AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION — Electric Control
INSPECT TERMINAL ECT VOLTAGE
1. Inspect the throttle position sensor system.
(a) Turn the ignition switch to ON. Do not start the engine.
(b) Connect a voltmeter to the DG terminal and body ground.
(c) While slowly depressing the accelerator pedal, check that DG terminal voltage rises in sequence.
If the voltage is in proportion to the throttle opening angle and does not change, there is a malfunction with the throttle position sensor or circuit.
2. Inspect brake signal.
(a) Depress the accelerator pedal to where DG terminal indicates 8V.
(b) Depress the brake pedal and check the voltage reading for DG terminal.
Brake pedal depressed ... 0V
Brake pedal released ...... 8V
If not as indicated, there is a malfunction with either the stop light switch or circuit.
3. Inspect each up shift position.
(a) Warm up the engine.
Coolant temperature: 80°C (176°F)
(b) Turn the OD switch ON.
(c) Place the pattern select switch in "Normal" and the shift selector in "D" range.
(d) During a road test (above 10 km/h or 6 mph) check that voltage at the DG terminal is as indicated below for each up-shift position.
