AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SYSTEM(for 8AR-FTS), Diagnostic DTC:P076A11

DTC Code DTC Name
P076A11 Shift Solenoid "H" Control Circuit Short to Ground

DESCRIPTION

Based on the ON-OFF combinations of the solenoid (SL1, SL2, SL3, SL4, SL5, SC1 and SC2) valves, the ECM performs gear shifts from 1st gear to 8th gear.

If a circuit related to a solenoid valve is open or shorted, the ECM uses the fail-safe function to turn other solenoid valves on or off. If all solenoid valves are malfunctioning, only the mechanical fluid pressure circuit will function and some manual operation will be possible. If an open or short has occurred, the ECM cuts power to the malfunctioning solenoid valve.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

This DTC indicates a short in the solenoid (SC1) valve circuit. When there is an open or short in any shift solenoid valve circuit, the ECM detects the problem, illuminates the MIL and stores a DTC.

When the solenoid (SC1) valve is on, if its resistance is 8 Ω or less, the ECM determines there is a short in the solenoid (SC1) valve circuit.

Tech Tips

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


  1. While the vehicle is being driven, move the shift lever to M, select the M1 (1st gear) range and perform an engine brake.

  2. Check for DTCs again.

PROCEDURE


  1. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (TRANSMISSION WIRE (SOLENOID (SC1) VALVE) - ECM)


    1. Disconnect the F78 ECM connector.

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

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      F78-75 (SC1) - Body ground 20°C (68°F) 11 to 15 Ω
      Result

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


    1. Disconnect the F73 transmission wire connector.

    2. Disconnect the F78 ECM connector.

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

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      F73-21 (SC1) or F78-75 (SC1) - Body ground and other terminals Always 10 kΩ or higher
      Result
      Proceed to
      OK
      NG

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

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      Terminal of solenoid (SC1) valve connector - Solenoid (SC1) valve body 20°C (68°F) 11 to 15 Ω

    3. Connect a positive (+) lead from the battery to the terminal of the solenoid valve connector, and a negative (-) lead to the solenoid body. Check that the valve moves and makes an operating sound.

      OK
      Valve moves and makes an operating sound.
