STEP 4. Measure the Overdrive solenoid valve resistance
at A/T control solenoid valve assembly connector B-40.
(1) Disconnect connector B-40 and measure at the solenoid

valve side.

(2) Measure the resistance between solenoid valve assembly

connector B-40 terminals 5 and 9.

Resistance value: 2.7

−3.4 Ω [at 20°C (68°F)]

Q: Is the measured resistance 2.7

−3.4 Ω [at 20°C (68°F)]?

YES : Go to Step 6.
NO : Go to Step 5.

STEP 5. Measure the solenoid valve resistance at the
overdrive solenoid valve assembly inside the transaxle.
(1) Disconnect connector B-40-3 and measure at the solenoid

valve side.

(2) Measure the resistance between Overdrive solenoid valve

terminals 1 and 2.

Resistance value: 2.7

−3.4 Ω [at 20°C (68°F)]

Q: Is the measured resistance 2.7

−3.4 Ω [at 20°C (68°F)?

YES : Replace the harness wire between A/T control

solenoid valve assembly connector B-40 and the
solenoid valves.

NO : Replace the Overdrive solenoid valve. Refer to

STEP 6. Check A/T control solenoid valve assembly
connector B-40 and PCM connector C-61 <2.4L Engine> or
C-63 <3.0L Engine> for loose, corroded or damaged
terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector.
Q: Are the connectors and terminals in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 7.
NO : Repair or replace the damaged components. Refer to

GROUP 00E, Harness Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

.

STEP 7. Check the harness for an open or short circuit to
ground between A/T control solenoid valve assembly
connector B-40 terminal 5 and PCM connector C-61 <2.4L
Engine> or C-63 <3.0L Engine> terminal 130.
Q: Is the harness wire in good condition?

YES : Replace the PCM.
NO : Repair or replace the harness wire.

STEP 8. Measure the supply voltage at A/T control
solenoid valve assembly connector B-40.
(1) Disconnect solenoid valve assembly harness connector

B-40.

(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.

(3) Measure the voltage between harness connector B-40

terminal 9 and ground.

• The voltage should equal battery positive voltage.

(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the measured voltage battery positive voltage?

YES : Go to Step 11.
NO : Go to Step 9.

STEP 9. Check A/T control relay connector A-17X in the
engine component relay box and A/T control solenoid
valve assembly connector B-40 for loose, corroded or
damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back in the
connector.
Q: Are the connectors and terminals in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 10.
NO : Repair or replace the damaged components. Refer to

STEP 10. Check the harness for an open circuit or short
circuit to ground between A/T control relay connector
A-17X terminal 4 in the engine component relay box and
A/T control solenoid valve assembly connector B-40
terminal 9.
Q: Is the harness wires in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 11.
NO : Repair or replace the harness wire.

STEP 11. Check A/T control solenoid valve assembly
connector B-40 and PCM connector C-61 <2.4L Engine> or

terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector.
Q: Are the connectors and terminals in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 12.
