M Position Test

Inspect the shift point for the M position.

If there is any malfunction, refer to appropriate symptom troubleshooting and verify the malfunction symptom.

Perform the shift operation while driving and verify that the gears can be shifted.
Verify that the gears shift from 6GR to 5GR, 5GR to 4GR, 4GR to 3GR, 3GR to 2GR, and 2GR to 1GR after releasing the accelerator pedal while driving in 5GR. In addition, verify that the vehicle speed corresponds to the shift point when shifting.
Verify that the engine braking operates in all gears after releasing the accelerator pedal while driving.
Verify that the vehicle speed corresponds to the shift point during TCC.

Verify that the shift shock is small, shifting is smooth and timely, and there is no abnormal noise or transaxle slip.

Inspect 2GR fixed mode.
1. Shift the selector lever to and 2GR while the vehicle is stopped or the vehicle speed is 15 km/h {9.3 mph} or less.
2. Verify that the gear ratio is fixed in 2GR.
3. Verify that the engine braking operates after releasing the accelerator pedal while driving.
4. Perform the shift operation while driving and verify that the gears can be shifted.
