Component Inspection

■ Clutch Switch Check 

  1. IG OFF.
  2. Disconnect the clutch switch connector.
  3. Measure resistance between power terminal and signal terminal of the clutch switch connector.

    Specification: 

    Approx. below 1Ω (In case of pressing the clutch switch)

    Approx. ∞ Ω (In case of not pressing the clutch switch)

  4. Is the measured value within specifications?

    YES 

    • Fault might be intermittent caused by poor connection in clutch switch harness and/or HECU's connector.

    NO 

    • Substitute with a known-good clutch switch and check for proper operation. If problem is corrected, replace clutch switch and then go to "Verification Of Vehicle Repair" procedure.
