MANUAL SHIFTING TEST
1. PERFORM MANUAL SHIFTING TEST
HINT:
S With this test, it can be determined whether the trouble oc-
curs in the electrical circuit or is a mechanical problem in
the transaxle.
S If any abnormalities are found in the following test, the
problem is in the transaxle itself.
(a) Disconnect the transmission wire connector.
(b) Drive with the transmission wire disconnected. Shifting the shift lever to the D position to check whether
the shifting condition changes the table below.
Shift PositionShifting Condition
DNo Shift (Not Change)
HINT:
When driving with the transmission wire disconnected, the gear
position will be as follows:
S When the shift lever is in the D position, the gear is held
in the 4th position.
S When the shift lever is in the R or the P position, the gear
is also in the R or the P position respectively.
(c) Connect the transmission wire connector.
(d) Clear the DTC (see page 05 −557).
