Signal Circuit Inspection

  1. CHECK A/T control relay harness
    1. Ignition "OFF".
    2. Disconnect the "A/T CONTROL RELAY" connector.
    3. Measure the voltage between terminal "4" of the "A/T CONTROL RELAY" harness connector and chassis ground.
    4. Engine OFF → ON.

      Specification: 12V is measured only for approx. 0.5sec

    5. Is voltage within specifications?

      YES  : --> Go to  2 "Check Supplying Power to solenoid valve" procedure.

      NO  : --> Check for open in harness. Repair as necessary and Go to "VERIFICATION OF VEHICLE REPAIR " procedure.

      --> If signal circuit is OK, Substitute with a known-good PCM/TCM and check for proper operation. If the problem is corrected, replace PCM/TCM and then go to "VERIFICATION OF VEHICLE REPAIR " procedure.

  2. CHECK Supplying Power to solenoid valve harness
    1. Ignition "OFF".
    2. Disconnect the "A/T CONTROL RELAY" and PCM/TCM connector.
    3. [2.4L] 

      Measure the resistance between terminal "3" of the "A/T CONTROL RELAY" harness connector and terminal "49/50" of the TCM (PCM) harness connector.

      [2.7L] 

      Measure the resistance between terminal "3" of the "A/T CONTROL RELAY" harness connector and terminal "60" of the PCM/TCM harness connector.

      Specification: Approx. 0 Ω

    4. Is resistance within specifications?

      YES  : --> Go to "GROUND CIRCUIT INSPECTION " procedure.

      NO  : --> Check that A/T-20A Fuse in engine room junction is installed or not blown.

      --> Check for open in harness. Repair as necessary and Go to "VERIFICATION OF VEHICLE REPAIR " procedure.
