DTC P2757 Torque Converter Clutch Pressure Control Solenoid Performance (Shift Solenoid Valve SLU) |
DESCRIPTION
The TCM uses the signals from the throttle position sensor, air-flow meter, turbine (input) speed sensor, output speed sensor and crankshaft position sensor to monitor the engagement condition of the lock-up clutch.
Then the TCM compares the engagement condition of the lock-up clutch with the lock-up schedule in the TCM memory to detect mechanical problems of shift solenoid valve SLU, the valve body and torque converter assembly.
DTC Code | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area |
P2757 | Lock-up does not occur when driving in the lock-up range (normal driving at 80 km/h (50 mph)), or lock-up remains ON in the lock-up OFF range (2-trip detection logic). |
|
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
Torque converter assembly lock-up is controlled by the TCM based on the turbine (input) speed sensor NT, output speed sensor SP2, engine speed, engine load, engine temperature, vehicle speed, transmission temperature and gear selection. The TCM determines the lock-up status of the torque converter assembly by comparing the engine speed (NE) to the input turbine speed (NT). The TCM calculates the actual transmission gear by comparing the input turbine speed (NT) to the output shaft speed (SP2). When conditions are appropriate, the TCM requests lock-up by applying control voltage to shift solenoid SLU. When shift solenoid valve SLU is turned on, it applies pressure to the lock-up relay valve and locks the torque converter assembly.If the TCM detects no lock-up after lock-up has been requested or if it detects lock-up when it is not requested, the TCM interprets this as a fault in shift solenoid valve SLU or the lock-up system performance.
The TCM will turn on the MIL and store the DTC.
Example:
When either of the following is met, the system judges it as a malfunction.
- There is a difference in speed between the input side (engine speed) and output side (input turbine speed) of the torque converter assembly when the TCM commands lock-up on (the engine speed is at least 70 rpm more than the input turbine speed).
- There is no difference in speed between the input side (engine speed) and output side (input turbine speed) of the torque converter assembly when the TCM commands lock-up off (the difference between the engine speed and input turbine speed is less than 35 rpm).
INSPECTION PROCEDURE
ACTIVE TEST |
- HINT:
- Using the intelligent tester to perform Active Tests allows relays, VSVs, actuators and other items to be operated without removing any parts. This non-intrusive functional inspection can be very useful because intermittent operation may be discovered before parts or wiring is disturbed. Performing Active Tests early in troubleshooting is one way to save diagnostic time. Data List information can be displayed while performing Active Tests.
Warm up the engine.
Turn the ignition switch off.
Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
Turn the ignition switch to ON.
Turn the intelligent tester on.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / ECT / Active Test.
According to the display on the tester, perform the Active Test.
ECT Tester Display Test Part Control Range Diagnostic Note Activate the Lock Up Control shift solenoid valve SLU to set automatic transmission to lock-up ON or OFF Possible to check shift solenoid valve SLU operation.
[Vehicle Condition]- Throttle valve opening angle: Less than 35%
- Vehicle speed: 60 km/h (37 mph) or more
- HINT:
- This test can be conducted when the vehicle speed is 60 km/h (37 mph) or more.
- This test can be conducted with the 5th gear.
- Throttle valve opening angle: Less than 35%
Lightly depress the accelerator pedal and check that the engine speed does not change abruptly.
- HINT:
- When changing the accelerator pedal opening angle while driving, if the engine speed does not change, lock-up is on.
- Slowly release the accelerator pedal in order to decelerate, but do not fully release the pedal.
(Fully releasing the pedal will close the throttle valve and lock-up may be turned off automatically.)
1.CHECK DTC OUTPUT (IN ADDITION TO DTC P2757) |
Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
Turn the ignition switch to ON.
Turn the intelligent tester on.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / ECT / DTC.
Read the DTCs using the tester.
Result Result Proceed to Only P2757 is output A P2757 and other DTCs are output B - HINT:
- If any other codes besides P2757 are output, perform troubleshooting for those DTCs first.

2.INSPECT SHIFT SOLENOID VALVE SLU |
Remove shift solenoid valve SLU.
![]() |
Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
- Standard Resistance:
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition 1 - 2 20°C (68°F) 5.0 to 5.6 Ω
Apply 12 V battery voltage to the shift solenoid valve and check that the valve moves and makes an operating noise.
- OK:
Measurement Condition Specified Condition - Battery positive (+) with a 21 W bulb → Terminal 2
- Battery negative (-) → Terminal 1
Valve moves and makes an operating noise - Battery positive (+) with a 21 W bulb → Terminal 2
