Procedure A

CHECK STARTING SYSTEM
Turn ignition switch OFF, then turn it to START.

Does starter motor operate?

Yes or No

Yes : GO TO 2.

No : Refer to , "STARTING SYSTEM ".

CHECK PNP SWITCH INPUT SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR OPEN AND SHORT-I

Turn ignition switch OFF.
Disconnect combination meter harness connector M23.
Turn ignition switch ON.

Check voltage between combination meter terminals 35, 36 and ground with CONSULT-II or tester under the following conditions.

PNP SWITCH VOLTAGE

Condition (Shift position)	Voltage
Condition (Shift position)	Terminal 35	Terminal 36
P position	BATTERY VOLTAGE (11 - 14V)	Approximately 0 V
N position	Approximately 0 V	BATTERY VOLTAGE (11 - 14V)
Except the above position	Approximately 0 V	Approximately 0 V

DETECT MALFUNCTIONING PART
Check the following.
- Harness connectors E8, F17
- Harness connectors E25, M90
- 10A fuse
- Fuse block (J/B) connector M4
- Harness for open or short between PNP switch and fuse
  : Repair open circuit or short to ground or short to power in harness or connectors.
CHECK PNP SWITCH INPUT SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR OPEN AND SHORT-I
1. Check harness continuity between PNP switch terminal 7 and combination meter terminal 35, PNP switch terminal 9 and combination meter terminal 36.
  Refer to WIRING DIAGRAM .
  
  Continuity should exist.
2. Also check harness for short to ground and short to power.
OK or NG

OK : GO TO 7.

NG : GO TO 6.
DETECT MALFUNCTIONING PART
Check the following.
- Harness connectors E2, F32
- Harness connectors E25, M90
- Harness for open or short between PNP switch and combination meter
  : Repair open circuit or short to ground or short to power in harness or connectors.
CHECK PNP SWITCH
Refer to , "DTC P0705 PARK/NEUTRAL POSITION SWITCH ".

OK or NG

OK : GO TO 8.

NG : Replace PNP switch.
CHECK INTERMITTENT INCIDENT
Refer to , "TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS FOR INTERMITTENT INCIDENT ".

: INSPECTION END
CHECK PNP SWITCH INPUT SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR OPEN AND SHORT-II
1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
2. Disconnect ECM harness connector.
3. Check harness continuity between ECM terminal 102 and combination meter terminal 12.
  Refer to WIRING DIAGRAM .
  
  Continuity should exist.
4. Also check harness for short to ground and short to power.
OK or NG

OK : GO TO 11.

NG : GO TO 10.
DETECT MALFUNCTIONING PART
Check the following.
- Harness connectors E134, M83
- Harness for open or short between ECM and combination meter
  : Repair open circuit or short to ground or short to power in harness or connectors.
CHECK COMBINATION METER
Refer to , "COMBINATION METERS ".

OK or NG

OK : GO TO 12.

NG : Replace combination meter
CHECK INTERMITTENT INCIDENT
Refer to , "TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS FOR INTERMITTENT INCIDENT ".
