AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE SYSTEM, Diagnostic DTC:P077513

DTC Code DTC Name
P077513 Pressure Control Solenoid "B" Circuit Open

DESCRIPTION

Changing from 1st to 6th is performed by the ECM turning shift solenoid valves SL1, SL2, SL3, SL4 and SL on and off. If an open or short circuit occurs in any of the shift solenoid valves, the ECM controls the remaining normal shift solenoid valves to allow the vehicle to be operated.

DTC No. Detection Item DTC Detection Condition Trouble Area MIL Memory Note
P077513 Pressure Control Solenoid "B" Circuit Open An open or short circuit (output signal duty is 0% or 100%) is detected by the ECM in the shift solenoid valve SL2 circuit while driving and shifting gears (SL2 output signal duty is more than 0% and less than 100% under normal conditions) (1-trip detection logic).

  • Open or short in shift solenoid valve SL2 circuit

  • Wiring harness connector

  • Transmission wire

  • Shift solenoid valve SL2

  • ECM

 Comes on DTC stored SAE: P0778

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

This DTC indicates an open or short in the shift solenoid valve SL2 circuit. The ECM commands gear shifts by turning the shift solenoid valves on or off. When there is an open or short circuit in any of the shift solenoid valve circuits, the ECM detects the problem, illuminates the MIL and stores a DTC. The ECM also performs the fail-safe function and turns the other normal shift solenoid valves on or off. (In case of an open or short circuit, the ECM stops sending current to the circuit.)

While driving and shifting gears, if the ECM detects an open or short in the shift solenoid valve SL2 circuit, the ECM determines there is a malfunction.

PROCEDURE


  1. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (SHIFT SOLENOID VALVE SL2 CIRCUIT)


    1. B0059HCC66
      *a

      Front view of wire harness connector

      (to ECM)

      Disconnect the ECM connector.

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

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      C20-5 (SL2+) - C20-4 (SL2-) 20°C (68°F) 5.0 to 5.6 Ω
      C20-5 (SL2+) - Body ground and other terminals Always 10 kΩ or higher
      C20-4 (SL2-) - Body ground and other terminals Always 10 kΩ or higher
      Result
      Proceed to
      OK
      NG

    OK

  2. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (WIRING HARNESS CONNECTOR - ECM)


    1. Disconnect the C21 wiring harness connector.

    2. Disconnect the C20 ECM connector.

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

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      C21-9 (SL2+) - C20-5 (SL2+) Always Below 1 Ω
      C21-8 (SL2-) - C20-4 (SL2-) Always Below 1 Ω
      C21-9 (SL2+) or C20-5 (SL2+) - Body ground and other terminals Always 10 kΩ or higher
      C21-8 (SL2-) or C20-4 (SL2-) - Body ground and other terminals Always 10 kΩ or higher
      Result
      Proceed to
      OK

    OK

  3. INSPECT TRANSMISSION WIRE (SHIFT SOLENOID VALVE SL2)


    1. B0058FQC04
      *a

      Component without harness connected

      (Transmission Wire)

      Remove the wiring harness connector.

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

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      A-9 (SL2+) - A-8 (SL2-) 20°C (68°F) 5.0 to 5.6 Ω
      A-9 (SL2+) - Body ground and other terminals Always 10 kΩ or higher
      A-8 (SL2-) - Body ground and other terminals Always 10 kΩ or higher
      Result
      Proceed to
      OK

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

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      1 - 2 20°C (68°F) 5.0 to 5.6 Ω

    3. Apply 12 V battery voltage to the shift solenoid valve and check that the valve moves and makes an operating noise.

      OK
      Measurement Condition Specified Condition

      • Battery positive (+) with a 21 W bulb → Terminal 1

      • Battery negative (-) → Terminal 2
