1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
2. Turn the engine switch on (IG).
3. Turn the Techstream on.
4. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Data List.
5. Read the values displayed on the Techstream.

   OK

   Techstream Display	Shift Lever	Specified Condition
   Neutral Position SW Signal	P or N	ON
   	Except P or N	OFF
   Shift SW Status (R Range)	R	ON
   	Except R	OFF
   Shift SW Status (P Range)	P	ON
   	Except P	OFF
   Shift SW Status (N Range)	N	ON
   	Except N	OFF
   Shift SW Status (D Range)	D or S	ON
   	Except D or S	OFF

NG → See step   4 

OK: Go to next step 

1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
2. Turn the engine switch on (IG).
3. Turn the Techstream on.
4. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Data List / Sports Mode Selection SW.
5. Read the values displayed on the Techstream.

   OK

   Techstream Display	Shift Lever	Specified Condition
   Sports Mode Selection SW	S	ON

NG → See step   3 

OK → See step   10 

1. Inspect the transmission control switch.
   • for 2WD. Refer to INSPECTION [03/2012 - ] - Step 2
   • for AWD. Refer to INSPECTION [03/2012 - ] - Step 2

   Result

   Result	Proceed to
   OK	A
   NG (for 2WD)	B
   NG (for AWD)	C

B → See step   8 

C → See step   13 

A → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR (ECM - TRANSMISSION CONTROL SWITCH) 

1. Disconnect the park/neutral position switch assembly connector.

4. Reconnect the park/neutral position switch assembly connector.

NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR (PARK/NEUTRAL POSITION SWITCH ASSEMBLY - BATTERY) 

OK: Go to next step 

1. Inspect the park/neutral position switch assembly.
   • for 2WD. Refer to INSPECTION [03/2012 - ]
   • for AWD. Refer to INSPECTION [03/2012 - ]

   Result

   Result	Proceed to
   OK	A
   NG (for 2WD)	B
   NG (for AWD)	C

B → See step   9 

C → See step   12 

A: Go to next step 

1. Disconnect the ECM connector.

2. Turn the engine switch on (IG).
3. Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

   Standard Voltage

   Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
   D1-2 (P) - Body ground	Engine switch on (IG) Shift lever in P	11 to 14 V
   	Engine switch on (IG) Shift lever in any position other than P	0 to 1.5 V
   D1-26 (R) - Body ground	Engine switch on (IG) Shift lever in R	11 to 14 V
   	Engine switch on (IG) Shift lever in any position other than R	0 to 1.5 V
   D1-25 (N) - Body ground	Engine switch on (IG) Shift lever in N	11 to 14 V
   	Engine switch on (IG) Shift lever in any position other than N	0 to 1.5 V
   D1-27 (D) - Body ground	Engine switch on (IG) Shift lever in D or S	11 to 14 V
   	Engine switch on (IG) Shift lever in any position other than D or S	0 to 1.5 V

4. Reconnect the ECM connector.

NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR (ECM - PARK/NEUTRAL POSITION SWITCH ASSEMBLY) 

OK: Go to next step 

1. Disconnect the park/neutral position switch assembly connector.
2. Disconnect the ECM connector.
3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

   Standard Resistance (Check for Open)

   Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
   D8-4 (B) - D1-120 (NSW)	Always	Below 1 Ω

   Standard Resistance (Check for Short)

   Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
   D8-4 (B) or D1-120 (NSW) - Body ground	Always	10 kΩ or higher

4. Reconnect the ECM connector.
5. Reconnect the park/neutral position switch assembly connector.

NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR (ECM - PARK/NEUTRAL POSITION SWITCH ASSEMBLY) 

OK → See step   11
