Manual Shifting Test

HINT: With this test, it can be determined whether the trouble lies within the electrical circuit or is a mechanical problem in the transaxle.





1. DISCONNECT SOLENOID WIRE.
2. INSPECT MANUAL DRIVING OPERATION.





- Check that the shift and gear positions correspond with the table.

HINT: If the L,2 and D position gear positions are difficult to distinguish, perform the following road test.

- While driving, shift through the L,2 and D positions.
- Check that the gear change corresponds to the shift position.
- If any abnormality is found in the above test, the problem lies in transaxle itself.
3. CONNECT SOLENOID WIRE.
4. CANCEL OUT DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE.
- Diagnostic trouble code retained in memory by the ECM can be cancelled by removing the MFI fuse (15A) for 10 seconds or more, depending on ambient temperature (the lower the temperature, the longer the fuse must be left out) with the ignition switch OFF.

HINT:
- Cancellation can also be done by removing the battery negative (-) terminal, but in this case other memory systems (ABS diagnosis memory, etc.) will be also canceled out.
- The diagnostic trouble code can also be canceled out by disconnecting the ECM connector.
