Abstract
A diagnostic method for shifting an actuator of a transmission may include accumulating, by a controller, a damage index for an applied current when a current is applied to the actuator of the transmission, and determining, by the controller, whether the accumulated damage index exceeds a predetermined reference index and when it is determined that the accumulated damage index exceeds the predetermined reference index, determining the actuator as a failure.
