Control Module: Testing and Inspection

TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE (TCM) INSPECTION
1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position, and inspect the TCM terminal voltage, referring to the Terminal Voltage Chart.
- If any TCM terminal voltage is incorrect, inspect the related input of output devices and wiring.
- If no problem is found, replace the TCM.

Note: Use the ground of terminal AP of the TCM when measuring terminal voltage as an error may occur when the negative (-) lead of the circuit tester is connected to ground.
