AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SYSTEM, Diagnostic DTC:P0715, P0717

DTC Code DTC Name
P0715 Input / Turbine Speed Sensor Circuit Malfunction
P0717 Input Speed Sensor Circuit No Signal

DESCRIPTION

The speed sensor (NT) detects the input shaft rotation speed and sends it to the TCM.

Based on the transmission speed sensor (NT) signal and the transmission speed sensor (NC3 and SP2) signal, the TCM controls engine torque and shift timing. Also, based on the input shaft rotation speed and the engine rpm signal, lock-up control is performed.

P0717

  1. When shifting between 2nd and 8th gear, output wheel rotation speed is 1000 rpm or more, and +B voltage is 10 V or more. PNP switch and speed sensor (NT) are normal.

  2. Speed sensor (NT) value is less than 300 rpm

  3. 5 seconds

  4. 1 trip detection logic

  • Speed sensor (NT)

  • Transmission wire

  • Harness and connector

  • TCM

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

The NT terminal of the TCM detects a pulse signal from the speed sensor (NT) (input RPM). The TCM calculates gear shifts comparing the speed sensor (NT) with the speed sensor (SP2).

While the vehicle is operating in 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th or 8th gear with the shift lever in D, if the input shaft revolution (speed) is less than 300 rpm*1 although the output shaft revolution (speed) is more than 1000 rpm*2, the TCM interprets this as a fault, illuminates the MIL and stores the DTC.

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

*2: The vehicle speed is 40 km/h (25 mph) or more.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

Tech Tips

Using the intelligent tester 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.

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.


  1. Warm up the engine.

  2. Turn the engine switch off.

  3. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.

  4. Turn the engine switch on (IG).

  5. Turn the intelligent tester on.

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

  7. According to the display on the intelligent tester, read the Data List.

    TCM
    Tester Display Measurement Item/Range Normal Condition Diagnostic Note
    SPD (NT)

    Input shaft speed/

    Min.: 0 rpm

    Max.: 12750 rpm

    Lock-up is


    • ON (after warming up engine): Input turbine speed (NT) is equal to engine speed

    • OFF (idling with shift lever in N): Input turbine speed (NT) is nearly equal to engine speed

    		 Data is displayed in increments of 50 rpm

    Tech Tips


    • SPD (NT) is always 0 while driving: Open or short in the sensor or circuit.

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