DTC P0776 Pressure Control Solenoid "B" Performance (Shift Solenoid Valve SL2)


DESCRIPTION

The ECM uses signals from the output shaft speed sensor and input speed sensor to detect the actual gear position (1st, 2nd, 3rd or O/D gear).
Then the ECM compares the actual gear with the shift schedule in the ECM memory to detect mechanical problems of the shift solenoid valves, valve body or automatic transaxle (clutch, brake, gear, etc.).

DTC No.
DTC Detection Condition
Trouble Area
P0776
Gear required by the ECM does not match the actual gear when driving (2 trip detection logic)
  1. Shift solenoid valve SL2 remains open
  2. Valve body is blocked
  3. Automatic transaxle (clutch, brake, gear, etc.)
  4. ECM

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

This DTC indicates a stuck ON malfunction or stuck OFF malfunction of the shift solenoid valve SL2.
The ECM commands gear shifts by turning the shift solenoid valves ON/OFF. When the gear position commanded by the ECM and the actual gear position are not the same, the ECM illuminates the MIL and stores the DTC.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

HINT:
Performing the intelligent tester's Active Test allows relay, VSV, actuator and other items to be operated without removing any parts. Performing the Active Test early in troubleshooting is one way to save time.
The Data List can be displayed during the Active Test.
  1. Warm up the engine.
  2. Turn the ignition switch off.
  3. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
  4. Turn the ignition switch on (IG) and turn the tester ON.
  5. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Active Test.
  6. Follow the instructions on the tester and perform the Active Test.
HINT:
While driving, the shift position can be forcibly changed with the tester.
Comparing the shift position commanded by the Active Test with the actual shift position enables you to confirm the problem (RAV4_ACA30 RM000000O8L0BCX.html).

Diagnostic Note
Control the shift position
[Test Details]
Operate the shift solenoid valve and set each shift lever position by yourself
[Vehicle Condition]
  1. IDL: ON
  2. 50 km/h (31 mph) or less
[Other information]
  1. Press "→" button: Shift up
  2. Press "←" button: Shift down
Possible to check the operation of the shift solenoid valves
HINT:
  1. This test can be conducted when the vehicle speed is 50 km/h (31 mph) or less.
  2. The shift position commanded by the ECM is shown in the Data List (shift status) display on the tester.
1.CHECK OTHER DTC OUTPUT (IN ADDITION TO DTC P0776)

  1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.

  1. Turn the ignition switch on (IG) and turn the tester ON.

  1. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / DTC / Current or Pending.

  1. Read the DTCs using the tester.

  1. Remove the shift solenoid valve SL2.

  1. Measure the resistance of the solenoid valve.

    Standard resistance:
    5.0 to 5.6 Ωat 20°C (68°F)

  1. Connect the battery's positive (+) lead with a 21 W bulb to terminal 2 and the negative (-) lead to terminal 1 of the solenoid valve connector. Then check that the valve moves and makes an operating noise.

    OK:
    Valve moves and makes operating noise.

REPLACE SHIFT SOLENOID VALVE SL2
OK


3.INSPECT TRANSMISSION VALVE BODY ASSEMBLY

  1. Check the transmission valve body assembly.

    OK:
    There are no foreign objects on each valve.


NG
REPAIR OR REPLACE TRANSMISSION VALVE BODY ASSEMBLY
OK


4.INSPECT TORQUE CONVERTER CLUTCH ASSEMBLY

  1. Check the torque converter clutch assembly (RAV4_ACA30 RM000001GS000VX.html).

    OK:
    The torque converter clutch operates normally.


NG
REPLACE TORQUE CONVERTER CLUTCH ASSEMBLY
OK
