored in memory of each controller (Immobilizer Control
Module and ECM / PCM) can be read by using the procedure de-
scribed in ªDIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE CHECK (IMMOBILIZ-
ER CONTROL MODULE)º and ªDIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE
CHECK (ECM / PCM)º in this section.

DIAGNOSIS
ECM / PCM and Immobilizer Control Module have on-board diag-
nostic system (a system self-diagnosis function) as described pre-
viously.
Investigate where the trouble is by referring to ªDiagnostic Flow
Tableº and ªDiagnostic Trouble Code Tableº on later pages.
PRECAUTIONS IN DIAGNOSING TROUBLES
[PRECAUTIONS IN IDENTIFYING DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE]
ECM / PCM


Before identifying diagnostic trouble code indicated by malfunc-
tion indicator lamp, don't disconnect couplers from ECM / PCM,
battery cable from battery, ECM / PCM ground wire harness from
engine.
Such disconnection will clear trouble codes for electronic fuel in-
jection system stored in memory of ECM / PCM.

If abnormality or malfunction lies in two or more areas, malfunc-
tion indicator lamp indicates applicable codes three times each.
And flashing of these codes is repeated as long as diagnosis ter-
minal is grounded and ignition switch is held at ON position.

When ECM / PCM detects a trouble in both electronic fuel injec-
tion system and immobilizer control system, malfunction indicator
lamp indicates trouble codes of both systems alternately while the
ignition switch is turned ON and the diagnosis terminal is
grounded.

Take a note of diagnostic trouble code indicated first.


Before identifying diagnostic trouble code indicated through Su-
zuki scan tool, don't disconnect couplers from ECM / PCM, bat-
tery cable from battery, ECM / PCM ground wire harness from en-
gine.
Such disconnection will clear trouble codes for electronic fuel in-
jection system stored in memory of ECM / PCM.

Take a note of diagnostic trouble code indicated first.
