Diagnosis Procedure

1.CHECK TCM INPUT SIGNALS

With CONSULT

1. Turn ignition switch ON.
2. Select "TRANSMISSION" "DATA MONITOR".
3. Select the "D position switch", "N position switch", "R position switch", "P position switch", "2 position switch", and "1 position switch".
4. Shift the selector lever to the entire position from P to 1, and check the ON/OFF operation of each monitor item.   

Without CONSULT.

1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
2. Disconnect the TCM connector.
3. Turn ignition switch ON.
4. Shift the selector lever to the entire position from P to 1, and check the voltage between the TCM harness connector terminal and ground.  

Is the check result normal?
