PRECAUTIONS
Precaution for Procedure without Cowl Top Cover
INFOID:0000000003897196
When performing the procedure after removing cowl top cover, cover
the lower end of windshield with urethane, etc.
Precaution for On Board Diagnosis (OBD) System of CVT and EngineINFOID:0000000003849068
The ECM has an on board diagnostic system. It will light up the malfunction indicator (MI) to warn the driver of
a malfunction causing emission deterioration.
CAUTION:
 Be sure to turn the ignition switch OFF and disconnect the battery cable from the negative terminal
before any repair or inspection work. The open/short circuit of related switches, sensors, solenoid
valves, etc. will cause the MI to light up.
 Be sure to connect and lock the connectors securely after work. A loose (unlocked) connector will
cause the MI to light up due to an open circuit. (Be sure the connector is free from water, grease, dirt,
bent terminals, etc.)
 Be sure to route and secure the harnesses properly after work. Interference of the harness with a
bracket, etc. may cause the MI to light up due to a short circuit.
 Be sure to connect rubber tubes properly after work. A misconnected or disconnected rubber tube
may cause the MI to light up due to a malfunction of the EVAP system or fuel injection system, etc.
 Be sure to erase the unnecessary malfunction information (repairs completed) from the TCM and
ECM before returning the vehicle to the customer.
Precaution for TCM and CVT Assembly ReplacementINFOID:0000000003849069
CAUTION:
 Check if new data (Unit ID) are entered correctly after replacing CVT assembly and erasing data in
TCM. (Connect CONSULT-III, and then turn ignition switch OFF.)
 When replacing CVT assembly or TCM, refer to the pattern table below and erase the EEPROM in the
TCM if necessary.

Inspection and AdjustmentINFOID:0000000003849084
INSPECTION
1. Move selector lever to “P” position, and turn ignition switch ON (engine stop).
2. Check that selector lever can be shifted to other than “P” position when brake pedal is depressed. Also
check that selector lever can be shifted from “P” position only when brake pedal is depressed.
3. Move selector lever and check for excessive effort, sticking, noise or rattle.
4. Check that selector lever stops at each position with the feel of engagement when it is moved through all
the positions. Check that the actual position of selector lever matches the position shown by shift position
indicator and manual lever on the transaxle.
5. The method of operating selector lever to individual positions
correctly should be as shown.
6. When selector button is pressed in “P”, “R”, “N”, “D” or “L” posi-
tion without applying forward/backward force to selector lever,
check button operation for sticking.
7. Check that back-up lamps illuminate only when selector lever is
placed in the “R” position.
8. When in “R” position, check that back-up lamps illuminate even
when the selector lever is pushed toward the “P” position.
CAUTION:
Check the lighting without pressing shift button.
9. Check that back-up lamps do not illuminate when selector lever is pushed toward the “R” position when in
the “P” or “N” position.
CAUTION:
Check the lighting without pressing shift button.
10. Check that the engine can only be started with selector lever in the “P” and “N” positions.
11. Check that transaxle is locked completely in “P” position.
ADJUSTMENT
1. Move selector lever to “ P” position.
CAUTION:
Turn wheels more than 1/4 rotations and apply the park
lock.
2. Loosen the control cable nut (A).
3. Place manual lever (B) to “P” position.
CAUTION:
Never apply any force to manual lever.
4. Tighten the control cable nut. Refer to TM-157, "
Exploded View".
CAUTION:
Fix manual lever when tightening.

INFOID:0000000003806346
SERVICE AFTER REPLACING TCM AND TRANSAXLE ASSEMBLY
Perform the applicable service according to the following sheet when replacing TCM or transaxle assembly.
CAUTION:
 Never start the engine until the service is completed.
 “TCM-POWER SUPPLY [P1701]” may be indicated soon after replacing TCM or transaxle assembly
(after erasing the memory at the pattern B). Restart the self-diagnosis after erasing the self-diagnosis
result. Check that no error is detected.
NOTE:
Old unit means that the unit has been already used for another vehicle.
PATTERN A
1. Shift the selector lever to “P” position after replacing TCM. Turn the ignition switch ON.
2. Check that the shift position indicator in the combination meter turns ON (It indicates approximately 1 or 2
seconds after turning the ignition switch ON.)
 Check the following items if the shift position indicator does not turn ON. Repair or replace the shift posi-
tion indicator if necessary.
- The harness between TCM and ROM ASSY in the transaxle assembly is open or shorted.
- Cable disconnected, loosen, or bent from the connector housing.
PATTERN B
1. Turn the ignition switch ON after replacing each part.
2. Start engine.
CAUTION:
Never start driving.
3. Select “Data Monitor” mode for “TRANSMISSION”.
4. Warm up the transaxle assembly until “ATFTEMP COUNT” indicates 47 [approximately 20°C (68°F)] or
more. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
5. Turn the ignition switch ON.
CAUTION:
Never start engine.
6. Select “Self Diagnostic Results” mode for “TRANSMISSION”.
7. Shift the selector lever to “R” position.
8. Depress slightly the accelerator pedal (Pedal angle: 2/8) while depressing the brake pedal.
9. Perform “Erase”.
10. Shift the selector lever to “R” position after replacing TCM. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
11. Wait approximately 10 seconds after turning the ignition switch OFF.
12. Turn the ignition switch ON while shifting the selector lever to “R” position.
CAUTION:
