3. OUTLINE OF DIAGNOSIS

• Detect the malfunction of Range Switch.

• Judge as NG if more than one input of Range Switch are detected.

4. EXECUTION CONDITION

Secondary Parameters	Execution condition
12 V battery system voltage	≥ 10 V
Engine speed	≥ 500 rpm

5. DIAGNOSTIC METHOD

If the duration of time while the following conditions are met is longer than the time indicated, judge as NG.
