MONITOR DESCRIPTION
This DTC indicates a problem with the park/neutral position switch or the wire harness in the park/neutral position switch circuit.
The park/neutral position switch detects the shift lever position and sends a signal to the ECM.
For security, the park/neutral position switch detects the shift lever position so that the engine can be started only when the shift lever is in P or N.
The park/neutral position switch sends a signal to the ECM according to the shift lever position (P, R, N, D or S).
The ECM determines that there is a problem with the switch or related parts if it receives more than 1 position signal simultaneously. The ECM will illuminate the MIL and store the DTC.
The ATF (Automatic Transmission Fluid) temperature sensor converts the ATF temperature into a resistance value which is input into the ECM.
The ECM applies a voltage to the temperature sensor through ECM terminal THO1.
The sensor resistance changes with the ATF temperature.
One terminal of the sensor is grounded so that the sensor resistance and voltage decrease as the temperature becomes higher.
The ECM calculates the ATF temperature based on the voltage signal.

| P0711 | Either condition is met: 1. Conditions (a), (b), (c), (d), (e) and (f) are met (2-trip detection logic): (a) After the engine is stopped, 5 hours or more elapse before the engine is started. (b) 10 minutes elapse after the engine is started. (c) The vehicle is driven 4.7 km (3.0 miles) or more after the engine is started. (d) IAT is 15°C (59°F) or higher. (e) ECT is 15°C (59°F) or higher. (f) ATF temperature is below 20°C (68°F). 2. Conditions (a) and (b) are met (2-trip detection logic): (a) Engine coolant temperature is below 35°C (95°F) after the engine is started. (b) ATF temperature is 110°C (230°F) or higher when the engine coolant temperature reaches 60°C (140°F) after 10 sec. or more. | Transmission wire (No. 1 ATF temperature sensor) |
This DTC indicates that there is a problem with the output from the Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF) temperature sensor and that the sensor itself is defective. The ATF temperature sensor converts the ATF temperature to an electrical resistance value. Based on the resistance, the ECM determines the ATF temperature and detects an open or short in the ATF temperature sensor circuit or a fault in the ATF temperature sensor.
After running the vehicle for a certain period, the ATF temperature should increase. If the ATF temperature is below 20°C (68°F) after running the vehicle for a certain period, the ECM interprets this as a fault, turns on the MIL and stores the DTC.
When the ATF temperature is 110°C (230°F) or higher and the engine coolant temperature takes 10 seconds or more to reach 60°C (140°F) after a cold start, the ECM also determines this to be a fault, turns on the MIL and stores the DTC.
Refer to DTC P0711. Refer to DESCRIPTION .

(B) 10 sec. or more have elapsed after the engine start when the engine coolant temperature and intake air temperature are higher than -29.375°C (-20.875°F), and the ATF temperature sensor resistance is higher than 156 kohms for 0.5 sec. or more. | Open in ATF temperature sensor circuit ATF temperature sensor (No. 1 ATF temperature sensor) ECM |
The ATF temperature sensor converts the ATF temperature to an electrical resistance value. Based on the resistance, the ECM determines the ATF temperature and detects an open or short in the ATF temperature sensor circuit. If the resistance value of the ATF temperature sensor is below 79 ohms*1 or higher than 156 kohms*2, the ECM interprets this as a fault in the ATF temperature sensor or wiring. The ECM will illuminate the MIL and store the DTC.
HINT
- *1: 150°C (302°F) or higher is indicated regardless of the actual ATF temperature.
- *2: -40°C (-40°F) is indicated regardless of the actual ATF temperature.
- The ATF temperature can be checked on the Techstream display.
This sensor detects the rotation speed of the turbine which indicates the input speed of the transmission. By comparing the input turbine speed signal NT with the output speed sensor signal SP2, the ECM detects the shift timing of the gears and appropriately controls the engine torque and hydraulic pressure according to various conditions, and as a result, the gears shift smoothly.

