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


DESCRIPTION

The ECM uses signals from the vehicle speed sensor to detect the actual gear position (1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th or 5th 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 or closed
  2. Valve body is blocked
  3. Shift solenoid valve SL2
  4. Automatic transaxle (clutch, brake, gear, etc.)
  5. ECM

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

The ECM commands gear shifts by turning the shift solenoid valves ON/OFF. According to the input shaft revolution, intermediate (counter) shaft revolution and output shaft revolution, the ECM detects the actual gear position (1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th or 5th gear position). 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:
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.
  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 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 RM000000O8L0BDX.html).

  1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.

  1. Turn the ignition switch ON 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 according to the value(s) in the table belowe.

    Standard resistance:
    Tester Connection
    		Condition
    		Specified Condition
    1 - 2
    		20°C (68°F)
    		5.0 to 5.6 Ω

  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 sound.

    OK:
    Valve moves and makes operating sound.
