If the air intake duct is removed from the throttle body take great care to keep fingers away
from the throttle plate. The drive motor has very high torque and is capable of random move-
ment at any time. Do not under any circumstances activate the throttle plate by hand.
When removing the throttle body from the intake manifold disconnect the wiring first. During
replacement connect the wiring last.
Do not activate the throttle body using a DC suppy to test the motor,as permanent damage to
the throttle body will result.

Required Special Tool:
MB995061: Purge Flow Indicator
1. Disconnect the purge hose from the evaporative emission
(EVAP) purge solenoid, and connect special tool MB995061
between the EVAP purge solenoid and the purge hose.
2. Before inspection, set the vehicle in the following conditions:
Engine coolant temperature: 80 95C (176 203F)
Lights, electric cooling fan and accessories: OFF
Transaxle: P range
3. Run the engine at idle for more than four minutes.
4. Check the purge flow volume when engine is revved
suddenly several times.
Standard value: Momentarily 20 cm
3/s (2.5 SCFH) or
more.
5. If the purge flow volume is less than the standard value,
check it again with the vacuum hose disconnected from the
EVAP canister. If the purge flow volume is less than the
standard value, check the vacuum port and the vacuum
hose for clogging. Also check the EVAP purge solenoid. If
the purge flow volume is at the standard value, replace the
EVAP canister.

1. Disconnect the vacuum hose (black, black with red paint
mark) from the evaporative emission (EVAP) purge
solenoid.
NOTE: When disconnecting the vacuum hose, always place
an identification mark so that it can be reconnected at its
original position.
2. Disconnect the harness connector.
3. Connect a hand vacuum pump to nipple (A) of the EVAP
purge solenoid (refer to the illustration at left).
4. As described in the chart below, check airtightness by
applying a vacuum with voltage applied directly from the
battery to the EVAP purge solenoid valve and without
applying voltage.

A/T DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLESHOOTING STRATEGYM1231007600339
Use these steps to plan your diagnostic strategy. If
you follow them carefully, you will find most A/T mal-
functions.
1. Gather as much information as possible about the
complaint from the customer.
2. Verify that the condition described by the
customer exists.
3. Check the vehicle for any A/T Diagnostic Trouble
Codes (DTCs).
4. If you can not verify the condition and there are no
DTCs, the malfunction is intermittent. For
information on how to cope with intermittent
malfunctions, refer to GROUP 00, How to Use
Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points
How
to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction P.00-14.
5. If you can verify the condition but there are no
DTCs, or the system can not communicate with
diagnostic tool, refer to the Symptom Chart
P.23A-35.6. If there is a DTC, record the number of the code,
then erase the code from memory using
diagnostic tool.
7. Reconfirm the symptom with a Road Test.
8. If a DTC is set again, go to the Inspection Chart
for Diagnostic Trouble Codes.
9. If a DTC is not set again, the malfunction is
intermittent. For information on how to cope with
intermittent malfunctions, refer to GROUP 00,
How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection Service
Points
How to Cope with Intermittent
Malfunction P.00-14.
10.After repairs are completed, conduct a Road Test
duplicating the complaint conditions to confirm the
malfunction has been eliminated.
DIAGNOSTIC FUNCTIONM1231022500135
CHECK "N" RANGE LIGHT
The "N" range light flashes once per second if there is an
abnormality in any of the items in the table below which are
related to the A/T system. Check for diagnostic trouble codes if
the "N" range light is flashing once per second.
NOTE: The "N" indicator lamp warning function does not
operate with the selector lever in the "P" (PARK), "R"
(REVERSE) or "N" (NEUTRAL) position.
"N" range light flashing items
Input shaft speed sensor
Output shaft speed sensor
Each solenoid valve
Gear incorrect ratio
A/T control relay system
If the "N" range light is flashing rapidly (twice per second),
the transmission fluid temperature is too high. (It flashes
when the fluid is approximately 125
C or more and goes
off when the fluid is approximately 115
C or less)
ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTICS
The automatic transmission -electronic control unit
(A/T-ECU) monitors its input/output signals (some
signals all the time and others under specified condi-
tions). When an irregular signal is initially monitored,
the A/T-ECU decides that a malfunction has
occurred and records the occurrence as a diagnostic
trouble code. The diagnostic results can be read with diagnostic tool. Diagnostic trouble codes are kept in
memory by direct battery feed. The codes are
retained in memory even if the ignition switch is in
the "LOCK" (OFF) position. DTCs are not erased
even after the battery terminals and the A/T-ECU
connector are disconnected. In addition, the diagnos-
tic trouble code can also be erased by diagnostic
tool.

FAIL-SAFE/BACKUP FUNCTIONM1231008300234
When a malfunction of a main sensor or actuator is
detected by the A/T-ECU, the transmission is con-
trolled by pre-set control logic to maintain safe condi-
tions for driving.The following table shows how the fail-safe/backup
function affects vehicle driveability and operation.

Input shaft speed sensor If no output pulse
from the input shaft
speed sensor is
detected for one
second or more
when the vehicle
speed is 30 km/h (19
mph) or greater.The diagnostic trouble code is recorded when the
malfunction occurs during 4 monitoring periods in
one drive cycle. When the judgment condition is
met, the transmission holds 3rd gear or 2nd gear,
depending on speed, as a fail-safe.
Output shaft speed sensor The output signal
from the output shaft
speed sensor is not
present for one
second or more
while the vehicle is
driven.The diagnostic trouble code is recorded when the
malfunction occurs during 4 monitoring periods in
one drive cycle. When the judgment condition is
met, the transmission holds 3rd gear or 2nd gear,
depending on speed, as a fail-safe.