Scheme 399
This DTC indicates that a pulse is not output from the speed sensor NT (turbine (input) speed sensor) or is output only a little. The NT terminal of the ECM detects the pulse signal from the speed sensor NT (input RPM). The ECM outputs a gear shift signal by comparing the input speed sensor NT signal with the output speed sensor SP2 signal.
While the vehicle is operating in 4th, 5th or 6th gear with the shift lever in D, if the input shaft speed is less than 300 rpm*1 although the output shaft speed is 1000 rpm or more*2, the ECM detects the trouble, illuminates the MIL and stores the DTC.
HINT
- *1: A pulse is not output or is irregularly output.
- *2: The vehicle speed is approximately 50 km/h (30 mph) or more.
The speed sensor SP2 detects the rotation speed of the transmission output shaft and sends signals to the ECM. The ECM determines the vehicle speed based on these signals. An AC voltage is generated in the speed sensor SP2 coil as the parking gear mounted on the rear planetary gear assembly rotates, and this voltage is sent to the ECM. The parking gear on the rear planetary gear is used as the timing rotor for this sensor.
The gear shift point and lock-up timing are controlled by the ECM based on the signals from this vehicle speed sensor and the throttle position sensor signal.

The output speed sensor SP2 monitors the output shaft speed. The ECM controls the gear shift point and lock-up timing based on the signals from the output speed sensor SP2 and throttle position sensor.
If the ECM detects no signal from the output speed sensor SP2 even while the vehicle is moving, it will conclude that there is a malfunction of the output speed sensor SP2. The ECM will illuminate the MIL and store the DTC.
The ECM uses signals from output speed sensor SP2 and input speed sensor NT to detect the actual gear position (1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th or 6th 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 and automatic transmission (clutch, brake, gear, etc.).

This DTC indicates that the 1-2 shift valve in the valve body is locked with the spring compressed.
The ECM commands gear shifts by turning the shift solenoid valves ON/OFF and switching oil pressure to the valves in the valve body.
The ECM calculates the "actual" transmission gear by comparing the signals from the input speed sensor (NT) and the output speed sensor (SP2). The ECM can detect many mechanical problems in the shift solenoids, valve body, transmission clutches, brakes and gears. If the ECM detects that the actual gear position and the commanded gear position are different, it will illuminate the MIL and store the DTC.
The ECM calculates the amount of heat absorbed by the friction material based on the difference in speed (clutch slippage) between the turbine and output shaft. The ECM illuminates the MIL and stores this DTC when the amount of heat absorption exceeds the specified value.
There are two causes of speed difference.
- When shift solenoid valve SLT remains ON, oil pressure decreases, which causes the clutch engagement force to decrease.
- When a shift solenoid valve remains ON or OFF, the gear position commanded by the ECM and the actual gear position are not the same.
Note. If you continue driving under these conditions, the clutch will burn out and the vehicle will no longer be drivable.
Shifting from 1st to 6th is performed in combination with the ON and OFF operation of shift solenoid valves SL1, SL2, S1, S2, S3, S4 and SR, which are controlled by the ECM.

| P0983 | ECM detects an open in the solenoid valve S4 circuit 2 times when solenoid valve S4 is not operated (1-trip detection logic). | Open in shift solenoid valve S4 circuit Shift solenoid valve S4 ECM |
These DTCs indicate an open or short in the shift solenoid valve S4 circuit. When there is an open or short circuit in any shift solenoid valve circuit, the ECM detects the problem, illuminates the MIL and stores the DTC. When shift solenoid valve S4 is ON, if its resistance is 8 ohms or less, the ECM determines there is a short in the shift solenoid valve S4 circuit.
When shift solenoid valve S4 is OFF, if its resistance is 100 kohms or higher, the ECM determines there is an open in the shift solenoid valve S4 circuit. Refer to FAIL-SAFE CHART .
Shifting from 1st to 6th is performed in combination with the ON and OFF operation of shift solenoid valves SL1, SL2, S1, S2, S3, S4 and SR, which are controlled by the ECM. If an open or short circuit occurs in any of the shift solenoid valves, the ECM controls the remaining normal shift solenoid valves to allow the vehicle to be operated safely. Also, the ECM stops sending current to the open or short-circuited solenoid. Refer to FAIL-SAFE CHART .

