INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:
Performing the ACTIVE TEST using the hand-held tester allows the relay, VSV, actuator and so on to oper-
ate without parts removal. Performing the ACTIVE TEST as the first step of troubleshooting is one method
to shorten labor time.
It is possible to display the DATA LIST during the ACTIVE TEST.
(a) Turn the ignition switch off.
(b) Connect the hand-held tester to the DLC3.
(c) Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
(d) Push the ºONº button of the hand-held tester.
(e) Select the item ºDIAGNOSIS/ENHANCED OBD II/ACTIVE TEST/SHIFTº.
(f) According to the display on tester, perform the ºACTIVE TESTº.
HINT:
While driving, the shift position can be forcibly changed with the hand-held tester.
Comparing the shift position commanded by the ACTIVE TEST with the actual shift position enables you
to confirm the problem (see page 05-1030).
ItemTest DetailsDiagnostic Note
SHIFT
[Test Details]
Operate the shift solenoid valve and set the each shift position by your-
self.
[Vehicle Condition]
Less than 50 km/h (31 mph)
[Others]
Press º"º button: Shift up
Press ºuº button: Shift down
Possible to check the operation of
the shift solenoid valves.
HINT:
This test can be conducted when the vehicle speed is 50 km/h (31 mph) or less.
The shift position commanded by the ECM is shown in the DATA LIST/SHIFT display on the hand-held
tester.
1 CHECK OTHER DTCS OUTPUT(IN ADDITION TO DTC P0796)
(a) Connect the OBD II scan tool or the hand-held tester to the DLC3.
(b) Turn the ignition switch to the ON position and push the OBD II scan tool or the hand-held tester main
switch ON.
(c) When you use hand-held tester:
Select the item ºDIAGNOSIS/ENHANCED OBD II/DTC INFO/CURRENT CODESº.
(d) Read the DTCs using the OBD II scan tool or the hand-held tester.

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Shifting from 1st to 5th is performed in combination with ºONº and ºOFFº operation of the shift solenoid valves
SL1, SL2, SL3, S4 and SR which is controlled by the ECM. If an open or short circuit occurs in either of the
shift solenoid valves, the ECM controls the remaining normal shift solenoid valve to allow the vehicle to be
operated smoothly (Fail safe function).
