DTC REPRODUCTION PROCEDURE

CAUTION:

Be careful of the driving speed.

1.

PREPARATION BEFORE WORK

If another “DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE” occurs just before, turn ignition switch OFF and wait for at

least 10 seconds, then perform the next test.

>> GO TO 2.

2.

CHECK DTC DETECTION

1. Drive the vehicle.

2. Maintain the following conditions for 5 seconds or more.

3. Stop the vehicle.

4. Check the first trip DTC.
Is “P0976” detected?

YES

>> Go to 

TM-210, "Diagnosis Procedure"

.

NO

>> INSPECTION END

Diagnosis Procedure

INFOID:0000000009267982

1.

CHECK CIRCUIT BETWEEN TCM AND A/T UNIT

1. Turn the ignition switch OFF.

2. Disconnect the TCM connector and A/T unit connector.

3. Check the continuity between TCM harness connector and ground.

Is the check result normal?

YES 

>> GO TO 2.

clutch solenoid valve current 
monitor reading is 200 mA or 
less continuously for 0.5 sec-
onds or more.
• Diagnosis condition
- Solenoid valve output cur-

rent: 750 mA or more

- GND short circuit diagnosis 

occurs in the solenoid valve 
drive circuit.

- TCM power supply voltage: 

10 V < TCM power supply 
voltage < 16 V
