AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SYSTEM(for 8AR-FTS), Diagnostic DTC:P072012, P072014, P072031

DTC Code DTC Name
P072012 Output Speed Sensor Circuit Short to Battery
P072014 Output Speed Sensor Circuit Short to Ground or Open
P072031 Output Speed Sensor No Signal

DESCRIPTION

The transmission revolution sensor (SP2) detects the output shaft rotation speed and sends it to the ECM.

Based on the transmission revolution sensor (NT) signal and the transmission revolution sensor (SP2) signal, the ECM controls engine torque and shift timing.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

The transmission revolution sensor (SP2) monitors the output shaft speed.

The ECM controls the gearshift point and the lock up timing based on the signals from the transmission revolution sensor (SP2) and throttle position sensor.

If the ECM detects no signal from the transmission revolution sensor (SP2) even while the vehicle is moving, it will determine the transmission revolution sensor (SP2) is malfunctioning, illuminate the MIL and store a DTC.

  1. DATA LIST

    Note

    In the table below, the values listed under "Normal Condition" are reference values. Do not depend solely on these reference values when deciding whether a part is faulty or not.

    Tech Tips

    Using the GTS to read the Data List allows the values or states of switches, sensors, actuators and other items to be read without removing any parts. This non-intrusive inspection can be very useful because intermittent conditions or signals may be discovered before parts or wiring is disturbed. Reading the Data List information early in troubleshooting is one way to save diagnostic time.


    1. Warm up the engine.

    2. Turn the engine switch off.

    3. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    4. Turn the engine switch on (IG).

    5. Turn the GTS on.

    6. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Transmission / Data List / Speed (SP2).

    7. Read the Data List according to the display on the GTS.


      Powertrain > Transmission > Data List
      Tester Display Measurement Item Range Normal Condition Diagnostic Note
      Speed (SP2) Output shaft speed

      Min.: 0 km/h (0 mph)

      Max.: 255 km/h (158 mph)

      0 km/h (0 mph): Vehicle stopped

      (Output shaft speed is equal to vehicle speed)

      Speed (SP2)

      Tech Tips


      • Speed (SP2) is always 0 while driving: Open or short in the sensor or circuit.

      • The Speed (SP2) value displayed on the GTS is much lower than the actual vehicle speed: Sensor malfunction, improper installation, or intermittent connection malfunction of the circuit.

PROCEDURE


  1. READ VALUE USING GTS (SPD (SP2) AND SP2 SENSOR VOLTAGE)


    1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    2. Turn the engine switch on (IG).

    3. Turn the GTS on.

    4. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Transmission / Data List / Speed (SP2) and SP2 Sensor Voltage.

    5. Read the Data List according to the display on the GTS.
