DTC Troubleshooting: P0914 (162-5)

DTC P0914:
 Shift Actuator Motor Rotating Pulse Sensor Signal Circuit Malfunction
  1. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).
  1. Clear the DTCs with the HDS.
  1. Change the shift lever to D position, 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 OFF.
  1. Disconnect the shift actuator motor 6P connector.
  1. Turn the ignition switch 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. (A few DTCs related with open circuit will be stored at this time.)■
  1. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
  1. Disconnect the change actuator subharness B 8P connector.
  1. Check for continuity between 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.■
NO -
Go to Step 12 .
  1. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).

  1. Measure 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.■
NO -
Go to Step 14 .
  1. Turn the ignition switch OFF.

  1. Check for continuity between shift actuator motor 6P connector terminal No. 5 and change actuator subharness B 8P connector terminal No. 2.
Is there continuity?
YES -
Remove the clutch actuator assembly, and check for change actuator subharness A. If the wire harness is OK, substitute a known-good TCM, then recheck. If the symptom/indication goes away with a known-good TCM, replace the original TCM.
NO -
Repair an open in the wire of the change actuator subharness B.■
