DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM
The Electronically Controlled Transaxle has built–in
self–diagnostic functions. If the malfunction occurs
in the system, the ECM stores the diagnostic trouble
code in memory and the O/D OFF (Overdrive OFF)
indicator light blinks to inform the driver. The diagnos–
tic trouble code stored in memory can be read out by
the following procedure.
O/D OFF INDICATOR LIGHT INSPECTION
1. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
2. Check if the O/D OFF indicator light lights up when
the O/D main switch is pushed out to OFF and goes
off when the O/D main switch is pushed in to ON.
HINT:
If the O/D OFF indicator light does not light up or
stay on all the time, carry out the check for 'O/D
OFF Indicator Light Circuit" on page AX–102.
If the O/D OFF indicator light blinks, a trouble code
is stored in the ECM memory.
DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE CHECK
1. Turn the ignition switch ON, but do not start the
engine.
2. Push in the O/D main switch to ON.
HINT: Warning and diagnostic trouble codes can be
read only when the O/D main switch is ON. If it is
OFF, the 0/D OFF indicator light up will light continu–
ously and will not blink.
3. Using SST, connect terminals TE1 and El of the
DLC1 or DLC2.
