AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SYSTEM (for 3UR-FE), Diagnostic DTC:P0748

DTC Code DTC Name
P0748 Pressure Control Solenoid "A" Electrical (Shift Solenoid Valve SL1)

DESCRIPTION

Shifting from 1st to 5th is performed in combination with the ON and OFF operation of shift solenoid valves SL1, SL2, S1, S2, S3, S4 and SR, which are controlled by the ECM. If an open or short circuit occurs in the shift solenoid valves, the ECM controls the remaining normal shift solenoid valves to allow the vehicle to be operated safely Click here.

DTC Code DTC Detection Condition Trouble Area
P0748

The ECM checks for an open or short in the shift solenoid valve SL1 circuit while driving and shifting between 4th and 5th gear (1 trip detection logic).

Output signal duty equals 100%.

Tech Tips

SL1 output signal duty is less than 100% under normal conditions.

  • Open or short in shift solenoid valve SL1 circuit

  • Shift solenoid valve SL1

  • ECM

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

This DTC indicates an open or short in the shift solenoid valve SL1 circuit. The ECM commands gear shifts by turning the shift solenoid valves ON/OFF. When there is an open or short circuit in any shift solenoid valve circuit, the ECM detects the problem, illuminates the MIL and stores the DTC. Also, the ECM performs the fail-safe function and turns the other normal shift solenoid valves ON/OFF. In the case of an open or short circuit, the ECM stops sending the current to the open or short circuited solenoid.

While driving and shifting between 4th and 5th gears, if the ECM detects an open or short in the shift solenoid valve SL1 circuit, the ECM determines that there is a malfunction Click here.

      *a

      Component without harness connected

      (No. 1 Transmission Wire)

      Disconnect the No. 1 transmission wire connector.

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

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      11 (SL1+) - 3 (SL1-) 20°C (68°F) 5.0 to 5.6 Ω
      11 (SL1+) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      3 (SL1-) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher

      *a

      Component without harness connected

      (Shift Solenoid Valve SL1)

      Remove the shift solenoid valve SL1.

    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

      		 Valve moves and makes an operating noise
