Symptom Troubleshooting Item Table

Use the chart below to verify the symptoms of the trouble in order to diagnose the appropriate area.

NOTE:

If a tire of a different diameter from the standard tire is installed, the TCM determines that the driving mode is the AAS mode, and may change to a different shift timing from the normal timing.

No.	TROUBLESHOOTING ITEM	DESCRIPTION	PAGE
1	Vehicle does not move in D, M or R position	Vehicle does not move when accelerator pedal is depressed.	(See NO. 1 VEHICLE DOES NOT MOVE IN D, M OR R POSITION ).
2	Vehicle moves in N position	Vehicle creeps in N position. Vehicle creeps if brake pedal is not depressed in N position.	(See NO. 2 VEHICLE MOVES IN N POSITION ).
3	Vehicle moves in P position, or parking gear does not disengage when P is disengaged	Vehicle rolls when on a downward slope and tires do not lock in P position. Tires are locked when P is disengaged. Vehicle does not move in D and R position when the accelerator pedal is depressed, and the engine remains in a stalled condition.	(See NO. 3 VEHICLE MOVES IN P POSITION, OR PARKING GEAR DOES NOT DISENGAGE WHEN P IS DISENGAGED ).
4	Excessive creep	Vehicle accelerates in D and R position when accelerator pedal is not depressed.	(See NO. 4 EXCESSIVE CREEP ).
5	No creep at all	Vehicle does not move in D and R position when idling on a flat paved road.	(See NO. 5 NO CREEP AT ALL ).
6	Low maximum speed and poor acceleration	Vehicle acceleration is poor at start. Delayed acceleration when accelerator pedal is depressed while driving.	(See NO. 6 LOW MAXIMUM SPEED AND POOR ACCELERATION ).
7	No shifting	Single shift position only. Sometimes it shifts correctly.	(See NO. 7 NO SHIFTING ).
8	Does not shift to 6GR	Vehicle does not upshift from 5GR to 6GR even though vehicle speed increased. Vehicle does not shift to 6GR even though accelerator pedal is released in D position at 80 km/h {50 mph}.	(See NO. 8 DOES NOT SHIFT TO 6GR ).
9	Abnormal shifting	Shifts incorrectly (incorrect shift pattern).	(See NO. 9 ABNORMAL SHIFTING ).
10	Frequent shifting	Downshifting occurs suddenly even when accelerator pedal is depressed slightly in D position.	(See NO. 10 FREQUENT SHIFTING ).
11	Shift point is high or low	Shift point considerably different from automatic shift diagram. Shift delays when accelerating. Shift occurs suddenly when accelerating and engine speed does not increase.	(See NO. 11 SHIFT POINT IS HIGH OR LOW ).
12	Torque converter clutch (TCC) non-operation	TCC does not operate when vehicle reaches TCC operation range.	(See NO. 12 TORQUE CONVERTER CLUTCH (TCC) NON-OPERATION ).
13	No kickdown	Does not downshift when accelerator pedal is fully depressed within kickdown range.	(See NO. 13 NO KICKDOWN ).
14	Engine flares up or slips when upshifting or downshifting	When the accelerator pedal is depressed for acceleration from standstill, engine speed increases normally but the vehicle speed increases slowly. When the accelerator pedal is depressed while driving, engine speed increases but vehicle speed does not increase.	(See NO. 14 ENGINE FLARES UP OR SLIPS WHEN UPSHIFTING OR DOWNSHIFTING ).
15	Engine flares up or slips when accelerating vehicle	Engine flares up when the accelerator pedal is depressed for upshifting. Engine flares up suddenly when the accelerator pedal is depressed for downshifting.	(See NO. 15 ENGINE FLARES UP OR SLIPS WHEN ACCELERATING VEHICLE ).
16	Judder upon torque converter clutch (TCC) operation	Vehicle jolts when TCC is engaged.	(See NO. 16 JUDDER UPON TORQUE CONVERTER CLUTCH (TCC) OPERATION ).
17	Excessive shift shock from N to D or N to R position	Strong shock is felt when shifting from N to D or N to R position at idle.	(See NO. 17 EXCESSIVE SHIFT SHOCK FROM N TO D OR N TO R POSITION ).
