Monitors, Trips, Drive Cycles and Readiness Codes

DESCRIPTION
After performing the Quick Test, use the Transaxle Drive Cycle Test for checking transaxle continuous codes.

PROCEDURE
1. Record and then erase Quick Test DTCs.

NOTE: The Transaxle Drive Cycle Test must be followed exactly. A malfunction must occur four times consecutively for DTCs P0781, P0782, P0783, P1731, P1732, P1733 to be set, and five times consecutively for continuous DTC P0741.

2. Warm the engine to normal operating temperature.
3. Make sure the ATF level is correct.
4. With the transaxle in OD, moderately accelerate from stop to 80 km/h (50 mph). This allows the transaxle to shift into fourth gear. Hold speed and throttle open steady for a minimum of 15 seconds.
5. With the transaxle in D, moderately accelerate from stop to 64 km/h (40 mph). This allows the transaxle to shift into third gear. Hold speed and throttle open steady for a minimum of 15 seconds (30 seconds above 4000 feet altitude).
6. Move the gearshift lever from D to 16) and accelerate from 64 km/h (40 mph) to 80 km/h (50 mph). This allows the transaxle to shift into fourth gear. Hold speed and throttle position steady for a minimum of 15 seconds.
7. With the transaxle in fourth gear and maintaining steady speed and throttle opening, lightly apply and release the brake to operate the stoplamps. Then hold speed and throttle steady for a minimum of five seconds.
8. Brake to a stop and remain stopped for a minimum of 20 seconds.
9. Repeat steps 4 through 8 at least five times.
10. Perform the Quick Test and record continuous DTCs.
