INSPECT SHIFT SOLENOID VALVE SL3

DTC P0798 Pressure Control Solenoid "C" Electrical (Shift Solenoid Valve SL3)


DESCRIPTION

Shifting from 1st to 5th is performed in combination with "ON" and "OFF" operation of the shift solenoid valves SL1, SL2, SL3, S4 and SR which are controlled by the ECM. If an open or short circuit occurs in either of the shift solenoid valves, the ECM controls the remaining normal shift solenoid valves to allow the vehicle to be operated smoothly (Fail safe function).

Trouble Area
P0798
  1. The ECM checks for an open or short in the shift solenoid valve SL3 circuit while driving and shifting gears.
    (1-trip detection logic)
    1. Output signal duty equals to 100 %.
      (NOTE: SL3 output signal duty is less than 100 % under normal condition.)
  1. Open or short in shift solenoid valve SL3 circuit
  2. Shift solenoid valve SL3
  3. ECM

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

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 and illuminates the MIL and stores the DTC. And 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.)