18	Excessive shift shock is given when upshifting and downshifting	Excessive shift shock is felt when depressing the accelerator pedal at upshifting. During cruising, excessive shift shock is felt when depressing the accelerator pedal at downshifting.	(See NO. 18 EXCESSIVE SHIFT SHOCK IS GIVEN WHEN UPSHIFTING AND DOWNSHIFTING ).
19	Excessive shift shock on torque converter clutch (TCC)	Strong shock is felt when the TCC is engaged.	(See NO. 19 EXCESSIVE SHIFT SHOCK ON TORQUE CONVERTER CLUTCH (TCC) ).
20	Noise occurs at idle when vehicle is stopped in all positions	Transmission is noisy in all positions when the vehicle is idling.	(See NO. 20 NOISE OCCURS AT IDLE WHEN VEHICLE IS STOPPED IN ALL POSITIONS ).
21	Noise occurs at idle when vehicle is stopped in D or R position	Transmission is noisy in driving positions when vehicle is idling.	(See NO. 21 NOISE OCCURS AT IDLE WHEN VEHICLE IS STOPPED IN D OR R POSITION ).
22	No engine braking	Engine speed drops to idle but the vehicle coasts when the accelerator pedal is released during cruising at medium to high speeds. Engine speed drops to idle but the vehicle coasts when the accelerator pedal is released when in M position (1GR) at low vehicle speed.	(See NO. 22 NO ENGINE BRAKING ).
23	Transmission overheats	Burnt smell is emitted from the transmission. Smoke is emitted from the transmission.	(See NO. 23 TRANSMISSION OVERHEATS ).
24	Engine stalls when shifted to D or R position	Engine stalls when shifting from N or P position to D or R position at idle.	(See NO. 24 ENGINE STALLS WHEN SHIFTED TO D OR R POSITION ).
25	Engine stalls when driving at slow speed or stopping	Engine stalls when the brake pedal is depressed while driving at low speed or stopping.	(See NO. 25 ENGINE STALLS WHEN DRIVING AT SLOW SPEED OR STOPPING ).
26	Starter does not work	Starter does not work even when P or N position is selected.	(See NO. 26 STARTER DOES NOT WORK ).
27	Gear position indication does not illuminate in D or M position	Gear position indication in instrument cluster does not illuminate in D or M position with the ignition switch at ON.	(See NO. 27 GEAR POSITION INDICATION ILLUMINATES IN D POSITION ).
28	Gear position indication illuminate in P, R and N position	Gear position indication in instrument cluster illuminates in P, R and N position with the ignition switch at ON.	(See NO. 28 GEAR POSITION INDICATION DOES NOT ILLUMINATE IN M POSITION ).
29	Does not upshift in M position	Gear position indication in instrument cluster illuminates, but the vehicle does not upshift when the selector lever is pushed to "+" side or steering shift switch "UP" is pulled.	(See NO. 29 DOES NOT UPSHIFT IN M POSITION ).
30	Does not downshift in M position	Gear position indication in instrument cluster illuminates, but the vehicle does not downshift when the selector lever is pushed to "-" side or steering shift switch "DOWN" is pushed.	(See NO. 30 DOES NOT DOWNSHIFT IN M POSITION ).
31	Manual shift mode indication does not illuminate in M position and/or in D position with direct mode/Manual shift mode indication illuminates in D position while not in direct mode	Manual shift mode indication in instrument cluster does not illuminate in M and/or D position in direct mode when ignition switch is in ON position. Manual shift mode indication illuminates in D position while not in direct mode when ignition switch is in ON position.	(See NO. 31 MANUAL SHIFT MODE INDICATION DOES NOT ILLUMINATE IN M POSITION AND/OR IN D POSITION WITH DIRECT MODE/MANUAL SHIFT MODE INDICATION ILLUMINATES IN D POSITION WHILE NOT IN DIRECT MODE ).
