A750E AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION: AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SYSTEM: P0976,P0977: Shift Solenoid "B" Control Circuit Low (Shift Solenoid Valve S2)

DTC P0976 - Shift Solenoid "B" Control Circuit Low (Shift Solenoid Valve S2)

DTC P0977 - Shift Solenoid "B" Control Circuit High (Shift Solenoid Valve S2)

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

These DTCs indicate an open or short in the shift solenoid valve S2 circuit. When there is an open or short circuit in any shift solenoid valve circuits, the ECM detects the problem, illuminates the MIL and stores the DTC. When the shift solenoid valve S2 is on, if the resistance is 8 Ohms or less, the ECM determines that there is a short malfunction in the shift solenoid valve S2 circuit.
When the shift solenoid valve S2 is off, if the resistance is 100 kOhms or more, the ECM determines that the shift solenoid valve S2 circuit is open Fail-Safe Chart.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT: The shift solenoid valve S2 is turned ON/OFF normally when the shift lever is in D:





PROCEDURE

1. INSPECT TRANSMISSION WIRE (S2)




(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 S2
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 connector from the ECM.
(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
3. INSPECT SHIFT SOLENOID VALVE S2




(a) Remove the shift solenoid valve S2.
(b) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance:





(c) Connect the battery's positive (+) lead to the terminal of the solenoid valve connector, and the negative (-) lead to the solenoid body. Then check that the valve moves and makes an operating noise.
OK:
The solenoid makes an operating sound.
NG -- REPLACE SHIFT SOLENOID VALVE S2
OK -- REPAIR OR REPLACE TRANSMISSION WIRE
