AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SYSTEM (for 2TR-FE), Diagnostic DTC:P2714

DTC Code DTC Name
P2714 Pressure Control Solenoid "D" Performance (Shift Solenoid Valve SLT)

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.

B007WFGE01
DTC No. DTC Detection Condition Trouble Area
P2714 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)
  • Shift solenoid valve SLT remains open

  • Shift solenoid valve SL1, SL2, SL3 or SL4 remains open or closed

  • Transmission valve body assembly is blocked

  • Automatic transmission assembly (clutch, brake or gear, etc.)

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.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

Note

Perform registration and/or initialization when parts related to the automatic transmission are replaced Click here.

  1. CHECK OTHER DTCS OUTPUT (IN ADDITION TO DTC P2714)


    1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    2. Turn the ignition switch to ON.

    3. Turn the GTS on.

    4. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Trouble Codes.

    5. Read the DTCs using the GTS.

      Only DTC P2714 is output A
      P2714 and other DTCs are output B

      Tech Tips

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

    B
  2. 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.


    1. Turn the ignition switch off.

    2. Lift the vehicle up.

    3. B007QN4E01

      Remove the test plug from the transmission case and connect SST.

      SST
      09992-00095   ( 09992-00231, 09992-00271 )
    4. Lower the vehicle.

    5. Fully apply the parking brake and chock the 4 wheels.

    6. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    7. Start the engine.

    8. Warm up the ATF (Automatic Transmission Fluid).

    9. Measure the line pressure when the engine is idling.

    10. Turn the GTS on.

    11. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Active Test.

    12. Follow the instructions on the GTS and perform the Active Test.

    13. Measure the line pressure with SST.

      Activate the Solenoid (SLT)* Operates shift solenoid valve SLT to raise the line pressure.

      ON/OFF

      Tech Tips

      ON: No action (normal operation)

      OFF: Line pressure up (When the Active Test of "Activate the Solenoid (SLT)" is performed, the ECM commands the shift solenoid valve SLT to turn off).

      [Vehicle Condition]


      • Vehicle Stopped

      • Engine idling

      *: 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 Click here.

      Tech Tips

      Note that the pressure readings for the Active Test and Hydraulic Test are different.

      OK
      The line pressure changes as specified when performing the Active Test.

  3. PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING GTS (CONTROL THE SHIFT POSITION)

    Note

    This test should always be performed with at least 2 people.


    1. Warm up the engine.

    2. Turn the ignition switch off.

    3. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    4. Turn the ignition switch to ON.

    5. Turn the GTS on.

    6. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Active Test.

    7. 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 Click here.

      Control the Shift Position Operates the shift solenoid valves to allow gears to be selected manually.
      • Press "→" button: Up-shift occurs

      • Press "←" button: Down-shift occurs

      Can be used to check the operation of the shift solenoid valves.

      Up-shifts and down-shifts should be performed consecutively. A 10 seconds interval is required between gear changes.

      Do not down-shift at high speeds. Doing so will damage the automatic transmission.

      [Vehicle Condition]


      • 50 km/h (31 mph) or less

      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.

    8. 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.
