How to Troubleshoot Circuits at the PCM
Connectors
14-5
A
D E
B
A
C A
D
B
C
A
NOTE: The PCM overwrites data and monitors the EVAP
system for about 30 minutes after the ignition switch is
turned to LOCK (0) or ACC (I). Jumping the SCS line
after turning the ignition switch to LOCK (0) or ACC (I)
cancels this function. Disconnecting the PCM during
this function, without jumping the SCS line first, can
damage the PCM.
1. Make sure the ignition switch is turned to LOCK (0), then jump the SCS line with the HDS.
2. Remove the cover (A).
3. Lift up the under-hood fuse/relay box (D).
4. Remove the coolant reservoir (E). Disconnect PCM connectors A, B, and C, and probe the terminals
from the terminal side of the connectors.
NOTE: PCM connectors A, B, and C have symbols
(A= , B= , C= ) embossed on them for
identification. 5. When diagnosis/troubleshooting is done at the
PCM connector, use the terminal test port (A) above
the terminal you need to check.
6. Connect one side of the patch cord’s terminals (A) to a commercially available digital multimeter (B),
and connect the other side cord’s terminals (C) to a
commercially available banana jack (Pomona
Electronics Tool No. 3563 or equivalent) (D).
7. Gently contact the pin probe (male) at the terminal test port from the terminal side. Do not force the
tips into the terminals.
 For accurate results, always use the pin probe (male).
 To prevent damage to the connector terminals, do not insert test equipment
probes, paper clips, or other substitutes as
they can damage the terminals. Damaged
terminals cause a poor connection and an
incorrect measurement.
 Do not puncture the insulation on a wire. Punctures can cause poor or intermittent
electrical connections.

Clear A/T DTCs Procedure
OBD StatusHow to End a Troubleshooting Session
(required after any troubleshooting)
Failure Reproduction Technique
14-6Automatic Transmission
General Troubleshooting Information (cont’d)
A
1. Connect the HDS to the DLC (A) located under the
driver’s side of the dashboard.
2. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
3. Make sure the HDS communicates with the PCM. If it does not, go to the DLC circuit troubleshooting
(see page 11-204).
4. Clear the DTC(s) on the HDS screen.
The OBD status shows the current system status of
each DTC and all of the parameters. This function is
used to see if the technician’s repair was successfully
completed. The results of diagnostic tests for the DTC
are displayed as:  PASSED: The on-board diagnosis is successfully completed.
 FAILED: The on-board diagnosis has finished but failed.
 NOT COMPLETED: The on-board diagnosis was running but is out of the enable conditions of the DTC. NOTE: Reset the PCM with the HDS while the engine is
stopped.
1. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
2. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II), and wait for 30 seconds.
3. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0), and disconnect the HDS from the DLC.
4. Do the PCM idle learn procedure (see page 11-310).
5. Start the engine with the shift lever in P or N, and warm it up to normal operating temperature (the
radiator fan comes on).
6. To verify that the problem is repaired, test-drive the vehicle for several minutes at speeds over 50 km/h
(31 mph) or under the same conditions as those
indicated by the freeze data.
Make sure to follow these points while the vehicle is
raised on a lift for the test-drive.  Disable the VSA by pressing the VSA OFF switch.
 VSA DTC’s may come on when test-driving on a lift. If the VSA DTC(s) come on, clear the DTC(s) with the
HDS.

Axle disengaged Check the ATF level, and check the ATF cooler lines
for leaks and loose connections. If necessary, clean
the ATF cooler lines.
Check for a loose shift cable at the shift lever and
the selector control lever.
Improper alignment of ATF pump and torque
converter housing may cause ATF pump seizure.
The symptoms are mostly an rpm-related ticking
noise or a high pitched squeak.
Check the line pressure.
Be careful not to damage the torque converter
housing when replacing the main ball bearing. You
may also damage the ATF pump when you torque
down the main valve body. This will result in ATF
pump seizure if not detected. Use the proper tools.
Install the main seal flush with the torque converter
housing. If you push it into the torque converter
housing until it bottoms out, it will block the fluid
return passage and result in damage.
Check the ATF strainer for debris. If the ATF
strainer is clogged with particles of steel or
aluminum, inspect the ATF pump. If the ATF pump
is OK, find the damaged components that caused
the debris. If no cause for contamination is found,
replace the torque converter.
Inspect the differential pinion gears for wear. If the
differential pinion gears are worn, replace the
differential assembly, replace the ATF strainer,
thoroughly clean the transmission, and clean the
torque converter, cooler, and lines.

Inspect the clutch piston, the clutch piston check
valve, and the O-rings. Check the spring retainer
and the retainer seal for wear and damage. Inspect
the clearance between the clutch end-plate and the
top disc. If the clearance is out of tolerance, inspect
the clutch discs and the plates for wear and
damage. If the discs are worn or damaged, replace
them as a set. Inspect the clutch wave-plate height.
If the height is out of tolerance, replace the wave-
plate. If the discs and the plates are OK, adjust the
clearance with the clutch end-plate.
Inspect the 1st clutch feed pipe. If the 1st clutch
feed pipe is scored, replace the end cover.
Replace the secondary shaft if the bushing for the
1st clutch feed pipe is loose or damaged.
Check the 1st accumulator piston, the O-ring, and
the springs in the regulator valve body for wear
and damage.
