DIAGNOSTICS − AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE (U240E)
14. MANUAL SHIFTING TEST
The purpose of this manual shifting test is to determine whether
a problem is caused by either mechanical or electrical factors.
Disconnecting the solenoid wire disables electrically-controlled
automatic gear shifting. In this case, operating the shift level is
the only way to shift the transaxle gear. If the gear is not
changed by shift lever operation, it is assumed that there is a
mechanical problem.
(a) Turn the ignition switch OFF.
(b) Disconnect the solenoid wire connector.
(c) Warm up the engine.
(d) Drive the vehicle.
(e) Check the transaxle operation when the shift lever is
moved into L, 2 and D ranges.
