1. | If the [D] indicator or MIL has been reported on, check for a DTC, and repair the system as indicated by DTC. |
2. | If the [D] indicator, A/T gear position indicator, and [M] indicator do not come on, or the shift indicator works improperly, remove the gauge assembly from the dashboard, then disconnect the gauge assembly connectors A (20P) and B (14P). |
3. | Inspect the connectors and connector terminals to be sure they are making good contact. |
4. | If the terminals are bent, loose, or corroded, repair them as necessary, and recheck the system. |
5. | Shift to the [P] position, and check for continuity between B14 terminal (BLU/BLK) and ground. There should be continuity in the [P] position and no continuity in any other shift lever position. If the test results are different, check for faulty transmission range switch or open in the wire.
|
6. | Turn the ignition switch ON (II), and shift to the [R] position with pressing the brake pedal. Check for voltage between B13 terminal (WHT) and ground. There should be 0 V in the [R] position, and about 10 V in any other position. If the test results are different, check for a faulty transmission range switch or an open in the wire. |
7. | Shift to the [N] position, and check for continuity between B12 terminal (RED/BLK) and ground. There should be continuity in the [N] position and no continuity in any other position. If the test results are different, check for faulty transmission range switch or open in the wire. |
8. | Shift to the [D] position, and check for voltage between B9 terminal (PNK) and ground. There should be battery voltage in the [D] position, and 0 V in any other position. If the test results are different, check for faulty transmission range switch and PCM, or an open in the wire. |
9. | Shift to the [S] position, and check for voltage between B8 terminal (BLU/WHT) and ground. There should be battery voltage in the [S] position, and 0 V in any other position. If the test results are different, check for a faulty transmission range switch and PCM, or an open in the wire. |
10. | Shift to the [L] position, and check for voltage between B10 terminal (BLU) and ground. There should be 0 V in the [L] position, and about 10 V in any other position. If the test results are different, check for a faulty transmission range switch or an open in the wire. |
11. | Shift to the [D] or [S] position, push the main switch (7SPEED MODE) (A), then push both plus (+) and minus (-) of the steering shift switches (B).
|
12. | Check for voltage between B11 terminal (BRN/WHT) and ground. There should be battery voltage in the 7-speed manual shifting mode, and 0 V out of the 7-speed manual shifting mode. If the test results are different, check for faulty main switch (7SPEED MODE)/steering shift switch and PCM, or an open in the wire.
|
13. | Check for voltage between A2 terminal (YEL) and ground. There should be battery voltage. If the test result is different, check for a blown No. 16 (7.5A) fuse in the under-dash fuse/relay box or an open in the wire.
|
14. | Check for continuity between A9 terminal (BLK) and ground. There should be continuity under all conditions. If the test results is different, check for a poor ground (G501) or an open in the wire. |
15. | Turn the ignition switch OFF. |
16. | Connect gauge assembly connectors A (20P) and B (14P). |
17. | Start the engine, and shift to the [D] or [S] position.Push the main switch (7SPEED MODE), then push the steering shift switch plus(+). The shift indicator displays 1 in the shift indicator. |
18. | Check for LED A voltage between B5 terminal and ground,and check for LED B voltage between B4 and ground. There should be about 5 V. Check for LED C voltage between B3 terminal and ground. There should be about 0.3 V.
|
19. | If a input test prove OK, but the indicator is faulty,replace the gauge assembly. |
