Lexus ES: Manual Shifting Test

MANUAL SHIFTING TEST

MANUAL SHIFTING TEST

HINT:

  • Using this test, it can be determined whether a problem is in an electrical circuit or if it is a mechanical problem in the transaxle.
  • If any abnormalities are found in the following test, the problem is in the transaxle itself.

(a) Disconnect the transmission wire connector.

HINT:

It is possible to deactivate the electrical shift control by disconnecting the transmission wire. The gears can then be changed mechanically with the shift lever.

(b) Drive the vehicle with the transmission wire connector disconnected. Move the shift lever to each position to check whether the gear changes as shown in the table below.

DESCRIPTION The Variable Valve Timing (VVT) system (for exhaust side) adjusts the exhaust valve timing to improve driveability. The engine oil pressure turns the VVT controller (camshaft timing exhaust gear assembly) to adjust the valve timing. The cam timing oil control solenoid assembly operates a
