Inspection Procedure

  1. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (BATTERY - TRANSMISSION CONTROL SWITCH) 
    1. Disconnect the transmission control switch connector of shift lever assembly.
    2. Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard voltage 

      VOLTAGE SPECIFICATION

      Tester Connection Switch Condition Specified Condition
      3 - Body ground Ignition switch ON (IG) 11 to 14 V
      Ignition switch OFF Below 1 V

    NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
