CONSULT Inspection Procedure

DIAGNOSIS BY CONSULT
Notice
1. The CONSULT electrically displays shift timing and lock-up timing (that is, operation timing of each solenoid).
When a noticeable time difference occurs between shift timing which is manifested by shift shock and the CONSULT display, mechanical parts (except solenoids, sensors, etc.) are considered to be malfunctioning. Check mechanical parts using applicable diagnostic procedures.
2. Shift schedule (which implies gear position) displayed on CONSULT and that indicated in Service Manual may differ slightly. This occurs because of the following reasons:

- Actual shift schedule has more or less tolerance or allowance,
- Shift schedule indicated in Service Manual refers to the point where shifts starts, and
- Gear position displayed on CONSULT indicates the point where shifts are completed.

3. Shift solenoid valve "A" or "B" is displayed on CONSULT at the start of shifting while gear position is displayed upon completion of shifting (which is computed by A/T control unit).
