  1. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
  1. Clear the DTCs with the HDS.
  1. Change the shift lever to D, then operate the shift lever between + and − positions.
  1. Check for DTCs with the HDS.
Is DTC P0914 indicated?
YES -
Go to Step 5 .
NO -
Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time.■
  1. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).

  1. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
  1. Check for DTCs with the HDS.
Is DTC P0914 indicated?
YES -
Go to Step 9 .
NO -
Replace the transmission shift change actuator; R18A2 engine model, L13Z1 engine model. (A few DTCs related with open circuit will be stored at this time.)■
  1. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
  1. Disconnect change actuator subharness B 8P connector (R18A2 engine model) or TCM connector B (40P) (L13Z1 engine model).
  1. Check for continuity between the shift actuator motor 6P connector terminal No. 5 and body ground.
Is there continuity?
YES -
Repair a short to ground in the wire of the change actuator subharness B (R18A2 engine model) or change actuator subharness A (L13Z1 engine model).■
NO -
Go to Step 12 .
  1. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).

  1. Measure the voltage between shift actuator motor 6P connector terminal No. 5 and body ground.
Is there battery voltage?
YES -
Repair a short to power in the wire of the change actuator subharness B (R18A2 engine model) or change actuator subharness A (L13Z1 engine model).■
NO -
Go to Step 14 .
  1. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).

  1. Check for continuity between shift actuator motor 6P connector terminal No. 5 and change actuator subharness B 8P connector terminal No. 2 (R18A2 engine model) or TCM connector B9 (L13Z1 engine model).
Is there continuity?
YES -
NO -
Repair an open in the wire of the change actuator subharness B (R18A2 engine model) or change actuator subharness A (L13Z1 engine model).■
