INSPECT TRANSAXLE ASSEMBLY (SHIFT HEAD AND SHIFT FORK SHAFT)
DTC P0909 Gate Select Control Error |
DESCRIPTION
In the multi-mode manual transaxle system, the transaxle gear is shifted up and down by the TCM using a shift and select actuator. The shift and select actuator assembly consists of two motors (shift motor and select motor), stroke sensors (shift stroke sensor and select stroke sensor) and gears which move the shift and select lever shaft. The select motor moves the shift and select lever shaft in the select direction in accordance with the signal from the TCM.This DTC is set in accordance with the stroke speed of the shift and select actuator or the difference between the target select position and the actual select position. Therefore, if malfunctions occur in the select stroke sensor or the select motor circuit, the DTCs relating to the sensor or motor circuit open/short (DTC P0905, P0906, P0907 and/or P0910) are set before this DTC is set.
DTC No. | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area |

WIRING DIAGRAM

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
- ПРИМЕЧАНИЕ:
- In select stroke sensor or shift and select actuator assembly replacement, perform the [Initialization and Learning] procedure (See page Нажмите здесь) and [Synchronization Position Calibration] procedure (See page Нажмите здесь) after installing the sensor or actuator assembly. If the sensor or actuator is installed without performing [Initialization and Learning] and [Synchronization Position Calibration], it may cause driving performance degradation or system component breakage.
- УКАЗАНИЕ:
- If the symptom still occurs even after checking the shift heads and shift fork shafts for dirt, wear, and defects and replacing the defective parts, replace the TCM.
1.CHECK OTHER DTC OUTPUT (IN ADDITION TO DTC P0909) |
Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
Turn the ignition switch on (IG) and turn the tester ON.
Select the following menu items: Powertrain / Multi-Mode M/T / DTC.
Read DTCs.
- Result:
Result Proceed to P0909 A P0909 and other DTCs B

2.INSPECT TCM |
Check the shift and select actuator motor terminal output using an oscilloscope.
Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
Turn the ignition switch on (IG) and turn the tester ON.
Clear the DTC after saving the recorded freeze frame data.
Turn the ignition switch off within 2 seconds of clearing the DTC.
Connect the oscilloscope probes to the TCM terminals.
Check the waveform when the ignition switch is turned on (IG) and the shift lever position is changed from the N position to any other position.

3.INSPECT TCM |
Remove the select stroke sensor from the shift and select actuator assembly.
![]() |
Connect the select stroke sensor connector.
Turn the ignition switch on (IG).
Check the voltage change between the terminals of the TCM connector when moving the sensor arm of the select stroke sensor.
- Standard voltage:
Tester Connection Switch Condition Specified Condition A34-21 (VSL1) - A34-22 (E2L1) Ignition switch on (IG) Voltage changes in accordance with sensor arm position A34-32 (VSL2) - A34-24 (E2L2) ↑ Voltage changes in accordance with sensor arm position
Reinstall the select stroke sensor (See page Нажмите здесь).
Perform [Initialization and Learning] (See page Нажмите здесь) and [Synchronization Position Calibration] (See page Нажмите здесь)
- Result:
Result Proceed to NG A OK B

4.INSPECT SELECT STROKE SENSOR |
Remove the select stroke sensor.
![]() |
Measure the voltage between the terminals of the select stroke sensor connector (main).
Prepare 3 dry cell batteries (1.5 V) and 2 leads for connecting the batteries and the sensor.
Connect the batteries in series.
Connect the positive battery terminal to sensor terminal 4, and the negative battery terminal to sensor terminal 5.
Check the voltage between terminals 6 and 5.
- Standard voltage (combined dry cell battery voltage of 4.5 V):
Sensor Angle Terminal (6-5) Output Voltage 55° Approximately 4.05 V 0° Approximately 2.25 V -55° Approximately 0.45 V
- Reference voltage (combined dry cell battery voltage of 5.0 +- 0.3 V):
Sensor Angle Terminal (6-5) Output Voltage 55° Approximately 4.5 V 0° Approximately 2.5 V -55° Approximately 0.5 V
Measure the voltage between the terminals of the select stroke sensor connector (sub).
Connect the positive battery terminal to sensor terminal 1, and the negative battery terminal to sensor terminal 2.
Check the voltage between terminals 3 and 2.
- Standard voltage (combined dry cell battery voltage of 4.5 V):
Sensor Angle Terminal (3-2) Output Voltage 55° Approximately 4.05 V 0° Approximately 2.25 V -55° Approximately 0.45 V
- Reference voltage (combined dry cell battery voltage of 5.0 +- 0.3 V):
Sensor Angle Terminal (3-2) Output Voltage 55° Approximately 4.5 V 0° Approximately 2.5 V -55° Approximately 0.5 V
- ПРИМЕЧАНИЕ:
- Do not apply more than 6 V
- Do not use a sensor which has been dropped.
