TCM Self-diagnostic Procedure (No Tools)=NLAT0022S0703Preparation
1. Turn ignition switch to ªOFFº position.
2. If throttle opener is equipped, connect the handy type vacuum
pump to the throttle opener and apply vacuum þ25.3 kPa
(þ253 mbar, þ190 mmHg, þ7.48 inHg). (If throttle opener is not
equipped, skip this step.)
3. Disconnect the throttle position switch harness connector.
4. Turn ignition switch to ªONº position.
5. Check continuity between terminals 4 and 5 of the closed
throttle position switch.
Continuity should exist.
(If continuity does not exist, check throttle opener and
closed throttle position switch. Then increase vacuum
until closed throttle position switch shows continuity.)
6. Connect the throttle position switch harness connector.
7. Warm up the engine.
8. Turn the ignition switch from ON to OFF two more times, and
then turn to OFF.
9. In the ªPº position of the selector lever, turn the ignition switch
ON, and verify that the CVT warning lamp turns on for about
2 seconds.
10. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
11. Press the brake pedal, and shift the selector lever to the ªDº
position.
12. Turn the ignition switch ON.
13. Release the brake, and shift the selector lever to the ªLº posi-
tion.
14. Fully depress both brake and accelerator pedals all the way to
the floor. Without releasing the brake and accelerator pedals,
shift the selector lever to the ªDº position.
15. Read the display from the SPORT indicator lamp to complete
the diagnosis.
