IntroductionNLAT0247The TCM receives a signal from the vehicle speed sensor, throttle
position sensor or PNP switch and provides shift control or lock-up
control via CVT solenoid valves.
Input and output signals must always be correct and stable in the
operation of the CVT system. The CVT system must be in good
operating condition and be free of valve seizure, solenoid valve
malfunction, etc.
It is much more difficult to diagnose a problem that occurs intermit-
tently rather than continuously. Most intermittent problems are
caused by poor electric connections or improper wiring. In this
case, careful checking of suspected circuits may help prevent the
replacement of good parts.
A visual check only, may not find the cause of the problems. A road
test with CONSULT-II or a circuit tester connected should be per-
formed. Follow the ªWork Flowº. Refer to AT-49.
Before undertaking actual checks, take a few minutes to talk with
a customer who approaches with a driveability complaint. The cus-
tomer can supply good information about such problems, espe-
cially intermittent ones. Find out what symptoms are present and
under what conditions they occur. A ªDiagnostic Worksheetº like the
example (AT-48) should be used.
Start your diagnosis by looking for ªconventionalº problems first.
This will help troubleshoot driveability problems on an electronically
controlled engine vehicle.
Also check related Service bulletins for information.

Diagnostic ProcedureNLAT0319SYMPTOM 1:
+Selector lever cannot be moved from ªPº position with key
in ON position and brake pedal applied.
+Selector lever can be moved from ªPº position with key in
ON position and brake pedal released.
+Selector lever can be moved from ªPº position when key
is removed from key cylinder.
SYMPTOM 2:
Ignition key cannot be removed when selector lever is set to
ªPº position. It can be removed when selector lever is set to
any position except ªPº.
1 CHECK KEY INTERLOCK CABLE

Control Cable AdjustmentNLAT0111Move selector lever from the ªPº position to the ªLº position. You
should be able to feel the detents in each position. If the detents
cannot be felt or if the pointer indicating the position is improperly
aligned, the control cable needs adjustment.
1. Place selector lever in ªPº position.
2. Loosen control cable lock nut and place manual shaft in ªPº
position.
CAUTION:
Turn wheels more than 1/4 rotations and apply the park lock.
3. Tighten control cable lock nut.
: 12 - 14 N´m (1.2 - 1.5 kg-m,9-10ft-lb)
4. Move selector lever from ªPº to ªLº position again. Make sure
that selector lever moves smoothly.
5. Apply grease to contacting areas of selector lever and control
cable. Install any part removed.
SAT659J
Park/Neutral Position (PNP) Switch AdjustmentNLAT01121. Remove control cable end from manual shaft.
2. Set manual shaft in ªNº position.
3. Loosen PNP switch fixing bolts.
4. Usea4mm(0.157 in) pin for this adjustment.
a. Insert the pin straight into the manual shaft adjustment hole.
b. Rotate PNP switch until the pin can also be inserted straight
into hole in PNP switch.
5. Tighten PNP switch fixing bolts.
: 4.9 - 6.8 N´m (0.5 - 0.7 kg-m, 44 - 60 in-lb)
6. Remove pin from adjustment hole after adjusting PNP switch.
7. Reinstall any part removed.
8. Adjust control cable. Refer to ªControl Cable Adjustmentº.
9. Check continuity of PNP switch. Refer to AT-72.
