AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SYSTEM, Diagnostic DTC:P0985, P0986

DTC Code DTC Name
P0985 Shift Solenoid "E" Control Circuit Low (Shift Solenoid Valve SR)
P0986 Shift Solenoid "E" Control Circuit High (Shift Solenoid Valve SR)

DESCRIPTION

Shifting from 1st to 6th is performed in combination with "ON" and "OFF" operation of the shift solenoid valves SL1, SL2, S1, S2, S3, S4 and SR which is controlled by the ECM. If an open or short circuit occurs in either of the shift solenoid valves, the ECM controls the remaining normal shift solenoid valve to allow the vehicle to be operated smoothly. (In case of an open or short circuit, the ECM stops sending current to the circuit.) Fail safe function Click here.

DTC No. DTC Detection Condition Trouble Area
P0985 ECM detects short in solenoid valve SR circuit 2 times when solenoid valve SR is operated (1-trip detection logic)

  • Short in shift solenoid valve SR circuit

  • Shift solenoid valve SR

  • ECM
P0986 ECM detects open in solenoid valve SR circuit 2 times when solenoid valve SR is not operated (1-trip detection logic)

  • Open in shift solenoid valve SR circuit

  • Shift solenoid valve SR

  • ECM

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

These DTCs indicate an open or short in the shift solenoid valve SR circuit. When there is an open or short circuit in any shift solenoid valve circuit, the ECM detects the problem and illuminates the MIL and stores the DTC. When the shift solenoid valve SR is on, if resistance is 8 Ω or less, the ECM determines there is a short in the shift solenoid valve SR circuit.

When the shift solenoid valve SR is off, if resistance is 100 kΩ or more, the ECM determines there is an open in the shift solenoid valve SR circuit Click here.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

Tech Tips


  • The shift solenoid valve SR is turned on/off normally when the shift lever is in the D position:

      *1

      Rear view of wire harness connector

      (to ECM)

      Connect the transmission connector to the transmission.

    2. Disconnect the connector from the ECM.

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

      Standard resistance
      Tester Connection

      Specified Condition

      20°C (68°F)
      A21-6 (SR) - Body ground 11 to 15 Ω

    NG

    REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR

    OK

  3. INSPECT SHIFT SOLENOID VALVE SR


    1. A01FGW1E01
      Text in Illustration
      *1 Shift Solenoid Valve SR

      Remove the shift solenoid valve SR.

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

      Standard resistance
      Tester Connection

      Specified Condition

      20°C (68°F)
      Solenoid Connector (SR) - Solenoid Body (SR) 11 to 15 Ω

    3. Connect the positive (+) lead to the terminal of the solenoid connector, and the negative (-) lead to the solenoid body.

      OK
      The solenoid makes an operating sound.
