| P0722 | Output Speed Sensor Circuit No Signal |
DESCRIPTION
The speed sensor SP2 detects the rotation speed of the transmission output shaft and sends signals to the TCM. The TCM determines the vehicle speed based on these signals. An AC voltage is generated in the speed sensor SP2 coil as the parking gear mounted on the rear planetary gear assembly rotates, and this voltage is sent to the TCM. The parking gear on the rear planetary gear is used as the timing rotor for this sensor.
The gear shift point and lock-up timing are controlled by the TCM based on the signals from this vehicle speed sensor and the throttle position sensor signal.
| DTC Code | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area |
|---|---|---|
| P0722 | All the conditions below are detected 500 times or more continuously (2 trip detection logic). (a) No signal from the speed sensor SP2 is input to the TCM while 4 pulses of the No. 1 vehicle speed sensor signal are sent. (b) The vehicle speed is 9 km/h (6 mph) or more for at least 5 sec. (c) The park/neutral position switch is OFF. (d) The transfer position is not in neutral. |

MONITOR DESCRIPTION
The output speed sensor SP2 monitors the output shaft speed. The TCM controls the gear shift point and the lock up timing based on the signals from the output speed sensor SP2 and throttle position sensor.
If the TCM detects no signal from the output speed sensor SP2 even while the vehicle is moving, it will conclude that there is a malfunction of the output speed sensor SP2. The TCM will illuminate the MIL and store a DTC.
