Tester Installation

CAUTION: Do not attempt to pry off connectors with a screwdriver. This will damage the connector and could result in a transaxle concern.

NOTE: During tester usage, additional fault codes may be set. Therefore, it is important that all codes are erased after repairs have been made. To verify elimination of all DTCs, rerun OBD tests.

1. Disconnect vehicle harness at transaxle TR sensor.
2. Set the two-way switch in the down position. (This switch will stay in the same position for all TR sensor testing.)





3. Attach the TR/MLP sensor overlay to the transmission tester.

NOTE: Affixing the overlay will immobilize the two-way switch (set in Step 2) so it cannot be accidentally moved to an incorrect setting during testing.





4. Select and connect interface cable D to tester and then to TR connector. Use the transmission tester extender cable when running tests with the transaxle on the vehicle.





5. Turn large dial to TR/MLP SENSOR TEST.

CAUTION: Route all cables away from heat sources to prevent damage to cables during testing.

6. Plug transmission tester power cable into cigar lighter socket. All LEDs should light for a short period and then turn off. This is the tester's internal circuit check.
