TROUBLESHOOTING

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION

23A-71

OPERATION
If a fail-safe operation is activated, the A/T control
relay shuts off the power supply to the solenoid valve
in accordance with the signal from the A/T-ECU.

DIAGNOSIS CODE SET CONDITION
Code No.P1788 (P1751) will be set if the A/T control
voltage is less than 7 V after the ignition switch is
turned on.
If code No.P1788 (P1751) is set, the transmission
will be held in 3rd gear.

TROUBLESHOOTING

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION

23A-74

OPERATION
Always power is supplied to the ECU to prevent the
reset of A/T-ECU memory when the ignition switch is
turned to the LOCK (OFF) position.

DIAGNOSIS CODE SET CONDITION
If the battery voltage is 10 V or more and back-up
voltage is less than 6 V while the ignition switch is
ON position for 2 seconds or more, it is judged that
there is a open circuit in the back-up line and diagno-
sis code No. P1790 is set.

PROBABLE CAUSES

• Damaged harness wires and connectors

• Malfunction of the A/T-ECU

DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE

STEP 1. Measure the voltage at A/T-ECU
connector C-12.
(1) Measure the voltage between A/T-ECU

connector C-12 terminal No.38 and earth.

OK: System voltage

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 4.

NO :

Go to Step 2.

STEP 2. Connectors check: A-115 intermediate
connector, C-12 A/T-ECU connector.
Check for the contact with terminals.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 3.

NO :

Repair the defective connector.

STEP 3. Check the harness between A/T-ECU
connector C-12 terminal No.38 and fusible link
(23).
Check the power supply line for short or open circuit.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 5.

NO :

(3) Check the diagnosis code.

Q: Is the diagnosis code set?

YES :

Go to Step 1.

NO :

The inspection is complete.

Code No.P1901: CAN signal time-out (Engine-ECU)

CAUTION

• If diagnosis code P1901 is set in the A/T-ECU,

always diagnose the CAN main bus line. If
there is any fault in the CAN bus lines, an
incorrect diagnosis code may be set.

• Whenever the ECU is replaced, ensure that

the communication circuit is normal.

DIAGNOSIS CODE SET CONDITIONS

Current trouble

• Connector(s) or wiring harness in the CAN bus

lines between the engine-ECU and the A/T-ECU,
the power supply system to the engine-ECU, the
engine-ECU itself, or the A/T-ECU may be defec-
tive.

Past trouble

• Carry out diagnosis with particular emphasis on

connector(s) or wiring harness in the CAN bus
lines between the engine-ECU and the A/T-ECU,
and the power supply system to the engine-ECU.
For diagnosis procedures, refer to "How to cope
with past trouble" (Refer to GROUP 00, How to
Use Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points ).

NOTE: For a past trouble, you may not find it by the

M.U.T.-III CAN bus diagnostics even if there is
any failure in CAN bus lines. In this case, refer to
GROUP 00, How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspec-
tion Service Points

−

How to Cope with Intermit-

tent Malfunctions ). and check the CAN bus lines.
