AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE SYSTEM, Diagnostic DTC:P071512, P071514, P071531

DTC Code DTC Name
P071512 Input/Turbine Speed Sensor "A" Circuit Short to Battery
P071514 Input/Turbine Speed Sensor "A" Circuit Short to Ground or Open
P071531 Input/Turbine Speed Sensor "A" No Signal

DESCRIPTION

The input speed sensor NT detects the rotation speed of the turbine, which indicates the input shaft revolution (speed) of the transaxle. By comparing the input speed sensor NT signal with the output speed sensor NC signal, the ECM detects the shift timing of the gears and appropriately controls the engine torque and hydraulic pressure according to various conditions, thus, providing smooth gear shifts.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

The NT terminal of the ECM detects a revolution signal from the input speed sensor NT (input RPM). The ECM calculates gear shifts by comparing the input speed sensor NT signal to the output speed sensor NC signal.

While the vehicle is being driven in 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th or 6th gear with the shift lever in D, if the input shaft revolution (speed) is less than 300 rpm*1 and the output shaft revolution (speed) is more than 1000 rpm*2, the ECM interprets this as a malfunction, illuminates the MIL and stores a DTC.

*1: Pulse is not output or is irregularly output.

*2: The vehicle speed is 50 km/h (31 mph) or more.

Tech Tips

After performing repair, clear the DTCs and perform the following procedure to check that DTCs are not output.


  1. Perform the D Position Shift Test in Road Test inspection and drive the vehicle for 5 seconds or more at 50 km/h (31 mph) or more.

  1. DATA LIST

    Note

    In the table below, the values listed under "Normal Condition" are reference values. Do not depend solely on these reference values when deciding whether a part is faulty or not.

    Tech Tips

    Using the GTS to read the Data List allows the values or states of switches, sensors, actuators and other items to be read without removing any parts. This non-intrusive inspection can be very useful because intermittent conditions or signals may be discovered before parts or wiring is disturbed. Reading the Data List information early in troubleshooting is one way to save diagnostic time.


    1. Warm up the engine.

    2. Turn the engine switch off.

    3. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    4. Turn the engine switch on (IG).

    5. Turn the GTS on.

    6. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Transmission / Data List.

    7. According to the display on the GTS, read the Data List.


      Powertrain > Transmission > Data List
      Tester Display Measurement Item Range Normal Condition Diagnostic Note
      NT Sensor Speed Input turbine speed

      Min.: 0 rpm

      Max.: 12750 rpm

      • Equal to engine speed: Lock-up on (after warming up the engine)

      • Nearly equal to engine speed: Lock-up off (idling with shift lever in N)

      		 Data is displayed in increments of 50 rpm.

      Powertrain > Transmission > Data List
      Tester Display
      NT Sensor Speed

      Tech Tips


      • NT Sensor Speed is always 0 while driving: Open or short in the sensor or circuit.

      • NT Sensor Speed is always more than 0 and less than 300 rpm while driving the vehicle at 50 km/h (31 mph) or more: Sensor malfunction, improper installation, or intermittent connection malfunction in the circuit.

PROCEDURE
