Perform a TCM Diagnostic System Check.
Is the check performed?

1. Install the scan tool.
2. Turn the ignition ON, with the engine OFF.
3. Record and then clear DTCs.
4. Operate the vehicle within the conditions for

setting this DTC as specified in the text.

Does the scan tool display P1710.
1. Turn the ignition OFF.

3. Check the air conditioning compressor signal

circuit for an intermittent open or short and repair
as necessary.

Is a repair necessary?
1. Jumper the air conditioning compressor relay

connector terminal 30 and 87.

2. Turn the air conditioning switch ON.
Is the air conditioning compressor switch value
frequently changing?
1. Turn the ignition OFF.

circuit for an intermittent open and repair as
necessary.

Is a repair complete?
Check the fuse Ef3 for a malfunctioning and replace
as necessary?
Is a repair necessary
Check for a poor connection at the air conditioning
compressor relay and TCM connector and repair the
malfunctioning terminals as necessary.

Circuit Description

The Kickdown Switch is used to signal the TCM that
the driver requires kickdown indicating the driver
pressed the accelerator to the floor. When this switch
is used in high range non-winter mode driving, the
POWER light comes ON.

The DTC sets when the kickdown switch has an inter-
mittent connection or is stuck ON. Kickdown Switch is
closed when other signals indicate otherwise, i.e. the
accelerator pedal is released and the engine is running.
Or the switch is cycling open/closed more rapidly than
the normal operation allows.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

•

DTCs P1703, P1713 and P1719 are not set.

•

Kickdown Switch is closed when other signals indi-
cate otherwise, i.e. the accelerator pedal is released
and the engine is running.

•

The switch is cycling open/closed more rapidly than
normal operation allows : 10 state changes in less
than 30 milliseconds.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

•

Kickdown Switch feature is disabled while the fault
exists.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

•

The DTC will clear when the malfunction has not
occurred for 30 seconds.

DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE (DTC) P1712

KICKDOWN SWITCH CIRCUIT MALFUNCTION

•

A history DTC will clear after 40 TCM power-up
cycles with a warm transmission (>50 °C) and
without a fault.

•

History DTCs can be cleared by using a scan tool.

Diagnostic Aids

•

Typical causes would be an short circuit within the
switch, or a short circuit to ground in the wiring to
the switch.

•

Inspect the wiring for poor electrical connections
at the TCM and at the Kickdown Switch connector.
Look for possible bent, backed out, deformed or
damagednterminals. Check for weak terminal
tension as well. Also check for chafed wires that
could short to bare metal or other wiring. Inspect
for broken wire inside the insulation.

•

If diagnosing for a possible intermittent short or
open condition, move or massage the wiring harness
while observing test equipment for a change.

Test Description

The number(s) below refer to the step number(s) on
the Diagnostic Table.

4. C h e c k s i f t h e k i c k d o w n s i g n a l c i r c u i t i s

malfunctioning.

7. C h e c k s i f t h e k i c k d o w n g r o u n d c i r c u i t i s

malfunctioning.

8. Check resistance between Kickdown Switch termi-

nal 4 and 2.

12. Check connections of other connectors.
