P1839

DTC P1839 EDS 3 Output Shorted to Ground





Circuit Description
The pressure control valves (EDS valves 3, 4, 5 and 6) are precision electronic pressure regulators that control the operation of the clutches, brakes and lock-up clutch. The valve reduces the system pressure with which the downstream solenoid valves and electrical pressure regulating valves are supplied. It is possible to use smaller solenoid valves as a result.
The EDS require a constant input pressure.

Conditions for Setting the DTC
- Output voltage of the EDS 3 is less than 2 volts.
- No DTC P1840, P1841.
- Immediately after the above condition occurs.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets
- The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) will illuminate.
- The TCM will record operating conditions at the time the diagnostic fails. This information will be stored in the Failure Records buffer.
- Adopt Emergency/ Substitute mode and constant 4th gear by hydraulic control.
- After ignition OFF/ON: 3rd gear by hydraulic control. Possible P, R and N also possible.
- Power supply cut off to the EDS valve.

Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC
- The MIL will turn OFF when the malfunction has not occurred after three-ignition cycle.
- A history DTC will clear after 40 consecutive warm up cycles without a fault.
- Using a scan tool can clear history DTCs.
