1. Raise the vehicle on a lift, or apply the parkingbrake, block the rear wheels, and raise the front of
the vehicle. Make sure it is securely supported.
2. Remove the splash shield.
3. Remove the drain plug (A), and drain the automatic transmission fluid (ATF).
4. Reinstall the drain plug with a new sealing washer (B).
5. Do the battery removal procedure (see page 22-69).
6. Remove the intake air duct (see page 11-348) and the air cleaner assembly (see page 11-345).
7. Remove the battery tray, the battery base, and the resonator. 8. Remove the shift solenoid valve cover (A), the

10. Measure the ATF temperature sensor resistance between shift solenoid wire harness connector
terminals No. 6 and No. 7.
If the resistance is within the standard, install the shift solenoid wire harness and a new O-ring in
the transmission, then go to step 13.
If the resistance is out of standard, go to step 11.
11. Disconnect the connectors from the shift solenoid valves, and replace the ATF temperature sensor/
shift solenoid harness assembly (F) and the O-ring
(G) with new ones.
NOTE: The ATF temperature sensor is not available
separately from the shift solenoid wire harness.
12. Connect the shift solenoid valve connectors: BLU wire to shift solenoid valve A.
ORN wire to shift solenoid valve B.
GRN wire to shift solenoid valve C.
YEL, WHT, and WHT wire connector to shiftsolenoid valve D.
RED wire to shift solenoid valve E.
13. Install a new gasket, the dowel pins, and the shift solenoid valve cover.
14. Check the connector for rust, dirt, or oil, clean or repair if necessary, then connect the connector
securely. 15. Refill the transmission with ATF (see step 5 on page
14-232).
16. Install the battery tray, the battery base, and the resonator.
17. Install the air cleaner assembly (see page 11-345) and the intake air duct (see page 11-348).
18. Do the battery installation procedure (see page 22-69).
19. Install the splash shield.

ABS Components
General Troubleshooting Information (cont’d)
The memory holds all DTCs. However, when the
same DTC is detected more than once, the more
recent DTC is written over the earlier one. Therefore,
when the same problem is detected repeatedly, it is
memorized as a single DTC.
The DTCs are indicated in the order they occur.
The DTCs are memorized in the EEPROM. Therefore, the memorized DTCs cannot be erased by
disconnecting the battery. Do the specified
procedures to clear the DTCs.
Self-diagnosis can be classified into two categories: – Initial diagnosis: Done right after the ignition switch is turned to ON (II) and until the ABS indicator goes
off.
– Regular diagnosis: Done right after the initial diagnosis until the ignition switch is turned to
LOCK (0).
When the system detects a problem, the ABS modulator-control unit shifts to fail-safe mode.
The pump motor operates when the ABS modulator-
control unit is functioning, and the fluid in the reservoir
is forced out to the master cylinder, causing kickback at
the brake pedal. The pump motor operates when the ABS modulator- control unit is functioning.
The ABS modulator-control unit checks the pump motor operation one time after completing initial
diagnosis during regular diagnosis when the vehicle
is driven over 15 km/h (10 mph).
Brake fluid replacement and air bleeding procedures
are identical to the procedures used on vehicles without
ABS (see page 19-9). The troubleshooting procedures assume that the cause
of the problem is still present, and the ABS indicator is
still on. Following a troubleshooting procedure for a
code that has been cleared but does not reset can result
in incorrect diagnosis.
1. Question the client about the conditions when the problem occurred, and try to reproduce the same
conditions for troubleshooting. Find out when the
ABS indicator came on, such as during activation,
after activation, when the vehicle was traveling at a
certainspeed,etc.Ifnecessary,havetheclient
demonstrate the concern.
2. When the ABS indicator does not come on during the test-drive, check for loose connectors, poor
contact of the terminals, etc. in the circuit indicated
by the DTC before you start troubleshooting.
3. After troubleshooting, or the repairs are done, clear the DTCs, and test-drive the vehicle under the same
conditions that originally set the DTCs. Make sure
the ABS indicator does not come on.
4. Check for DTCs from other systems which are connected via F-CAN. If there are DTCs that are
related to F-CAN, one possible cause was that the
ignition switch was turned to ON (II) with the ABS
modulator-control unit connector disconnected.
Clear the DTCs. Check for fuel and emissions DTC’s
first.
NOTE: Always troubleshoot fuel and emissions
DTC’s first.
The term ‘‘intermittent failure’’ means a system may
have had a failure, but it checks OK now. If you cannot
reproduce the condition, check for loose connectors or
terminal pins related to the circuit that you are
troubleshooting.

