Toyota 4Runner: Pressure Control Solenoid "A" Electrical (Shift Solenoid Valve SL1) (P0748)

Toyota 4Runner Service Manual / Drivetrain / A750e Automatic Transmission / Transaxle / Automatic Transmission System / Pressure Control Solenoid "A" Electrical (Shift Solenoid Valve SL1) (P0748)

DESCRIPTION

Shifting from 1st to 5th is performed in combination with the ON and OFF operation of the shift solenoid valves SL1, SL2, S1, S2 and SR, which are controlled by the ECM. If an open or short circuit occurs in one of the shift solenoid valves, the ECM controls the remaining normal shift solenoid valves to allow the vehicle to be operated smoothly (See page ).

P0748

The ECM checks for an open or short in the shift solenoid valve SL1 circuit while driving and shifting between 4th and 5th gear (1-trip detection logic).

Output signal duty equals 100%.

HINT:

SL1 output signal duty is less than 100% under normal conditions.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

This DTC indicates an open or short in the shift solenoid valve SL1 circuit. The ECM commands gear shifts 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. Then the ECM performs the fail-safe function and turns the other normal shift solenoid valves ON/OFF. In case of an open or short circuit, the ECM stops sending current to the circuit.

While driving and shifting between 4th and 5th gears, if the ECM detects an open or short in the shift solenoid valve SL1 circuit, the ECM determines there is a malfunction (See page ).

PROCEDURE

1.	INSPECT TRANSMISSION WIRE (SHIFT SOLENOID VALVE SL1)

(a) Disconnect the B32 transmission wire connector.

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

Standard Resistance:

Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
12 (SL1+) - 4 (SL1-)	20°C (68°F)	5.0 to 5.6 Ω
12 (SL1+) - Body ground	Always	10 kΩ or higher
4 (SL1-) - Body ground	Always	10 kΩ or higher
