3. Remove the TCM. (See TCM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [AW6A-EL, AW6AX-EL].)

4. Verify that continuity or resistance at terminal is as indicated in the terminal continuity/resistance table.



If there is any malfunction, inspect the parts under "Inspection item (s)".



If the system does not work properly even though the parts or related wiring harnesses do not
have any malfunction, replace the TCM. (See TCM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION
[AW6A-EL, AW6AX-EL].)
