TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS
Revision: November 20092006 QX56
CONSULT-II Function (A/T)ECS00CEP
CONSULT-II can display each diagnostic item using the diagnostic test modes shown following.
CONSULT-II REFERENCE VALUE
NOTICE:
1. The CONSULT-II electrically displays shift timing and lock-up timing (that is, operation timing of each sole-
noid).
Check for time difference between actual shift timing and the CONSULT-II display. If the difference is
noticeable, mechanical parts (except solenoids, sensors, etc.) may be malfunctioning. Check mechanical
parts using applicable diagnostic procedures.
2. Shift schedule (which implies gear position) displayed on CONSULT-II and that indicated in Service Man- ual may differ slightly. This occurs because of the following reasons:
–Actual shift schedule has more or less tolerance or allowance,
–Shift schedule indicated in Service Manual refers to the point where shifts start, and
–Gear position displayed on CONSULT-II indicates the point where shifts are completed.
3. Display of solenoid valves on CONSULT-II changes at the start of shifting, while gear position is displayed upon completion of shifting (which is computed by TCM).
TCM diagnostic mode Description
WORK SUPPORT Supports inspections and adjustments. Commands are transmitted to the TCM for setting the status
suitable for required operation, input/output signals are received from the TCM and received data is
displayed.
SELF-DIAG RESULTS Displays TCM self-diagnosis results.
DATA MONITOR Displays TCM input/output data in real time.
CAN DIAG SUPPORT MNTR The result of transmit/receive diagnosis of CAN communication can be read.
ACTIVE TEST Operation of electrical loads can be checked by sending drive signal to them.
FUNCTION TEST Conducted by CONSULT-II instead of a technician to determine whether each system is
“OK ” or
“ NG ”.
ECU PART NUMBER TCM part number can be read.
Item name Condition Display value (Approx.)
ATF TEMP SE 1 0°C (32 ° F) - 20 °C (68 °F) - 80 °C (176 °F) 3.3 - 2.7 - 0.9 V

CONSULT-II SETTING PROCEDURE
CAUTION:
If CONSULT-II is used with no connection of CONSULT-II CONVERTER, malfunctions might be
detected in self-diagnosis depending on control unit which carry out CAN communication.

For details, refer to the separate “CONSULT-II Operations Man-
ual ”.
1. Turn ignition switch “ OFF”.
2. Connect CONSULT-II and CONSULT-II CONVERTER to data link connector, which is located in instrument lower panel on
driver side.
3. Turn ignition switch “ ON”. (Do not start engine.)
4. Touch “START (NISSAN BASED VHCL) ”.
5. Touch “A/T”.
If “A/T ” is not indicated, go to GI-40, "
CONSULT-II Data Link
Connector (DLC) Circuit" .
6. Perform each diagnostic test mode according to each service procedure.
SELF-DIAGNOSTIC RESULT MODE
Operation Procedure
After performing AT- 8 6 , "SELF-DIAGNOSTIC RESULT MODE" , place check marks for results on the AT- 4 6 ,
"DIAGNOSTIC WORKSHEET" . Reference pages are provided following the items.
1. Perform “CONSULT-II SETTING PROCEDURE ”. Refer to AT- 8 6 , "
