TCM Inspection

TCM INSPECTION

Caution:
^ The TCM terminal voltages vary with changes in measuring and vehicle conditions. Always carry out a total inspection of the input and output systems, and the TCM to determine the cause of trouble. Otherwise, a mix-diagnosis could occur.

1. Measure the voltage at each terminal.
^ If any incorrect voltage is detected, inspect the related system(s), wiring harnesses and connector(s).

Part 4:





Note:
^ Use the ground of terminal 1O and 1P of the TCM when measuring terminal voltage, as an error may occur when connecting the negative circuit tester to ground.

Inspection Using an Oscilloscope (Reference)





VSS signal
