DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE

STEP 1. Scan tool CAN bus diagnostics
Using scan tool MB991958, diagnose the CAN bus lines.
Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Go to Step 2.

.) After repairing the CAN

bus line, go to Step 2.

STEP 2. Scan tool diagnostic trouble code
Check the shift lever diagnostic trouble code. (Refer to

P.22C-302

.)

Q: Is the DTC set?

YES : Perform the relevant troubleshooting.
NO : Go to Step 3.

STEP 3. Inspection of the TC-SST-ECU connector,
intermediate connector, and shift lever-ECU connector:
B-107, A-13, C-27
Check for the contact with terminals.
Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Go to Step 4.
NO : Repair the defective connector.

STEP 4. Check the wiring harness between B-107
TC-SST-ECU connector terminal No. 17 and C-27 shift
lever-ECU connector terminal No. 16.
Check the communication line for open or short circuit.
Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Go to Step 5.
NO : Repair the wiring harness.

STEP 5. Replace the shift lever assembly, and check if the
diagnostic trouble code is reset.
(1) Replace the shift lever assembly. (Refer to

P.22C-334

.)

(2) Check the DTC.
Q: Is DTC No. P1802 set?

YES : Replace the TC-SST assembly. (Refer to

P.22C-341

.)

NO : Intermittent malfunction. (Refer to GROUP 00

− How

to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction

DTC P1803: Shift Lever System (CAN, LIN Time-out Error)

.

SHIFT LEVER SYSTEM CIRCUIT

Refer to

P.22C-80

.

CAUTION

• If there is any problem in the CAN bus lines,

an incorrect diagnostic trouble code may be
set. Prior to this diagnosis, diagnose the CAN
bus lines.

• Whenever the ECU is replaced, ensure that

the CAN bus lines are normal.

.

DIAGNOSTIC FUNCTION

TC-SST-ECU checks that the communication with
the shift lever-ECU (CAN and LIN) is normal.

.

DESCRIPTIONS OF MONITOR METHODS

The CAN and LIN communication with the shift
lever-ECU is determined to be abnormal.

.

MONITOR EXECUTION

• Continuous
