- Selector shock is large

- Start  is  slow

- Acceleration is slow

• Engine coolant temperature when engine start: Temp. < 

−35°C (−31°F)

- Selector shock is large

- Start  is  slow

- Acceleration is slow

DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE

1.

PREPARATION BEFORE WORK

If another "DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE" occurs just before, turn ignition switch OFF and wait for at

least 10 seconds, then perform the next test.

>> GO TO 2.

2.

PERFORM DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE

1. Start the engine and wait for 10 seconds or more.

2. Check the first trip DTC.
Is “P0712” detected?

YES

>> Go to 

TM-120, "Diagnosis Procedure"

.

NO-1 >> To check malfunction symptom before repair: Refer to 

GI-44, "Intermittent Incident"

.

NO-2 >> Confirmation after repair: INSPECTION END

Diagnosis Procedure

INFOID:0000000011279342

1.

CHECK CIRCUIT BETWEEN TCM AND CVT UNIT

1. Turn ignition switch OFF.

2. Disconnect TCM connector and CVT unit connector. 

3. Check continuity between TCM harness connector terminal and ground.

Is the inspection result normal?

YES

>> GO TO 2.

CHECK CVT UNIT TERMINAL CODE ASSEMBLY

Check continuity between CVT unit connector terminal and ground.

Is the inspection result normal?

YES

>> GO TO 3.

NO

>> There is a malfunction of the CVT unit terminal code assembly. Replace the transaxle assembly.

Refer to 

TM-220, "Removal and Installation"

.

3.

CHECK CVT FLUID TEMPERATURE SENSOR

Check resistance between CVT unit connector terminals.

Is the inspection result normal?

YES

>> INSPECTION END

NO

>> There is a malfunction of the CVT fluid temperature sensor. Replace the transaxle assembly.
