Test

1. HDS DLC - Connect

2. Shift Solenoid Valve - HDS Function Test

1. Select Shift Solenoid Valve A or B in the Miscellaneous Test Menu with the HDS.
2. Check that shift solenoid valve A or B operates with the HDS. A clicking sound should be heard.
   • If a clicking sound is heard, the solenoid valve is OK.

     The test is complete, disconnect the HDS.

   • If no clicking sound is heard, go to the next step, and test the shift solenoid valve.

3. Secondary Valve Body - Remove

4. Shift Solenoid Valve - Resistance Check

1. Measure the resistance of shift solenoid valves A and B between connector terminals No. 1 and No. 2.

Standard: 13.8－17.1 Ω

• If the resistance is out of the standard, replace the secondary valve body.
• If the resistance is within the standard, go to the next step, and check the shift solenoid valve operation.

5. Shift Solenoid Valve - Operation Check

1. Connect a jumper wire from the positive battery terminal to shift solenoid valve A or B connector terminal No. 1, and connect another jumper wire from the negative battery terminal to connector terminal No. 2.
   • If a clicking sound is heard, repair the wire between the defective shift solenoid valve and the PCM, then go to the next step, and install the secondary valve body.
