CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE TRANSAXLE SYSTEM(for 8NR-FTS), Diagnostic DTC:P074011, P074015

DTC Code DTC Name
P074011 Torque Converter Clutch Circuit Short to Ground
P074015 Torque Converter Clutch Circuit Short to Battery or Open

DESCRIPTION

Based on the signal received by the shift solenoid valve SL, the ECM uses the shift solenoid valve SLU to control the lock-up clutch pressure.

If there is an open or short in the shift solenoid valve SL circuit, the ECM stops sending current to the malfunctioning shift solenoid valve.

PROCEDURE


  1. INSPECT TRANSMISSION WIRE (SHIFT SOLENOID VALVE SL)


    1. A0030OTC09
      *a

      Component without harness connected

      (Transmission Wire)

      Disconnect the B185 transmission wire connector.

    2. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      3 (SL) - Body ground 20°C (68°F) 11 to 15 Ω
    3. Connect the B185 transmission wire connector.
