CHECK INPUT SIGNAL FOR TCM USING Vehicle
Diagnostic Interface.
Connect the connectors to TCM, throttle position sensor
and ECM.
Connect the Vehicle Diagnostic Interface to
data link connector.
Turn the ignition switch to ON (engine OFF).
Turn the Vehicle Diagnostic
Interface switch to ON.
Throttle fully closed.
Read the data of throttle position sensor using Vehicle
Diagnostic Interface.
• | Throttle
position sensor input signal is indicated.
|
Is the value voltage 0.2 — 1.0 V?
CHECK INPUT SIGNAL FOR TCM USING Vehicle
Diagnostic Interface.
Throttle fully open.
Note |
Must be changed correspondingly
with the accelerator pedal operation (from “released” to “depressed” position). |
Is the value voltage 4.2 — 4.7 V?
CHECK INPUT SIGNAL FOR TCM USING Vehicle
Diagnostic Interface (THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR POWER SUPPLY).

Even if the AT OIL TEMP warning light
blinks, the circuit has returned to a normal condition at this time.
A temporary poor contact of the connector or harness may be the
cause. Repair the harness or connector in throttle position sensor
circuit.
CHECK POOR CONTACT.
Is there poor contact
in throttle position sensor circuit?
Repair the poor contact.
