DTC 6-1: A/T Shift Position Signal
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1998 Acura 3.5RL and 1997 Acura 3.5RL. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Disconnect PCM 26-pin connector "E" and TCS control unit 20-pin connector. See Figure . Check for continuity between ground and PCM 26-pin connector "E" terminal No. 6 (Pink/Blue wire). See Fig 1 . If continuity does not exist, go to next step. If continuity exists, repair short to ground in Pink/Blue wire between PCM 26-pin connector "E" terminal No. 6 and TCS control unit 20-pin connector terminal No. 5. See WIRING DIAGRAMS .
- Reconnect PCM 26-pin connector "E". Ensure transmission is in Park position. Start engine. Measure voltage between ground and PCM 26-pin connector "E" terminal No. 6 (Pink/Blue wire). See Fig 1 . Reading should be approximately 4 volts. If reading is as specified, go to next step. If reading is not as specified, check for poor connection to PCM. If connection is okay, replace PCM and retest system.
- With transmission in Park position, measure voltage between ground and TCS control unit 20-pin connector terminal No. 5 (Pink/Blue wire). See Figure . Reading should be approximately 4 volts. If reading is not as specified, repair open in Pink/Blue wire between TCS control unit 20-pin connector terminal No. 5 and PCM 26-pin connector "E" terminal No. 6. If reading is as specified, check for poor connection at TCS control unit. If connection is okay, replace TCS control unit.
