.

DESCRIPTIONS OF MONITOR METHODS

• With the ignition switch ON, the paddle shift 

switch (up) status continues for 60 seconds.

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS (THE MOST 
LIKELY CAUSES FOR THIS CODE TO BE 
SET ARE:)

• Malfunction of the Paddle shift switch (up) system 

circuit

• Damaged harness or connector

• Malfunction of the TCM

• Malfunction of the paddle shift switch

DIAGNOSIS

STEP 1. Check the TCM terminal voltage.
[C-38 TCM connector (vehicle side, connected)]
Measure the voltage between C-38 No. 9 and body ground.

• Ignition switch: ON

• Paddle (ON) operated: 1V or less

• Other than above: battery positive voltage

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Go to Step 2.
NO :  Go to Step 3.

STEP 2. Check the TCM connector, vehicle-side wiring 
harness connector pin terminal, and the connection 
status.
Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Go to Step 6.
NO :  Repair or replace the failure section.

STEP 3. Check between the TCM connector and the paddle 
shift switch (up).
Check for continuity between C-38 TCM connector terminal No. 
9 and C-208 paddle shift switch (up).
NOTE: Prior to the wiring harness inspection, check the inter-
mediate connectors C-34 and repair that if necessary.

• Between C-38 terminal No. 9 and C-208 terminal No. 1: 

Continuity exists.

When the continuity check result is OK, check that the wiring 
harness is not shorted to the body and other wiring harness.
Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Go to Step 4.
NO :  Repair or replace the failure section.

STEP 4. Check the paddle shift switch (up).
Refer to 

P.23C-276

.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Go to Step 5.
NO :  Repair or replace the failure section.

STEP 5. Check the TCM connector, vehicle-side wiring 
harness connector pin terminal, and the connection 
status.
Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Replace the TCM.
NO :  Repair or replace the failure section.

STEP 6. Erase the DTC code, and drive the vehicle for a 
while.
Check that the normal code is displayed.
Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : The procedure is complete.
NO :  Return to START.

DTC P0816: Paddle Shift Switch (Down) System

.

PADDLE SHIFT SWITCH (DOWN) 
SYSTEM CIRCUIT

Refer to 

P.23C-93

.

.

DESCRIPTIONS OF MONITOR METHODS

• With the ignition switch ON, the paddle shift 

switch (down) status continues for 60 seconds.

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS (THE MOST 
LIKELY CAUSES FOR THIS CODE TO BE 
SET ARE:)

• Malfunction of the Paddle shift switch (down) sys-

tem circuit

• Damaged harness or connector

• Malfunction of the TCM

• Malfunction of the paddle shift switch

DIAGNOSIS

STEP 1. Check the TCM terminal voltage.
[C-37 TCM connector (vehicle side, connected)]
Measure the voltage between C-37 terminal No. 32 and body 
ground.

• Ignition switch: ON

• Paddle (ON) operated: 1V or less

• Other than above: battery positive voltage

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Go to Step 2.
NO :  Go to Step 3.

STEP 2. Check the TCM connector, vehicle-side wiring 
harness connector pin terminal, and the connection 
status.
Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Go to Step 6.
NO :  Repair or replace the failure section.

STEP 3. Check between the TCM connector and the paddle 
shift switch (down).
Check for continuity between C-37 TCM connector and C-208 
paddle shift switch (down).
NOTE: Prior to the wiring harness inspection, check the inter-
mediate connectors C-34 and repair that if necessary.

• Between C-37 terminal No. 32 and C-208 terminal No. 3:
