CONSULT-IINJAT0022After performing ªSELF-DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE (WITH CON-
SULT-II)º (AT-39), place check marks for results on the ªDIAGNOS-
TIC WORKSHEETº, AT-71. 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:
+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) 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.

SELF-DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE (WITH CONSULT-II)NJAT0022S021. Turn on CONSULT-II and touch ªA/Tº for TCM self-diagnosis.
If A/T is not displayed, check TCM power supply and ground
circuit. Refer to AT-118. If result is NG, refer to EL-10, ªPOWER
SUPPLY ROUTINGº.

2. Touch ªSELF-DIAG RESULTSº.
Display shows malfunction experienced since the last erasing
operation.
CONSULT-II performs ªREAL TIME DIAGº.
Also, any malfunction detected while in this mode will be dis-
played at real time.

2. Connect the handy type vacuum pump to the throttle opener
and apply vacuum þ25.3 kPa (þ253 mbar, þ190 mmHg, þ7.48
inHg). (If throttle opener is equipped)
3. Disconnect the throttle position switch harness connector.
4. Turn ignition switch to ªONº position.
5. Check continuity of the closed throttle position switch.
Continuity should exist.
(If continuity does not exist, check throttle opener and
closed throttle position switch. Then increase vacuum
until closed throttle position switch shows continuity.)
