DTC P0793 Intermediate Shaft Speed Sensor "A"


DESCRIPTION

This sensor detects the rotation speed of the counter gear. By comparing the counter gear speed signal (NC) with the direct clutch speed sensor signal (NT), the ECM detects the shift timing of the gears and approximately controls the engine torque and hydraulic pressure according to various conditions. Thus smooth gear shifting is performed.

DTC No.
DTC Detection Condition
Trouble Area
P0793
ECM detects conditions (a), (b) and (c) continuously for 5 sec. or more (1 trip detection logic):
(a) Vehicle speed: 50 km/h (31 mph) or more
(b) Park/Neutral position switch (NSW) is OFF
(c) Speed sensor NC: Less than 300 rpm
  1. Open or short in speed sensor NC circuit
  2. Speed sensor NC
  3. ECM

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

The NC terminal of the ECM detects revolution signals from speed sensor NC (counter gear rpm). The ECM calculates gear shifts by comparing speed sensor NT with speed sensor NC.
While the vehicle is operating in the 2nd, 3rd or O/D gear position with the shift lever on D, if the counter gear revolution is less than 300 rpm*1 and the output shaft revolution is more than 1,000 rpm*2, the ECM detects the trouble, illuminates the MIL and stores the DTC.
*1: Pulse is not output or is irregularly output.
*2: The vehicle speed is 50 km/h (31 mph) or more.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

HINT:
Using the intelligent tester's Data List allows switch, sensor, actuator and other item values to be read without removing any parts. Reading the Data List early in troubleshooting is one way to save time.
NOTICE:
In the table below, the values listed under "Normal Condition" are reference values. Do not depend solely on these reference values when deciding whether a part is faulty or not.
  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 / Data List.
  6. Follow the instructions on the tester and read the Data List.

HINT:
  1. SPD (NC) is always 0 rpm while driving:
    Open or short in the sensor or circuit.
  2. SPD (NC) is always more than 0 and less than 300 rpm while driving the vehicle at 50 km/h (31 mph) or more:
    Sensor trouble, improper installation, or intermittent connection trouble of the circuit.
