• | The ability of the control module or modules to communicate through the serial data circuit |
• | The identification and status of stored diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) |
The use of Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle identifies the correct procedure for diagnosing the system and where the procedure is located.
When it has been determined through Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle that no DTCs are present, begin symptom diagnosis by reviewing Functional Test . This helps you determine if the condition described by the customer is normal or if a condition exists. If it is determined that a condition exists, identify the condition by referring to Symptoms - Automatic Transmission . Symptoms - Automatic Transmission provides common diagnostic categories which relate directly to diagnostic information and procedures.
