11. DIAGNOSTIC CODE CHECKAfter repeating ignition switch ON±OFF operation (ON: wait 20 secs., OFF: wait 20 secs.) 5 times, check
the diagnostic codes. If only code 41 is displayed, proceed to step [ 12 ]. If a code other than code 41 is
displayed, return to step [ 7 ] and troubleshoot the displayed malfuncti\
on code.
NOTICE: When connecting the battery after clearing the malfunction code,\
always do it with the ignition
switch in LOCK position. When the battery has been reconnected, turn the ignition \
switch to ACC or ON
position after at least 2 seconds have elapsed.
If the battery is reconnected with the ignition switch in ACC or ON positi\
on, or the ignition switch is turned
ACC or ON within 2 seconds of connecting the battery, it is possible that the diagnosis system will not oper-
ate normally.
12. CLEARING OF MALFUNCTION CODE 41 STORED IN MEMORY Clear malfunction code 41 stored in memory. This operation is not necessary only in case that the power
source voltage returns to normal.
13. CONFIRMATION TEST Check the warning light again and confirm that all the malfunctions have been\
repaired. If the warning light
indicates an abnormality, repeat the operation again from step [ 2 ]. If code 41 is output at st\
ep [ 3 ], skip
steps [ 4 ] and [ 5 ] and proceed to step [ 7 ]. AB±27

CLEARING OF DIAGNOSTIC CODE
1. CLEARING OF MALFUNCTION CODE(EXCEPT CODE 41)
Remove the battery negative (±) terminal or ECU±B fuse for
10 seconds or more with the ignition switch OFF.
NOTICE: When connecting the battery after cancelling
the malfunction code, always do it with the ignition
switch in LOCK position. If the battery is connected with
the ignition switch in ACC or ON position, there are cases
when the diagnosis system does not operate normally.
HINT:
wCode 41 cannot be cleared by this method.
wThe lower the temperature, the longer the battery
negative (±) terminal must be left off.
wOther memory systems (clock, audio system) will also
be cancelled out (See page AB±2).
2. CLEARING OF MALFUNCTION CODE 41 STORED IN MEMORY
(a) Connect service wires to terminals Tc and AB of theTDCL.
(b) Turn the ignition switch ACC or ON and wait approx. 6 seconds.
(c) S ta rtin g with th e Tc te rmin a l, ap p ly bo d y gr ound
alternately to terminal Tc and terminal AB twice each in
cycles of 1.0 ± 0.5 seconds. Finally, keep applying body
ground to terminal Tc.
HINT: When alternating between body ground of terminals Tc
and AB release one from body ground while applying it to the
other terminal. The time interval in between must be within
the following conditions. If it is out of the conditions, code 41
will not be cleared.
(d) After several seconds, when the airbag warning light
starts to blink in a 64 msec. cycle, cancellation is
completed.
HINT: This method clears not only code No. 41, but also other
malfunction codes all at once.
Except when instructed by the troubleshooting procedure,
use this method only when the repair procedure is completed
(See page AB±25).

If a malfunction code is displayed during the diagnostic code check, check\
the circuit listed for that code in the
table below (Proceed to the page given for that circuit).

HINT:
*1 When the airbag warning light remains lit up and the diagnostic code is the normal code, this means asource voltage drop.
*2 Code 22 is recorded when a malfunction occurs in the airbag warning light sy\
stem. If an open malfunction occurs in the airbag warning light system, the airbag warning light does not light up, so that until the mal-
function is repaired, the diagnostic code (including code 22) cannot be confir\
med.
*3 When a malfunction occurs in the airbag system, malfunction codes 11 to 31 are output. After repairing the malfunction indicated by malfunction codes 11 to 31, codes 11 to 31 are cleared from the memory, but
code 41 is output instead. Once the malfunction has been detected, the airba\
g warning light will remain
lit up until code 41 is cleared, even though the malfunction has been re\
paired.

CHECK TERMINAL TT OUTPUT
VOLTAGE
AT00R±01
When a voltmeter is connected to the DLC1, the following
items can be checked.
1. Throttle position sensor signal
2. Brake signal
3. Shift position signal
1. VOLTMETER CONNECTION Connect the positive (+) probe of the voltmeter to terminal T
T
and the negative (±) probe to terminal E1 of the DLC2.
HINT: If a voltmeter with small internal resistance is used, the
correct voltage will not be indicated, so use a voltmeter with
an internal resistance of at least 10 k
.
2. TURN IGNITION SWITCH TO ON (DO NOT START THE
ENGINE)
3. CHECK THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR SIGNAL Check if the voltage changes from approximately 0 V to
approximately 8 V when the accelerator pedal is gradually
depressed from the fully closed position.
4. CHECK BRAKE SIGNAL (LOCK±UP CUT SIGNAL)
(a) Open the throttle valve fully to apply approximately 8 V to terminal T
T.
(b) In this condition, check terminal T
T voltage when the brake
pedal is depressed and released.
TT terminal voltage:
0 V (When brake pedal is depressed)
8 V (When brake pedal is released)
5. START ENGINE
6. CHECK SHIFT POSITION SIGNAL (VEHICLE SPEED ABOVE 60 KM/H OR 37 MPH)
Check up±shifting together with terminal T
T voltage.
HINT: Check for light shocks from up±shifting and for
changes in the tachometer.
 Gear Position Terminal TT output voltage 1st GearBelow 0.5 V 

2nd Gear1.5 ~
2 6 V
 3rd Gear3.5 ~ 4.6 V
 3rd Lock±up4.5 ~ 5.9 V
 O/D5.5 ~ 6.9 V
 O/D Lock±up6.5 ~ 7.9 V
If terminal TT output voltage check cannot be performed, per-
form the check of terminal T
T circuit on page AT±120.

PROBLEM SYMPTOM CONFIRMATION
AT09U±07
Taking into consideration the results of the customer problem analysis, try to\
reproduce the symptoms of
the trouble. If the problem is that the transmission does not up±shift, \
does not down±shift, or the shift point
is too high or too low, conduct the following road test referring to the automatic shift schedu\
le and simulate
the problem symptoms.
ROAD TEST
AT09V±05NOTICE: Perform the test at normal ATF operating temperature
50±80 5C (122±176 5F).
1. D POSITION TEST (NORM AND PWR PATTERN)
Shift into the D position and fully depress the accelerator ped-
al and check the following points:
(a) Check up±shift operation
1" 2, 2 "3 and 3 "O/D up±shift takes place, and shift point
should conform to those shown in the automatic shift sched-
ule (See page AT±45)
Conduct a test under both Normal and Power patterns.
HINT:
w O/D up±shift or lock±up will not occur when the engine
coolant temp. is below 60
C (140
F) and speed is under
60 km/h (37 mph), or if there is a 10 km/h (6 mph)
difference between the set cruise control speed.
w 3rd up±shift or lock±up will not occur when engine
coolant temp. is below 35
C (95
F) and speed is under
40 km/h (25 mph).
(b) Check for shift shock and slip. In the same manner, check the shock and slip at the 1 "2,
2 " 3 and 3 "O/D up±shifts.
