DTC Troubleshooting
DTC Troubleshooting: P0722 (9-3), P0723 (9-6)
DTC P0722:
Problem in 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 with the HDS, and review the 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), or press the engine start/stop button to select the ON mode.
2. Clear the DTC with the HDS.
3. Raise the vehicle on a lift, make sure it is securely supported, and allow the all four wheels to rotate freely.
4. Start the engine, disable the VSA by pressing the VSA OFF button, move the shift lever to D, and run the vehicle with the engine speed above 2,000 rpm. Compare the Input Shaft (Mainshaft) Speed and the Output Shaft (Countershaft) Speed with the HDS in the A/T Data List. Slow down, and stop the wheels.
Are the speeds about the same?
YES -
Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time.
NO -
Go to step 5.
5. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0), or press the engine start/stop button to select the OFF mode.
6. Disconnect the output shaft (countershaft) speed sensor connector.
7. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II), or press the engine start/stop button to select the ON mode.
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 an open in the wire between PCM connector terminal B36 and output shaft (countershaft) speed sensor connector terminal No. 1, 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 Output Shaft (Countershaft) Speed Sensor Replacement, then go to step 15.
NO -
Repair an open in the wire between output shaft (countershaft) speed sensor connector terminal No. 3 and PCM connector terminal C15, then go to step 15.
11. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0), or press the engine start/stop button to select the OFF mode.
12. Jump the SCS line with the HDS.
13. Disconnect PCM connector B (49P).
14. Check for continuity between output shaft (countershaft) speed sensor connector terminal No. 2 and body ground.
Is there continuity?
YES -
Repair a short to body ground in the wire between PCM connector terminal B38 and output shaft (countershaft) speed sensor connector terminal No. 2, then go to step 15.
NO -
Repair an open in the wire between PCM connector terminal B38 and output shaft (countershaft) speed sensor connector terminal No. 2, then go to step 15.
15. Reconnect all connectors.
16. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II), or press the engine start/stop button to select the ON mode.
17. Clear the DTC with the HDS.
18. Start the engine, disable the VSA by pressing the VSA OFF button, move the shift lever to D, and run the vehicle with the engine speed above 2,000 rpm. Compare the Input Shaft (Mainshaft) Speed and the Output Shaft (Countershaft) Speed with the HDS in the A/T Data List. Slow down, and stop the wheels.
Are the speeds about the same?
YES -
Troubleshooting is complete.
NO -
Replace the PCM Service and Repair.