AIR MIX CONTROL MOTOR
B

NOTE: Before testing, check for HVAC DTCs (see page
21-9). 1. Disconnect the 7P connector from the air mix control motor.
Incorrectly applying power and ground to
the air mix control motor will damage it.
Follow the instructions carefully.
2. Connect battery power to terminal No. 1 of the air mix control motor, and ground terminal No. 2; the
air mix control motor should run, and stop at Max
Hot. If it doesn’t, reverse the connections; the air
mix control motor should run, and stop at Max Cool.
When the air mix control motor stops running,
disconnect battery power immediately.
3. If the air mix control motor did not run in step 2, remove it, then check the air mix control linkage
and door for smooth movement.
If the linkage and door move smoothly, replace the air mix control motor (see page 21-72).
If the linkage or door sticks or binds, repair them as needed.
If the air mix control motor runs smoothly, go to step 4.
4. Measure the resistance between terminals No. 5 and No. 7. It should be between 4.2 to 7.8 k .
5. Reconnect the air mix control motor 7P connector, then turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
6. Using the backprobe set, measure the voltage between terminals No. 3 and No. 7.
7. If either the resistance or voltage readings are not as specified, replace the air mix control motor
(see page 21-72). 1. Remove the driver’s dashboard undercover
(see page 20-103).
2. Disconnect the 7P connector (A) from the air mix control motor (B). Remove the self-tapping screws
and the air mix control motor from the heater unit.
3. Install the motor in the reverse order of removal. Make sure the pin on the motor is properly
engaged with the linkage. After installation, make
sure the motor runs smoothly.

NOTE: Before testing, check for HVAC DTCs (see page
21-9).
1. Disconnect the 7P connector from the mode control motor.
Incorrectly applying power and ground to
the mode control motor will damage it.
Follow the instructions carefully.
2. Connect battery power to terminal No. 1 of the mode control motor, and ground terminal No. 2;
the mode control motor should run smoothly, and
stop at Vent. If it doesn’t, reverse the c onnections;
the mode control motor should run smoothly, and
stop at Defrost. When the mode control motor
stops running, disconnect battery power
immediately.
3. If the mode control motor did not run in step 2, remove it, then check the mode control linkage and
doors for smooth movement.
If the linkage and doors move smoothly, replace the mode control motor (see page 21-73).
If the linkage or doors stick or bind, repair them as needed.
If the mode control motor runs smoothly, go to step 4.
4. Use a digital multimeter with an output of 1 mA or less at the 20 k range. With the mode control
motor running as in step 2, check for continuity
between terminals No. 3, 4, 5, and 6 and terminal
No. 7 individually. There should be continuity for a
moment at each terminal as the motor moves past
the switch’s terminal.
5. If there is no continuity for a moment at each terminal, replace the mode control motor (see page
21-73). 1. Remove the glove box (see page 20-104).
2. Remove the wire harness clip (A), the self-tapping
screws, and the passenger’s heater duct (B).
3. Disconnect the 7P connector (A) from the mode control motor (B). Remove the self-tapping screws
and the mode control motor from the heater unit.
4. Install the motor in the reverse order of removal. Make sure the pin on the motor is properly
engaged with the linkage. After installation, make
sure the motor runs smoothly.
