Diagnostic Procedure with Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC)

Step

Check

Yes

No

1

CHECK DTC OF TCM.

Is DTC of Transmission Range
Sensor Circuit (PRNDL Input)
circuit detected?

Perform the diag-
nosis according to
DTC.

Go to step 2.

2

CHECK HARNESS CONNECTOR BETWEEN
TCM AND BACK-UP LIGHT RELAY.
1) Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
2) Disconnect the connector from TCM and
back-up light relay.
3) Measure the resistance of harness
between TCM and back-up light relay connec-
tor.

Connector & terminal

(B55) No. 11 — (B356) No. 1:

Is the resistance less than 1
Ω?

Go to step 3.

Repair the open
circuit of harness
between TCM and
transmission con-
nector, and poor
contact in connec-
tor.

3

CHECK HARNESS CONNECTOR BETWEEN
TCM AND TRANSMISSION.
Measure the resistance of harness between
TCM connector and chassis ground.

Connector & terminal

(B55) No. 11 — Chassis ground:

Is the resistance more than 1
M

Ω?

Go to step 4.

Repair the short
circuit of harness
between TCM and
transmission con-
nector.

4

CHECK TCM OUTPUT SIGNAL.
1) Turn the ignition switch to ON. (engine
OFF)
2) Set the select lever to “P” range.

Is the voltage more than 10 V? Go to step 5.

Replace the TCM.
<Ref. to 5AT-61,
Transmission Con-
trol Module
(TCM).>

5

CHECK TCM OUTPUT SIGNAL.
Set the select lever to “R” range.

Is the voltage less than 1 V?

Go to step 6.

Replace the TCM.
<Ref. to 5AT-61,
Transmission Con-
trol Module
(TCM).>

6

CHECK INPUT VOLTAGE FOR BACK-UP
LIGHT RELAY.
Measure the voltage between back-up light
relay and chassis ground.

Is the voltage 10 — 13 V?

Replace the back-
up light relay.

Check open or
short circuit of har-
ness between fuse
(No. 18) and back-
up light relay.

Diagnostic Procedure with Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC)

AF:DTC P0958 BACKUP LIGHT RELAY CIRCUIT HIGH

DTC DETECTING CONDITION:
Backup light relay malfunction, or open/short circuit in back-up light relay output circuit
TROUBLE SYMPTOM:
• Back-up light does not illuminate in “R” range.
• Back-up light always illuminate except in “R” range.
