CONSULT Self Diagnostic Procedure
NOTE:
1. The CONSULT tool electrically displays shift timing and lock-up timing (that is, operation timing of each solenoid).
Check for time difference between actual shift timing and the CONSULT display. If the difference is noticeable, mechanical parts (except solenoids, sensors, etc.) may be malfunctioning. Check mechanical parts using applicable diagnostic procedures.
2. Shift schedules (which implies gear position) displayed on CONSULT and shift schedules published in reference charts may differ slightly. This occurs because of the following reasons:
- Actual shift schedule has more or less tolerance or allowance,
- Shift schedules indicated in reference charts refer to the point where shifts start, and gear position displayed on CONSULT indicates the point where shifts are completed.
3. Shift solenoid valve "A" or "B" is displayed on CONSULT at the start of shifting while gear position is displayed upon completion of shifting (which is computed by A/T control unit).
4. Additional CONSULT information can be found in the Operation Manual supplied with the CONSULT unit.
SELF-DIAGNOSIS RESULT TEST MODE
The "Self-Diagnostic Results" display on CONSULT shows malfunctions experienced since the last DTC erasure procedure.
CONSULT also performs "REAL-TIME SELF DIAGNOSIS" while operating in the self diagnostic mode. Any malfunction detected while in this mode will be displayed at "real time".

Remarks:
1. When selecting ECU input signals on CONSULT, electronic control unit input signals are set.
2. When selecting main signals on CONSULT, monitored items for understanding overall system operation are set. This setting is indicated by a reversed display.
