Inspection of TCM and Its Circuits

Inspection of TCM and Its Circuits

TCM and its circuits can be checked at TCM wiring connectors by measuring voltage and resistance.

NOTE:

If you connect a voltmeter or ohmmeter directly to the ECM terminals by removing the TCM connectors, you can damage the TCM.

Never connect a voltmeter or an ohmmeter directly to any terminal on the TCM by disconnecting the TCM connectors.

Voltage Check

1) Remove TCM (1) from vehicle. Service and Repair.
2) Connect TCM connectors (2) to TCM.
3) Check voltage and/or pulse signal at each terminal of connectors connected using voltmeter (3) and oscilloscope (4).

NOTE:
- As each terminal voltage is affected by battery voltage, confirm that it is 11 V or more when ignition switch is ON.
- Voltage with asterisk (*) cannot be measured by voltmeter because it is pulse signal. Check it with oscilloscope if necessary.
- *1: Reference voltage
