DTC

P2759

Torque Converter Clutch Pressure Control Solenoid Control Circuit Electrical (Shift Solenoid Valve SLU)

DESCRIPTION

The amount of current flow to the shift solenoid valve is controlled by the duty ratio* of the ECM output signal. During the lock-up operation, if the duty ratio increases, the lock-up hydraulic pressure increases.

HINT:

*: The duty ratio is the ratio of the current ON time (A) to the total of the current ON and OFF time (A + B).

Duty Ratio (%) = A / (A + B) x 100



DTC Code

DTC Detection Condition

Trouble Area

P2759

An open or short is detected in the shift solenoid valve SLU circuit for 1 sec. or more while driving (1 trip detection logic).

  • Open or short in shift solenoid valve SLU circuit
  • Shift solenoid valve SLU
  • ECM

Reference: Inspect using an oscilloscope.

Check the waveform of the ECM connector.

Standard:

Terminal No. (Symbol)

Tool Setting

Condition

Specified Condition

C53-10 (SLU+) - C53-11 (SLU-)

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

When an open or short in the shift solenoid valve SLU circuit is detected, the ECM determines that there is a malfunction. The ECM will illuminate the MIL and store this DTC.
