INSPECTION PROCEDURE

INSPECT TRANSMISSION WIRE (SLU)

CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (TRANSMISSION WIRE - ECM)

INSPECT SHIFT SOLENOID VALVE SLU

DTC P2759 Torque Converter Clutch Pressure Control Solenoid Control Circuit Electrical (Shift Solenoid Valve SLU)

DESCRIPTION

The amount of current flow to the solenoid is controlled by the (*) duty ratio of the ECM output signal. The higher the duty ratio becomes, the higher the lock-up hydraulic pressure becomes during the lock-up operation.

(*) Duty Ratio


The duty ratio is the ratio of the period of continuity in one cycle. For example, if A is the period of continuity in one cycle, and B is the period of non-continuity, then Duty Ratio = A/(A+B) x 100(%).

DTC No.DTC Detection ConditionTrouble Area

  • Refer to the illustration.
TerminalSLU+ - SLU-
Tool setting5 V/DIV., 1 ms./DIV.
Vehicle condition5th (lock-up) or 6th (lock-up) gear

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

When an open or short in a shift solenoid valve (SLU) circuit is detected, the ECM determines there is a malfunction. The ECM will turn on the MIL and store this DTC.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

1.INSPECT TRANSMISSION WIRE (SLU)
Dtc P2759  Torque Converter Clutch Pressure Control Solenoid Control Circuit Electrical (Shift Solenoid Valve Slu). A960E AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. Lexus IS250 IS220d GSE20 ALE20

Disconnect the transmission wire connector from the transmission.

Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

  • Standard resistance:
  • Tester ConnectionSpecified Condition
    20°C (68°F)
    12 (SLU+) - 4 (SLU-)5.0 to 5.6 Ω

Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

  • Standard resistance (Check for short):
  • Tester ConnectionSpecified Condition
    12 (SLU+) - Body ground10 kΩ or higher
    4 (SLU-) - Body ground
NG
Go to step 3
OK
2.CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (TRANSMISSION WIRE - ECM)

Connect the transmission wire connector to the transmission.

Disconnect the ECM connector.

Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

  • Standard resistance:
  • Tester ConnectionSpecified Condition
    20°C (68°F)
    E4-13 (SLU+) - E4-12 (SLU-)5.0 to 5.6 Ω

Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

  • Standard resistance (Check for short):
  • Tester ConnectionSpecified Condition
    E4-13 (SLU+) - Body ground10 kΩ or higher
    E4-12 (SLU-) - Body ground
NG
REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK
REPLACE ECM
3.INSPECT SHIFT SOLENOID VALVE SLU
Dtc P2759  Torque Converter Clutch Pressure Control Solenoid Control Circuit Electrical (Shift Solenoid Valve Slu). A960E AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. Lexus IS250 IS220d GSE20 ALE20

Remove the shift solenoid valve SLU.

Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

  • Standard resistance:
  • Tester ConnectionSpecified Condition
    20°C (68°F)
    1 - 25.0 to 5.6 Ω

Connect the positive (+) lead with a 21 W bulb to terminal 2 and the negative (-) lead to terminal 1 of the solenoid valve connector, then check the movement of the valve.

  • OK:
  • The solenoid makes an operating sound.
NG
REPLACE SHIFT SOLENOID VALVE SLU
OK
