SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The shift solenoid valve SLT controls the transmission line pressure for smooth transmission operation based on signals from the throttle position sensor and the vehicle speed sensor. The ECM adjusts the current to shift solenoid valve SLT to control hydraulic line pressure coming from the primary regulator valve. Appropriate line pressure assures smooth shifting with varying engine outputs.
DTC No. | Detection Item | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area | MIL | Memory |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
P2714 | Pressure Control Solenoid "D" Performance (Shift Solenoid Valve SLT) | The ECM detects a malfunction in the shift solenoid valve SLT (ON side) according to the difference in the speed between the turbine and the output shaft, and also by the ATF pressure. (2 trip detection logic) |
|
Comes on | DTC stored |
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
The ECM calculates the amount of clutch slip based on the input turbine speed, output shaft speed, and gear ratio. If the amount of clutch slip exceeds a specified level, the ECM will set this DTC and illuminate the MIL.
When shift solenoid valve SLT remains on, the line pressure goes down and clutch engagement force decreases.
Note
If the vehicle continues to be driven under these conditions, the clutch will burn up and the vehicle will no longer be drivable.
CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
Note
Perform registration and/or initialization when parts related to the automatic transmission are replaced.
Tech Tips
After the repair, clear the DTCs and perform the following procedure to check that DTCs are not output.
Perform the D Position Shift Test in Road Test.*1
Turn the ignition switch off.
Perform step (*1) again.
Check for DTCs again.
PROCEDURE
CHECK OTHER DTCS OUTPUT (IN ADDITION TO DTC P2714)
Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
Turn the ignition switch to ON.
Turn the GTS on.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Trouble Codes.
Read the DTCs using the GTS.

Tech Tips
If a solenoid is stuck on, DTCs for several solenoids including the malfunctioning solenoid will be detected.

PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING GTS (ACTIVATE THE SOLENOID (SLT))
Note
Perform the test while the ATF (Automatic Transmission Fluid) temperature is between 50 and 80°C (122 and 176°F).
Be careful to prevent the hose of SST from interfering with the exhaust pipe.
This check must be conducted after checking and adjusting the engine.
Perform the test with the air conditioning off.
Tech Tips
Using the GTS to perform Active Tests allows relays, VSVs, actuators and other items to be operated without removing any parts. This non-intrusive functional inspection can be very useful because intermittent operation may be discovered before parts or wiring is disturbed. Performing Active Tests early in troubleshooting is one way to save diagnostic time. Data List information can be displayed while performing Active Tests.
Turn the ignition switch off.
Lift the vehicle up.
Remove the test plug from the transmission case and connect SST.
Lower the vehicle.
Fully apply the parking brake and chock the 4 wheels.
Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
Start the engine.
Warm up the ATF (Automatic Transmission Fluid).
Measure the line pressure when the engine is idling.
Turn the GTS on.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Active Test.
Follow the instructions on the GTS and perform the Active Test.
Measure the line pressure with SST.

Activate the Solenoid (SLT) |
The "Activate the Solenoid (SLT)" Active Test is performed to allow confirmation that the line pressure changes. The line pressure changes are confirmed using the same SST that is used for the Hydraulic Test.
Tech Tips
Note that the pressure readings for the Active Test and Hydraulic Test are different.

PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING GTS (CONTROL THE SHIFT POSITION)
Note
This test should always be performed with at least 2 people.
Warm up the engine.
Turn the ignition switch off.
Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
Turn the ignition switch to ON.
Turn the GTS on.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Active Test.
According to the display on the GTS, perform the Active Test.
Tech Tips
Comparing the gear commanded by the Active Test with the actual gear enables confirmation of the problem.
Tester Display | Measurement Item | Control Range | Diagnostic Note |
---|---|---|---|
Control the Shift Position | Operates the shift solenoid valves to allow gears to be selected manually. |
|
Can be used to check the operation of the shift solenoid valves. Up-shifts and down-shifts should be performed consecutively. A 10 second interval is required between gear changes. Do not down-shift at high speeds. Doing so will damage the automatic transmission.
[Vehicle Condition] |

Control the Shift Position |
Tech Tips
This test can be conducted when the vehicle speed is 50 km/h (30 mph) or less.
The 4th to 5th and 5th to 6th up-shift must be performed with the accelerator pedal released.
The 6th to 5th and 5th to 4th down-shift must be performed with the accelerator pedal released.
Do not operate the accelerator pedal for at least 2 seconds after shifting and do not shift successively.
The gear commanded by the ECM is shown in the Data List / Shift Status display on the GTS.
Compare the ECM commanded gear and the actual gear.

Tech Tips
*1: Neutral
*2: If shift solenoid valve SLT is stuck on, the line pressure will be low. Therefore, the amount of torque that can be transmitted by each gear is lower than the normal limit. When the engine power exceeds this lowered limit, the engine speed will increase freely.
*3: When shift solenoid valve SLT is stuck off, gear shifting is normal.
