AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SYSTEM, Diagnostic DTC:P0985, P0986

DTC Code DTC Name
P0985 Shift Solenoid "E" Control Circuit Low (Shift Solenoid Valve SR)
P0986 Shift Solenoid "E" Control Circuit High (Shift Solenoid Valve SR)

DESCRIPTION

Shifting from 1st to 6th is performed in combination with "ON" and "OFF" operation of the shift solenoid valves SL1, SL2, S1, S2, S3, S4 and SR which is controlled by the ECM. If an open or short circuit occurs in either of the shift solenoid valves, the ECM controls the remaining normal shift solenoid valve to allow the vehicle to be operated smoothly. (In case of an open or short circuit, the ECM stops sending current to the circuit.) Fail safe function.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

These DTCs indicate an open or short in the shift solenoid valve SR circuit. When there is an open or short circuit in any shift solenoid valve circuit, the ECM detects the problem and illuminates the MIL and stores the DTC. When the shift solenoid valve SR is on, if resistance is 8 Ω or less, the ECM determines there is a short in the shift solenoid valve SR circuit.

When the shift solenoid valve SR is off, if resistance is 100 kΩ or more, the ECM determines there is an open in the shift solenoid valve SR circuit.

PROCEDURE


  1. INSPECT TRANSMISSION WIRE (SHIT SOLENOID VALVE SR)


    1. A01MVFBC70
      *a

      Component without harness connected

      (Transmission Wire)

      Disconnect the transmission wire connector from the transmission.

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

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      6 (SR) - Body ground 20°C (68°F) 11 to 15 Ω
      Result

  2. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (TRANSMISSION WIRE - ECM)


    1. A001K79C09
      *a

      Rear view of wire harness connector

      (to ECM)

      Connect the transmission wire connector to the transmission.

    2. Disconnect the A77 connector from the ECM.

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

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      A77-6 (SR) - Body ground 20°C (68°F) 11 to 15 Ω
      Result
      Proceed to
      OK
      NG

  3. INSPECT SHIFT SOLENOID VALVE SR


    1. A01MXTUC04
      *a Shift Solenoid Valve SR

      Remove the shift solenoid valve SR.

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

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      Solenoid Connector (SR) - Solenoid Body (SR) 20°C (68°F) 11 to 15 Ω

    3. Connect the positive (+) lead to the terminal of the solenoid connector, and the negative (-) lead to the solenoid body.

      OK
      The solenoid makes an operating sound.
