CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE TRANSAXLE SYSTEM, Diagnostic DTC:P0962,P0963,P0966 and P0967

DTC Code DTC Name
P0962 Pressure Control Solenoid "A" Control Circuit Low (Shift Solenoid Valve DS1)
P0963 Pressure Control Solenoid "A" Control Circuit High (Shift Solenoid Valve DS1)
P0966 Pressure Control Solenoid "B" Control Circuit Low (Shift Solenoid Valve DS2)
P0967 Pressure Control Solenoid "B" Control Circuit High (Shift Solenoid Valve DS2)

DESCRIPTION

Using the shift solenoid valve DS1 (inflow to the primary pulley) and shift solenoid valve DS2 (outflow from the primary pulley), the ECM controls the line pressure and fluid volume input to and output from the primary pulley according to the vehicle speed and accelerator pedal angle. As a fail-safe function, if a is short or open is detected in a solenoid circuit, the ECM stops current to the faulty solenoid.

DTC No.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

These DTCs indicate an open or short circuit in the shift solenoid valve DS1 or DS2 circuit. When there is an open or short circuit in the shift solenoid valve DS1 or DS2 circuit, the ECM detects the problem, illuminates the MIL and stores a DTC.

PROCEDURE

  1. PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING GTS (CONTROL THE SHIFT POSITION)

    1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    2. Turn the ignition switch to ON.

    3. Turn the GTS on.

    4. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Data List.

      Tip:

      *1:"Shift Status" is a signal divided into 5 gear positions for Active Test.

      It does not express gear ratios for normal driving and gear positions for 7-speed sport sequential shiftmatic mode.

    5. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Active Test.

    6. In accordance with the display on the GTS, perform the Active Test.

      Diagnostic Note

      Control the Shift Position

      Operates the shift solenoid valves to allow the gear position to be manually selected [1st - 2nd - 3rd - 4th - 5th]

      Reference gear ratios:

      1st (2.4 gear ratio max.) - 2nd (1.5) - 3rd (1.0) - 4th (0.7) - 5th (0.43 gear ratio min.)

      • Press "→" button: Shift up

      • Press "←" button: Shift down

      Used to check the operation of the shift solenoid valves.

      [Vehicle Condition]

      Perform at a vehicle speed of 45 km/h (28 mph) or less.

      Note:

      Performing this test at speeds other than those specified in "Vehicle Condition" will damage the transaxle.

      Tip:

      Perform "Control the Shift Position" while monitoring "Shift Status" to confirm actual gear position.
