AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SYSTEM(for 2GR-FSE), Diagnostic DTC:P0776

DTC Code DTC Name
P0776 Pressure Control Solenoid "B" Performance (Shift Solenoid Valve SL2)

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

Based on signals from the transmission revolution sensors (NT, SP2 and NC3), the actual gear is detected.

If the detected gear is different than the commanded gear, the TCM detects related mechanical pro in the shift solenoid valves, valve body and automatic transmission.

Tech Tips

Actual gear when a problem occurs in shift solenoid valve SL2:

TCM commanded gear 1st 2nd 3rd 4th 5th 6th 7th 8th
Actual gear during SL2 stuck ON malfunction 5th 8th 7th 6th 5th 6th 7th 8th
Actual gear during SL2 stuck OFF malfunction 1st 2nd 3rd 4th N (1st)* N* N* N*

*: Neutral

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

The TCM commands gear shifts by turning the shift solenoid valves on and off. According to the input shaft revolution (speed), intermediate (counter) shaft revolution (speed) and output shaft revolution (speed), the TCM detects the actual gear (1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th or 8th gear position). When the gear commanded by the TCM and the actual gear are not the same, the TCM illuminates the MIL and store this DTC.
