A750E AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION: AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SYSTEM: P0778: Pressure Control Solenoid "B" Electrical (Shift Solenoid Valve SL2)
P0778 - Pressure Control Solenoid "B" Electrical (Shift Solenoid Valve SL2)

DESCRIPTION

Shifting from 1st to 5th is performed in combination with the ON and OFF operation of the shift solenoid valves S1, S2, SR, SL1 and SL2 which are controlled by the ECM. If an open or short circuit occurs in any of the shift solenoid valves, the ECM controls the remaining normal shift solenoid valves to allow the vehicle to be driven smoothly Fail-Safe Chart.





MONITOR DESCRIPTION

This DTC indicates an open or short in the shift solenoid valve SL2 circuit. The ECM controls the gearshift by turning the shift solenoid valves ON/OFF. When there is an open or short circuit in any shift solenoid valve circuit, the ECM detects the problem, illuminates the MIL and stores the DTC. The ECM also performs the fail-safe function and turns the other functioning shift solenoid valves ON/OFF. (If an open or short circuit is detected, the ECM cuts the current to the circuit.)

If the ECM detects an open or short in the shift solenoid valve SL2 circuit, the ECM determines that there is a malfunction Fail-Safe Chart.

HINT
The shift solenoid valve SL2 is turned on/off normally when the shift lever is in the D position:





PROCEDURE

1. INSPECT TRANSMISSION WIRE (SL2)

(a) Disconnect the transmission wire connector from the transmission.





(b) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

Standard Resistance:

NG -- INSPECT SHIFT SOLENOID VALVE SL2
OK -- Continue to next step.

2. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (TRANSMISSION WIRE - ECM)

(a) Connect the transmission wire connector to the transmission.





(b) Disconnect the ECM connectors.

(c) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

Standard Resistance:

NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR

OK -- REPLACE ECM Removal

3. INSPECT SHIFT SOLENOID VALVE SL2 P0776

NG -- REPLACE SHIFT SOLENOID VALVE SL2 Disassembly

OK -- REPAIR OR REPLACE TRANSMISSION WIRE Removal
