CLUTCH SWITCH INSPECTION

NOTE: Perform the following inspection only when directed.

Continuity Inspection
1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
2. Remove the clutch switch. (See CLUTCH PEDAL REMOVAL/INSTALLATION).







3. Inspect for continuity between the clutch switch terminals B and D using an ohmmeter.
- If the clutch switch is okay, but the PID value is out of specification, perform the "Circuit Open/Short Inspection".
- If not as specified, replace the clutch switch. (See CLUTCH PEDAL REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)

Circuit Open/Short Inspection

1. Disconnect the PCM connector. (See PCM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)




2. Inspect the following harness for open or short circuit. (Continuity check)

Open circuit
- Clutch switch terminal B (harness-side) and PCM terminal 17 (harness-side).
- Clutch switch terminal D (harness-side) and body GND.

Short circuit
- Clutch switch terminal B (harness-side) and power supply.
- Clutch switch terminal B (harness-side) and body GND.
