Title: AB60F AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION / TRANSAXLE: AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SYSTEM: DESCRIPTION (2008 LX570)

DTC

P0982

Shift Solenoid "D" Control Circuit Low (Shift Solenoid Valve S4)

DTC

P0983

Shift Solenoid "D" Control Circuit High (Shift Solenoid Valve S4)

DESCRIPTION

Shifting from 1st to 6th is performed in combination with the ON and OFF operation of shift solenoid valves SL1, SL2, S1, S2, S3, S4 and SR, 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 operated safely. Also, the ECM stops sending current to the open or short circuited shift solenoid valve AB60F AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION / TRANSAXLE: AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SYSTEM: FAIL-SAFE CHART (2008 LX570) .

DTC Code

DTC Detection Condition

Trouble Area

P0982

The ECM detects a short in the shift solenoid valve S4 circuit 2 times when shift solenoid valve S4 is operated (1 trip detection logic).
  • Short in shift solenoid valve S4 circuit
  • Shift solenoid valve S4
  • ECM

P0983

The ECM detects an open in the shift solenoid valve S4 circuit 2 times when shift solenoid valve S4 is not operated (1 trip detection logic).
  • Open in shift solenoid valve S4 circuit
  • Shift solenoid valve S4
  • ECM

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

These DTCs indicate an open or short in the shift solenoid valve S4 circuit. 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. When shift solenoid valve S4 is ON, if its resistance is 8 Ω or less, the ECM determines there is a short in the shift solenoid valve S4 circuit.

When shift solenoid valve S4 is OFF, if its resistance is 100 kΩ or higher, the ECM determines there is an open in the shift solenoid valve S4 circuit AB60F AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION / TRANSAXLE: AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SYSTEM: FAIL-SAFE CHART (2008 LX570) .
