DESCRIPTION
The transmission revolution sensor is mounted on the transaxle. The ECM calculates the transaxle input shaft speed using the sensor. When the input shaft rotates, the sensor generates a pulse signal and sends the signal to the ECM. The ECM calculates the input shaft speed based on the signal. If the input shaft speed falls below a threshold despite the engine running, the ECM interprets this as a malfunction in the transmission revolution sensor circuit. The ECM stores this DTC.
DTC No. | Detection Item | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area | MIL | Memory | Note |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
P071512 | Input/Turbine Speed Sensor "A" Circuit Short to Battery | There is no malfunction in transmission revolution sensor (NIM) signals, and the transmission revolution sensor (NIM) output voltage is higher than 1.8 V for 2 seconds (1 trip detection logic). |
| Comes on | DTC stored | SAE Code: P07C0 |
P071514 | Input/Turbine Speed Sensor "A" Circuit Short to Ground or Open | There is no malfunction in transmission revolution sensor (NIM) signals, and the transmission revolution sensor (NIM) output voltage is less than 0.2 V for 2 seconds (1 trip detection logic). |
| Comes on | DTC stored | SAE Code: P07BF |
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
The transmission revolution sensor (NIM) detects the rotation speed of the input shaft. Based on comparison with the transmission revolution sensor (NIM) (input shaft rotation speed), the ECM determines the necessary gear ratio. If the output shaft rotation speed deviates from the threshold value, the ECM determines that the transmission revolution sensor (NIM) is malfunctioning, and so the ECM will illuminate the MIL and store a DTC.

(b) Connect the auxiliary battery to the transmission revolution sensor as shown in the illustration.
*1 | Auxiliary Battery | - | - |
*a | Component without harness connected (Transmission Revolution Sensor) | *b | Magnet |
*c | 5 mm or less | *d | Ammeter |
(c) Wave a magnetic object left and right 5 mm (0.197 in.) or less from the tip of the transmission revolution sensor to output a high/low signal while measuring the current.
NOTICE:
Make sure to wave the magnetic object during the inspection. The current will not change unless the magnetic object is moved as shown in the illustration.
(d) Measure the current according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Current:
Tester Connection | Condition | Specified Condition |
---|---|---|
1 (NIMO) - 2 (NIMB) | Low signal | 4 to 8 mA |
1 (NIMO) - 2 (NIMB) | High signal | 12 to 16 mA |
NG | REPLACE TRANSMISSION REVOLUTION SENSOR |
|
3. | CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (TRANSMISSION REVOLUTION SENSOR - ECM) |
(a) Disconnect the D99 transmission revolution sensor connector.
(b) Disconnect the D105 ECM connector.
(c) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance:
Tester Connection | Condition | Specified Condition |
---|---|---|
D99-1 (NIMO) - D105-54 (NIMO) | Always | Below 1 Ω |
D99-2 (NIMB) - D105-53 (NIMB) | Always | Below 1 Ω |
D99-1 (NIMO) or D105-54 (NIMO) - Body ground and other terminals | Always | 10 kΩ or higher |
D99-2 (NIMB) or D105-53 (NIMB) - Body ground and other terminals | Always | 10 kΩ or higher |
(d) Connect the D105 ECM connector.
(e) Connect the D99 transmission revolution sensor connector.
OK | REPLACE ECM |
NG | REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR (TRANSMISSION REVOLUTION SENSOR - ECM) |
