Diagnosis & Testing: Notes

NOTE: To test electronic control of transaxle solenoids without using self-diagnostics or if self-diagnostics does not function, go to CIRCUIT TESTS  and COMPONENT TESTS  . After repairs are made, DTCs should be erased from computer memory. See CLEARING DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES  .
NOTE: DTCs will be recorded at various operating times. Some DTCs require operation of affected sensor or switch for 5 seconds; others may require operation for 5 minutes or longer at normal operating temperature, road speed and load. Therefore, some DTCs may not set in a service bay operational mode and may require road testing vehicle in order to duplicate condition under which code will set.
