AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE (M13 ENGINE) 7B1-63
Troubleshooting
Step Action Yes No
1Was “Automatic Transaxle Diagnostic Flow
Tabl e ” in this section performed?
Go to Step 2. Go to “Automatic Tran-
saxle Diagnostic Flow
Ta bl e ” in this section.
2 Check Output Shaft Speed Sensor (VSS)
Power Circuit.
1) Turn ignition switch OFF.
2) Disconnect output shaft speed sensor con-
nector.
3) Turn ignition switch ON.
4) Measure voltage between “BLK/RED” wire
terminal of disconnected output shaft
speed sensor harness side connector and
ground.
Is it 10 – 14 V?
Go to Step 3. “BLK/RED” wire open or
shorted to ground.
3 Check Output Shaft Speed Sensor (VSS)
Ground Circuit.
1) Turn ignition switch OFF.
2) Check continuity between “BRN” wire ter-
minal of disconnected output shaft speed
sensor harness side connector and ground.
Is continuity indicated?
Go to Step 4. “BRN” wire open.
4 Check Output Shaft Speed Sensor (VSS) Sig-
nal Circuit for short.
1) Disconnect TCM connectors.
2) Check continuity between “YEL” wire termi-
nal of disconnected output shaft speed
sensor harness side connector and ground.
Is continuity indicated?
“YEL” wire shorted to
ground.
Go to Step 5.
5 Check Output Shaft Speed Sensor (VSS) Sig-
nal Circuit for open.
1) Check continuity between “YEL” wire termi-
nal of disconnected output shaft speed
sensor harness side connector and termi-
nal E12-25 of disconnected harness side
TCM connector.
Is continuity indicated?
Go to Step 6. “YEL” wire open.
6 Inspect Output Shaft Speed Sensor (VSS).
Inspect output shaft speed sensor referring to
“Output Shaft Speed Sensor (VSS) Inspection”
in this section.
Is check result satisfactory?
Go to Step 7. Replace output shaft
speed sensor.
