•Cruise control module : O/D OFF command signal is output (if equipped).
•ECT : ECT < 30 °C (86 °F)
TROUBLESHOOTING
WARNING:
When performing a road test, select a place where there is no traffic or possibility of a traffic acci-
dent and very careful during testing to avoid occurrence of an accident.
Road test should be carried out with 2 person, a driver and tester, on a level road.
Step Action Yes No
1Was “AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION DIAG-
NOSTIC FLOW TABLE” performed?Go to Step 2. Go to “AUTOMATIC
TRANSMISSION DIAG-
NOSTIC FLOW TABLE” in
this section.
2 ECT check :
1) Warm up engine to normal operating tem-
perature.
2) Check ECT using scan tool.
Is ECT more than 30 °C (86 °F)?Go to Step 3. Faulty ECT sensor, its cir-
cuit or engine cooling sys-
tem.
If OK, substitute a known-
good PCM and recheck.
3 Perform running test under the following condi-
tions and check voltage between C51-1-2 termi-
nal of PCM coupler and ground, C51-1-1
terminal of PCM coupler and ground.
•O/D off switch OFF (“O/D OFF” lamp OFF).
•Normal mode in “D” range.
•Transfer “2H” position.
•Cruise control is not operated (if equipped).
•Drive vehicle with 4th gear condition refer-
ring to “Gear shift diagram” in this section.
Is each voltage about 0 V?Faulty shift solenoid valve,
its circuit or transmission“GRN” wire or “GRN/
RED” wire shorted to
power circuit.
If OK, go to Step 4.
4 O/D off switch signal inspection :
With ignition switch ON, check voltage between
E61-33 terminal of PCM coupler and ground.
“O/D” cut switch specification
“O/D” cut switch OFF : Battery voltage
“O/D” cut switch ON : 0 V
Is the result as specified?Go to Step 5. Faulty O/D off switch or its
circuit.
If OK, substitute a known-
good PCM and recheck.

dent and be very careful during testing to avoid occurrence of an accident.
Road test should be carried out with 2 persons, a driver and a tester, on a level road.
Step Action Yes No
1Was “A/T DIAGNOSTIC FLOW TABLE” in this section
performed?Go to Step 2. Go to “A/T DIAGNOS-
TIC FLOW TABLE” in
this section.
2 Do you have SUZUKI scan tool? Go to Step 3. Go to Step 4.
3 Check Transmission range switch (sensor) circuit for
operation.
Check by using SUZUKI scan tool :

Check for intermittent
referring to “INTER-
MITTENT AND POOR
CONNECTION” in
Section 0A.Go to Step 5.
4 Check Transmission range switch (sensor) circuit for
operation.
Check by not using SUZUKI scan tool :

C51-1-18, C51-1-19, C51-1-27 and C51-1-28
respectively with select lever shifted to each
range.
Taking terminal C51-1-28 as an example, is battery
voltage indicated only when select lever is shifted to
“2” range and 0 V for other ranges as shown in figure?
Check voltage at other terminals likewise, referring to
figure.
Are check results satisfactory?Intermittent trouble.
Check for intermittent
referring to “INTER-
MITTENT AND POOR
CONNECTION” in
Section 0A.Go to Step 5.
5 Check select cable for adjustment referring to
“SELECT CABLE ADJUSTMENT” in this section.
Is it adjusted correctly?Go to Step 6. Adjust.

4) Shift select lever to D range and start vehicle.
5) Keep vehicle speed at higher than 10 km/h (7 mile/h) with 1st gear in D range for 2 sec. or more.
6) Increase vehicle speed and keep it at higher than 20 km/h (13 mile/h) with 2nd gear in D range for 2 sec. or
more.
7) Increase vehicle speed and keep it at higher than 30 km/h (20 mile/h) with 3rd gear in D range for 2 sec. or
