How to Troubleshoot the i-SHIFT System
i-SHIFT Indicator
Under normal conditions, the i-SHIFT indicator (A) comes on when the ignition switch is turned to the ON (II) position, then goes off after the engine is started. This indicates that the LED and its circuit are operating correctly.
If there is a failure in the system after the engine is started, the i-SHIFT indicator will stay on.
The i-SHIFT indicator comes on under certain conditions even if the i-SHIFT system is working normally. Here are some examples:
  • When you use high-powered wireless equipment in the vehicle.
  • When the battery voltage suddenly drops below 9 volts or rises above 16 volts.
After the i-SHIFT indicator comes on, it stays on until you turn the ignition switch off.
NOTE: When I become i-SHIFT indicator ON by clutch temperature abnormality, there are both ignition switch off and trouble to turn off the light.
