3 1st trip freeze frame data
Both 1st trip freeze frame data and freeze frame data (along with the DTCs) are cleared when the ECM
memory is erased.
HOW TO ERASE DTCNBAT0016S02The diagnostic trouble code can be erased by CONSULT-II, GST or ECM DIAGNOSTIC TEST MODE as
described following.
IIf the battery terminal is disconnected, the diagnostic trouble code will be lost within 24 hours.
IWhen you erase the DTC, using CONSULT-II or GST is easier and quicker than switching the mode
selector on the ECM.
The following emission-related diagnostic information is cleared from the ECM memory when erasing DTC
related to OBD-II. For details, refer to EC-60, ªEmission-related Diagnostic Informationº.

HOW TO ERASE DTC (WITH CONSULT-II)NBAT0016S03IIf a DTC is displayed for both ECM and TCM, it needs to be erased for both ECM and TCM.
1. If the ignition switch stays ªONº after repair work, be sure to turn ignition switch ªOFFº once. Wait at least
5 seconds and then turn it ªONº (engine stopped) again.
2. Turn CONSULT-II ªONº and touch ªA/Tº.
3. Touch ªSELF-DIAG RESULTSº.
4. Touch ªERASEº. (The DTC in the TCM will be erased.) Then touch ªBACKº twice.
5. Touch ªENGINEº.
6. Touch ªSELF-DIAG RESULTSº.
7. Touch ªERASEº. (The DTC in the ECM will be erased.)

HOW TO ERASE DTC (WITH GST)NBAT0016S041. If the ignition switch stays ªONº after repair work, be sure to turn ignition switch ªOFFº once. Wait at least
5 seconds and then turn it ªONº (engine stopped) again.
2. Perform ªOBD-II SELF-DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE (No Tools)º. Refer to AT-46. (The engine warm-up
step can be skipped when performing the diagnosis only to erase the DTC.)
3. Select Mode 4 with Generic Scan Tool (GST). For details, refer to EC-95, ªDESCRIPTIONº.
HOW TO ERASE DTC (NO TOOLS)NBAT0016S051. If the ignition switch stays ªONº after repair work, be sure to turn ignition switch ªOFFº once. Wait at least
5 seconds and then turn it ªONº (engine stopped) again.
2. Perform ªTCM SELF-DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE (No Tools)º. Refer to AT-46. (The engine warm-up step
can be skipped when performing the diagnosis only to erase the DTC.)

Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL)=NBAT0183The MIL is located on the instrument panel.
1. The MIL will light up when the ignition switch is turned ON
without the engine running. This is a bulb check.
IIf the MIL does not light up, refer to EL-114, ªSchematicº.
(Or refer to EC-648, ªWiring Diagramº.)
2. When the engine is started, the MIL should go off.
If the MIL remains on, the on board diagnostic system has
detected an engine system malfunction. For detail, refer to
EC-59, ªIntroductionº.
CONSULT-IINBAT0184After performing ªSELF-DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE (WITH CON-
SULT-II)º (AT-37), place check marks for results on the ªDIAGNOS-
TIC WORKSHEETº, AT-55. Reference pages are provided follow-
ing the items.
NOTICE:
1) The CONSULT-II electrically displays shift timing and lock-up
timing (that is, operation timing of each solenoid).
Check for time difference between actual shift timing and the
CONSULT-II display. If the difference is noticeable, mechani-
cal parts (except solenoids, sensors, etc.) may be malfunction-
ing. Check mechanical parts using applicable diagnostic pro-
cedures.
2) Shift schedule (which implies gear position) displayed on
CONSULT-II and that indicated in Service Manual may differ
slightly. This occurs because of the following reasons:
IActual shift schedule has more or less tolerance or allowance,
IShift schedule indicated in Service Manual refers to the point
where shifts start, and
IGear position displayed on CONSULT-II indicates the point
where shifts are completed.
3) Shift solenoid valve ªAº or ªBº is displayed on CONSULT-II at
the start of shifting. Gear position is displayed upon completion
of shifting (which is computed by TCM).
4) Additional CONSULT-II information can be found in the Opera-
tion Manual supplied with the CONSULT-II unit.
SAT014K
SELF-DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE (WITH CONSULT-II)NBAT0184S011. Turn on CONSULT-II and touch ªENGINEº for OBD-II detected
items or touch ªA/Tº for TCM self-diagnosis.
If A/T is not displayed, check TCM power supply and ground
circuit. Refer to AT-92. If result is NG, refer to EL-9, ªSche-
maticº.
