DTC Detecting Condition and Trouble Area






DTC Confirmation Procedure

1) Connect scan tool to DLC with ignition switch OFF.
2) Clear DTCs in TCM and ECM memories by using scan tool.
3) Start engine and transfer position switch to "4L" position (motor-shift type 4WD model).
4) Keep engine running at idle speed for 10 seconds or more with select lever "D" range.
5) Start vehicle and increase vehicle speed to about 50 km/h (31 mile/h) in "4L" position for 2 minutes.
6) Stop vehicle.
7) Check DTC, pending DTC and freeze-frame data.

DTC Troubleshooting

1. Vehicle speed signal check

Check DTC in ECM, ABS hydraulic unit/control module and ESP(R) hydraulic unit/control module referring to DTC Check DTC Check
, DTC Check DTC Check
and DTC Check DTC Check.

Is there DTC P P0500: Vehicle speed sensor (VSS) malfunction in ECM and/or DTC C1021, C1022, C1025, C1026, C1031, C1032, C1035 and/or C1036 in ABS hydraulic unit/control module and ESP(R) hydraulic unit/control module?
YES -
Go to applicable DTC diag. flow.
NO -
Go to Step 2.

2.
Was "A/T System Check" performed?
YES -
Go to Step 3.
NO -
Go to A/T System Check A/T System Check.

3.
Do you have SUZUKI scan tool?
YES -
Go to Step 4.
NO -
Go to Step 5.

4. 4L/N switch and its circuit check

Connect SUZUKI scan tool to DLC with ignition switch OFF.
Turn ignition switch ON.
