DTC Troubleshooting

DTC Troubleshooting: P0722 (9), P0723 (9)

DTC P0722:

Output Shaft (Countershaft) Speed Sensor Circuit (No Signal Input)

DTC P0723:

Output Shaft (Countershaft) Speed Sensor (Intermittent Failure)

NOTE:

- Before you troubleshoot, record all freeze data and any on-board snapshot, and review General Troubleshooting Information How to Troubleshoot the A/T System.
- This code is caused by an electrical circuit problem and cannot be caused by a mechanical problem in the transmission.

1. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).

2. Clear the DTC with the HDS.

3. With SH-AWD: Raise the vehicle on a lift, make sure it is securely supported, and allow all four wheels to rotate freely.
Without SH-AWD: Block the rear wheels and raise the front of the vehicle, make sure it is securely supported, and allow the front wheels to rotate freely, or raise the vehicle on a lift.

4. Start the engine, and disable the VSA by pressing the VSA OFF button. Run the vehicle in with the shift lever in D, and speeds over 12 mph (20 km/h) at least 10 seconds. Check the Input Shaft (Mainshaft) Speed and the Output Shaft (Countershaft) Speed in the Data List with the HDS. Slow down and stop the wheels.

Are they same speed?

YES -

Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time.�

NO -

Go to step 5.

5. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).

6. Disconnect the output shaft (countershaft) speed sensor connector.

7. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).

8. Measure the voltage between output shaft (countershaft) speed sensor connector terminal No. 1 and body ground.





Is there about 5 V?

YES -

Go to step 9.

NO -

Repair open in the wire between PCM connector terminal B18 and the output shaft (countershaft) speed sensor, then go to step 15.

9. Measure the voltage between output shaft (countershaft) speed sensor connector terminal No. 2 and body ground.





Is there about 5 V?

YES -

Go to step 10.

NO -

Go to step 11.

10. Check for continuity between output shaft (countershaft) speed sensor connector terminal No. 3 and body ground.





Is there continuity?

YES -

Replace the output shaft (countershaft) speed sensor, then go to step 15.

NO -

Repair open in the wire between PCM connector terminal B33 and the output shaft (countershaft) speed sensor, then go to step 15.

11. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).

12. Jump the SCS line with the HDS.

13. Disconnect PCM connector C (44P).

14. Check for continuity between output shaft (countershaft) speed sensor connector terminal No. 2 and body ground.





Is there continuity?

YES -

Repair short to body ground in the wire between PCM connector terminal C43 and the output shaft (countershaft) speed sensor, then go to step 15.

NO -

Repair open in the wire between PCM connector terminal C43 and the output shaft (countershaft) speed sensor, then go to step 15.

15. Reconnect all connectors.

16. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).

17. Clear the DTC with the HDS.

18. Start the engine, and disable the VSA by pressing the VSA OFF button. Run the vehicle in with the shift lever in D, and speeds over 12 mph (20 km/h) at least 10 seconds. Check the Input Shaft (Mainshaft) Speed and the Output Shaft (Countershaft) Speed in the Data List with the HDS. Slow down and stop the wheels.

Are they same speed?

YES -

Troubleshooting is complete.�

NO -

Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the output shaft (countershaft) speed sensor and the PCM, then go to step 1.
