AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SYSTEM (for 3UR-FE) FAIL-SAFE CHART


  1. Fail-safe

    This function minimizes the loss of the ECT functions when a malfunction occurs in each sensor or shift solenoid valve.

  2. Fail-safe Control List

    Malfunctioning Part Function

    DTC P0717:

    Input Speed Sensor NT

    During an input speed sensor malfunction, shift control is performed through the output speed sensor SP2 signal.

    During an input speed sensor malfunction, up-shift to 5th and 6th, AI-SHIFT* and flex lock-up clutch control are prohibited.

    DTC P0722:

    Output Speed Sensor SP2

    During an output speed sensor malfunction, shift control is performed through the input speed sensor NT signal.

    During an output speed sensor malfunction, up-shift to 5th and 6th, AI-SHIFT* and flex lock-up clutch control are prohibited.

    DTC P0712, P0713:

    ATF Temperature Sensor

    		 During an ATF temperature sensor malfunction, up-shift to 5th and 6th and flex lock-up clutch control are prohibited.
    Shift Solenoid Valve S1, S2, S3, S4 and SR

    The current to the malfunctioning shift solenoid valve is cut off and control is performed by operating the other shift solenoid valves.

    Shift control is performed depending on the malfunctioning shift solenoid valve as described in the table below.

    DTC P0748, P0778:

    Shift Solenoid Valve SL1 and SL2

    		 During a shift solenoid valve SL1 or SL2 malfunction, up-shift to 5th and 6th and flex lock-up clutch control are prohibited.

    DTC P2714, P2716:

    Shift Solenoid Valve SLT

    		 During a shift solenoid valve SLT malfunction, the current to the shift solenoid valve is stopped. This stops line pressure optimal control, and shift shock increases. However, shifting is performed through normal clutch pressure control.

    DTC P2757, P2759:

    Shift Solenoid Valve SLU

    		 During a shift solenoid valve SLU malfunction, the current to the shift solenoid valve is stopped. This stops lock-up control and flex lock-up control, and fuel economy decreases.

    Tech Tips

    *: In addition to the switching of the shift pattern through the pattern select switch, Artificial Intelligence Shift (AI-SHIFT) control enables the ECM to estimate the road conditions and the driver intention in order to automatically select the optimal shift pattern.

    1. Fail-safe operation for electronically malfunctioning shift solenoid valve (S1, S2, S3, S4 and SR).


      1. Fail-safe function

        If any of the shift solenoid valve circuits has an open or short failure, the ECM turns the other shift solenoid valves "ON" and "OFF" in order to shift into the gear positions shown in the table below. Also, the ECM stops sending current to the open or short circuited solenoid.

        Even if starting the engine again in the fail-safe mode, the gear position remains in the same position.

        Tech Tips


        • *: Actual gear shift (gear position) under fail-safe operation.

        • X: OFF (the ECM stops sending current to the malfunctioning shift solenoid valve).

        • Electrical malfunction: Condition is shown to the left of the "→".

        • Fail-safe mode: Condition is shown to the right of the "→".

        • E/B: Engine brake
