Transmission Control Switch Circuit: Procedure
- INSPECT TRANSMISSION CONTROL SWITCH
- Disconnect the G36 transmission control switch connector.
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition 3 (IG) - 7 (S) Shift lever in S, "+" or "-" Below 1 Ω 2 (SFTU) - 5 (E) Shift lever held in "+"
(Up-shift)Below 1 Ω 1 (SFTD) - 5 (E) Shift lever held in "-"
(Down-shift)Below 1 Ω 3 (IG) - 7 (S) Shift lever not in S, "+" or "-" 10 kΩ or higher 2 (SFTU) - 5 (E) Shift lever in S 10 kΩ or higher 1 (SFTD) - 5 (E) Shift lever in S 10 kΩ or higher TEXT IN ILLUSTRATION*a Component without harness connected
(Transmission Control Switch)
NG → See step 5
OK: Go to next step
- Disconnect the G36 transmission control switch connector.
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (TRANSMISSION CONTROL SWITCH - BATTERY, BODY GROUND)
- Disconnect the G36 transmission control switch connector.
- Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Voltage
Tester Connection Switch Condition Specified Condition G36-3 (IG) - Body ground Engine switch on (IG) 11 to 14 V Engine switch off Below 1 V - Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition G36-5 (E) - Body ground Always Below 1 Ω TEXT IN ILLUSTRATION*a Front view of wire harness connector
(to Transmission Control Switch)
NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK: Go to next step
- Disconnect the G36 transmission control switch connector.
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (TRANSMISSION CONTROL SWITCH - ECM)
- Disconnect the G45 ECM connector.
- Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Voltage
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition G45-24 (S) - Body ground - Engine switch on (IG)
- Shift lever in S, "+" or "-"
11 to 14 V - Engine switch on (IG)
- Shift lever not in S, "+" or "-"
Below 1 V - Turn the engine switch off.
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition G45-16 (SFTU) - Body ground Shift lever held in "+"
(Up-shift)Below 1 Ω G45-22 (SFTD) - Body ground Shift lever held in "-"
(Down-shift)Below 1 Ω G45-16 (SFTU) - Body ground Shift lever in S 10 kΩ or higher G45-22 (SFTD) - Body ground Shift lever in S 10 kΩ or higher TEXT IN ILLUSTRATION*a Front view of wire harness connector
(to ECM)
NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK → See step 4
- Disconnect the G45 ECM connector.
- PROCEED TO NEXT SUSPECTED AREA SHOWN IN PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE. Refer to PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE [06/2012 - ]
- REPLACE TRANSMISSION CONTROL SWITCH (TRANSMISSION FLOOR SHIFT ASSEMBLY). Refer to REMOVAL [06/2012 - ]
