1. CHECK D RANGE SWITCH
With CONSULT-II
1. With data monitor, check that “D RANGE SW” operates normally.
OK or NG
OK >> Replace ICC unit and erase DTC. Refer to ACS-59, "ICC Unit" . Perform ICC system running
test, and then perform self-diagnosis of ICC system again.
NG >> GO TO 2.
2. CHECK CAN COMMUNICATION
With CONSULT-II
1. With CONSULT-II self-diagnosis, check “CAN COMM CIRCUIT”.
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 3.
NG >> Refer to ACS-38, "
DTC 20 CAN COMM CIRCUIT" .
3. CHECK D RANGE SWITCH
1. With TCM data monitor, check that “D” position switch operates normally.
OK or NG
OK >> Replace ICC unit. Refer to ACS-59, "ICC Unit" . Perform ICC system running test, and then per-
form self-diagnosis of ICC system again.
NG >> After repairing or replacing malfunctioning part. Perform ICC system running test, and then per-
form self-diagnosis of ICC system again.
Symptom 5: Chime Does Not SoundEKS007XW
The chime may not sound occasionally in the following cases even if the distance from the vehicle ahead is
short:

When the speed difference from that of the vehicle ahead is small (both vehicles driving at similar speed).

When the vehicle ahead drives at faster speed (the actual distance is increasing).

When depressing the accelerator.

Chime does not sound when the vehicle is not driving.

Chime does not sound when the system does not detect any vehicle ahead. (Diagnose the conditions
under which the system is detecting the vehicle ahead and when the system is malfunctioning. If there is
any malfunction in detecting the vehicle ahead, refer to ACS-56, "
Symptom 7: The ICC System Frequently
Cannot Detect the Vehicle Ahead/The Detection Zone is Short" .)
1. CHECK ICC WARNING CHIME
With CONSULT-II
1. With active test, check that ICC warning chime operates normally.
OK or NG
OK >> Determine preceding vehicle detection status when malfunction occurred. If chime should have
sounded replace ICC unit. Refer to ACS-59, "
ICC Unit" . Perform ICC system running test, and
then perform self-diagnosis of ICC system again.
NG >> GO TO 2.

A/T FLUID

6. Make the fluid temperature approximately 65°C (149°F).
NOTE:
Fluid level will be greatly affected by temperature as shown in figure. Therefore, be certain to per-
form operation while checking data with CONSULT-II.
a. Connect CONSULT-II to data link connector.
b. Select “MAIN SIGNALS” in “DATA MONITOR” mode for “A/T” with CONSULT-II.
c. Read out the value of “ATF TEMP 1”.
7. Re-check fluid level at fluid temperatures of approximately 65°C (149°F) using “HOT” range on A/T fluid
level gauge.
CAUTION:

When wiping away the fluid level gauge, always use lint-free paper, not a cloth one.

To check fluid level, insert the ATF level gauge until the
cap contacts the end of the charging pipe, with the gauge
reversed from the normal attachment conditions as
shown.
8. Check fluid condition.

If fluid is very dark or smells burned, refer to check operation
of A/T. Flush cooling system after repair of A/T.

If ATF contains frictional material (clutches, bands, etc.),
replace radiator and flush cooler line using cleaning solvent
and compressed air after repair of A/T. Refer to CO-10,
"RADIATOR" and AT - 1 5 , "A/T Fluid Cooler Cleaning" .
9. Install the removed ATF level gauge into the fluid charging pipe.

How To Perform Trouble Diagnosis For Quick and Accurate RepairUCS002CT
INTRODUCTION
The TCM receives a signal from the vehicle speed sensor, accelerator pedal position sensor (throttle position
sensor) or PNP switch and provides shift control or lock-up control via A/T solenoid valves.
The TCM also communicates with the ECM by means of a signal
sent from sensing elements used with the OBD-related parts of the
A/T system for malfunction-diagnostic purposes. The TCM is capa-
ble of diagnosing malfunctioning parts while the ECM can store mal-
functions in its memory.
Input and output signals must always be correct and stable in the
operation of the A/T system. The A/T system must be in good oper-
ating condition and be free of valve seizure, solenoid valve malfunc-
tion, etc.
It is much more difficult to diagnose a error that occurs intermittently
rather than continuously. Most intermittent errors are caused by poor
electric connections or improper wiring. In this case, careful check-
ing of suspected circuits may help prevent the replacement of good
parts.
A visual check only may not find the cause of the errors. A road test
with CONSULT-II (or GST) or a circuit tester connected should be
performed. Follow the AT-46, "
WORK FLOW" .
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 errors, especially
intermittent ones. Find out what symptoms are present and under
what conditions they occur. A “Diagnostic Worksheet” as shown on
the example (Refer to AT- 4 7
) should be used.
Start your diagnosis by looking for “conventional” errors first. This will
help troubleshoot driveability errors on an electronically controlled
engine vehicle.
Also check related Service bulletins.

DTC P0615 START SIGNAL CIRCUITPFP:25230
DescriptionUCS002DE

TCM controls park/neutral (PNP) relay (starter relay) in IPDM E/R.

TCM switches PNP relay “ON” at “P” or “N” position and allows to crank engine.

Then it prohibits cranking other than at “P” or “N” position.
CONSULT-II Reference ValueUCS002DF
On Board Diagnosis LogicUCS002DG

This is not an OBD-II self-diagnostic item.

Diagnostic trouble code “STARTER RELAY/CIRC” with CONSULT-II is detected when detects as irregular
when park/neutral (PNP) relay (starter relay) is switched “ON” other than at “P” or “N” position. (Or when
switched “OFF” at “P” or “N” position).
Possible CauseUCS002D H

Harness or connectors
[The park/neutral position (PNP) relay (starter relay) and TCM circuit is open or shorted.]

Park/neutral position (PNP) relay (starter relay)
DTC Confirmation ProcedureUCS002DI
NOTE:
If “DTC Confirmation Procedure” has been previously performed, always turn ignition switch “OFF”
and wait at least 10 seconds before performing the next test.
After the repair, perform the following procedure to confirm the malfunction is eliminated.
WITH CONSULT-II
1. Turn ignition switch “ON”. (Do not start engine.)
2. Select “DATA MONITOR” mode for “A/T” with CONSULT-II.
3. Start engine.
4. Drive vehicle for at least 2 consecutive seconds.
5. If DTC is detected, go to AT - 1 0 6 , "
Diagnostic Procedure" .
