It is possible that temporary poor contact occurs.

3. OUTLINE OF DIAGNOSIS

• Detect the abnormality in transmission gear ratio control function.

• Judge as NG if a discrepancy between the transmission target gear ratio (as internal data) and the actual gear ratio becomes the specified value or more. (Compare the value of “Gear Ratio Target - Secondary pulley speed ≈ Target primary speed equivalent value” with the value of primary pulley speed sensor.)

4. EXECUTION CONDITION

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

5. DIAGNOSTIC METHOD

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

Judgment Value

Malfunction Criteria	Threshold Value
\|Target primary pulley shaft speed − Measured primary pulley shaft speed\|	≥ 600 rpm
(Commanded duty of shift up pressure control solenoid valve	≥ 90%
or
Commanded duty of shift down pressure control solenoid valve)	≥ 90%

Time Needed for Diagnosis: 5 seconds

Malfunction Indicator Light Illumination: Illuminates as soon as a malfunction occurs.
