DTC P0756 Shift Solenoid "B" Performance (Shift Solenoid Valve S2)

DESCRIPTION

The ECM uses signals from the output shaft speed sensor and input 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 with the shift solenoid valves, valve body or automatic transmission (clutch, brake or gear, etc.).

DTC CodeDTC Detection ConditionTrouble Area
P0756The gear required by ECM does not match actual gear when driving (2 trip detection logic*1, 1 trip detection logic*2).
Shift solenoid valve S2 remains open or closed
Shift solenoid valve SLT remains open or closed
Valve body is blocked
Automatic transmission (clutch, brake or gear, etc.)
*1: w/ OBD
*2: w/o OBD

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

This DTC indicates a stuck ON malfunction or stuck OFF malfunction of the shift solenoid valve S2.


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

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 engine switch off.

Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.

Turn the engine switch on (IG).

Turn the intelligent tester on.

Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Active Test.

According to the display on the tester, perform the Active Test.

  • HINT:
  • While driving, the shift position can be forcibly changed with the intelligent tester.
  • Comparing the shift position commanded by the Active Test with the actual shift position enables you to confirm the problem ().

Control the Shift PositionOperate shift solenoid valve and set each shift position
Press "→" button: Shift up
Press "←" button: Shift down
It is possible to check the operation of the shift solenoid valves.
[Vehicle Condition]
The vehicle speed is 50 km/h (31 mph) or less.
  • HINT:
This test can be conducted when the vehicle speed is 50 km/h (31 mph) or less.
The 4th to 5th up-shift must be performed with the accelerator pedal released.
The 5th to 4th down-shift must be performed with the accelerator pedal released.
Do not operate the accelerator pedal for at least 2 seconds after shifting and do not shift successively.
The shift position commanded by the ECM is shown in the Data List display on the tester.
The shift solenoid valve S2 turns ON/OFF normally when the shift lever is in D.

1.CHECK DTC OUTPUT (IN ADDITION TO DTC P0756)

Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.

Turn the engine switch on (IG).

Turn the intelligent tester on.

Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / DTC.

Read the DTCs using the tester.

2.PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING INTELLIGENT TESTER (SHIFT SOLENOID VALVE SLT)
  • NOTICE:
Perform the test at the normal operating ATF temperature: 50 to 80°C (122 to 176°F).
Be careful to prevent SST hose from interfering with the exhaust pipe.
Perform the test with the A/C turned off.

Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.

Start the engine and warm it up.

Measure the line pressure with SST.

Turn the intelligent tester on.

Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Active Test.

According to the display on the tester, perform the Active Test.

Measure the line pressure.

  • HINT:
OFF: Line pressure up (when Active Test "Activate the Solenoid (SLT)" is performed, ECM commands shift solenoid valve SLT to turn OFF)
ON: No action (normal operation)
[Vehicle Condition]
The vehicle is stopped.
The engine is idling.
  • HINT:
  • *: Activate the Solenoid (SLT) in the Active Test is performed to check the line pressure changes by connecting SST to the automatic transmission, which is used in the Hydraulic Test () as well. Note that the pressure values in the Active Test and hydraulic test are different.