| P2716 | Open or short is detected in the shift solenoid valve SLT circuit for 1 second or more while driving (1-trip detection logic). | Open or short in shift solenoid valve SLT circuit Shift solenoid valve SLT ECM |
When an open or short in the shift solenoid valve SLT circuit is detected, the ECM interprets this as a fault. The ECM will turn on the MIL and store the DTC.
The Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF) temperature sensor is on the transmission, just in front of the oil cooler inlet pipeline.
If the ECM detects an abnormally high ATF temperature near this sensor, a message is displayed on the multi-information display.
HINT
- The temperature of the ATF easily rises when towing, climbing hills, in traffic, etc.
- If the ATF temperature sensor becomes short-circuited, the signal that indicates that the ATF temperature is 150°C (302°F) or higher is input into the ECM.
Vehicle conditions when the sensor is normal and when the sensor is short-circuited are indicated in the table below.
| No. 2 ATF Temperature Sensor State | Detection Condition | Symptom | Recovery Condition |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sensor is normal | ATF temperature higher than 150°C (302°F) | Message is displayed on multi-information display | ATF temperature below 135°C (275°F)*1 |
| ATF temperature higher than 130°C (266°F) | Shift point too high | ATF temperature below 110°C (230°F) | |
| When conditions (a) and (b) are satisfied. (a) ATF temperature higher than 130°C (266°F) (b) Engine coolant temperature higher than 95°C (203°F) | Lock-up in 3rd gear*2 | ATF temperature below 110°C (230°F)*1 and engine coolant temperature higher than 95°C (203°F) | |
| Sensor is short-circuited | Any conditions | Message is displayed on multi-information display Shift point too high | Symptoms persist |
| Engine coolant temperature higher than 95°C (203°F) | Lock-up in 3rd gear*2 | Symptoms persist |
HINT
*1: When the ATF is normal, it decreases to below 135°C (275°F) within 5 minutes with the shift lever in P or N in an idling state.
*2: When ATF temperature is normal, transmission lock-up occurs in 5th or 6th gear with the shift lever in D or with the S6 range selected, in 5th gear with the S5 range selected, and in 4th gear with the S4 range selected.

| P2742 | No. 2 ATF temperature sensor resistance is below 25 ohms (0.046 V) for 0.5 seconds or more (1-trip detection logic). | Short in No. 2 ATF temperature sensor circuit Transmission wire (No. 2 ATF temperature sensor) ECM |
| P2743 | One of the following conditions is met (1-trip detection logic): (A) 15 min. or more have elapsed after the engine start when the engine coolant temperature or intake air temperature is -29.375°C (-20.875°F) or less, and the ATF temperature sensor resistance is higher than 156 kohms (4.915 V) for 0.5 sec. or more. (B) 10 sec. or more have elapsed after the engine start when the engine coolant temperature and intake air temperature are higher than -29.375°C (-20.875°F), and the ATF temperature sensor resistance is higher than 156 kohms (4.915 V) for 0.5 sec. or more. | Open in No. 2 ATF temperature sensor circuit Transmission wire (No. 2 ATF temperature sensor) ECM |
The ATF temperature sensor converts the ATF temperature into an electrical resistance value. Based on the resistance, the ECM determines the ATF temperature, and the ECM detects an open or short in the ATF temperature circuit. If the resistance value of the ATF temperature sensor is below 25 ohms*1 or higher than 156 kohms*2, the ECM interprets this as a fault in the ATF sensor or wiring. The ECM will display a message on the multi-information display and store the DTC.
HINT
- *1: 150°C (302°F) or higher is indicated regardless of the actual ATF temperature.
- *2: -40°C (-40°F) is indicated regardless of the actual ATF temperature.
- The ATF temperature can be checked on the Techstream display.
The ECM uses the signals from the throttle position sensor, air flow meter, turbine (input) speed sensor, output speed sensor and crankshaft position sensor to monitor the engagement condition of the lock-up clutch.
Scheme 401
Then the ECM compares the engagement condition of the lock-up clutch with the lock-up schedule in the ECM memory to detect mechanical problems of shift solenoid valve SLU, the valve body and torque converter clutch.
| DTC Code | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area |
|---|---|---|
| P2757 | Lock-up does not occur when driving in the lock-up range (normal driving at 80 km/h (50 mph)), or lock-up remains ON in the lock-up OFF range (2-trip detection logic). | Shift solenoid valve SLU remains open or closed Valve body is blocked Shift solenoid valve SLU Torque converter clutch Automatic transmission (clutch, brake, gear, etc.) Line pressure is too low |
Torque converter lock-up is controlled by the ECM based on the turbine (input) speed sensor NT, output speed sensor SP2, engine speed, engine load, engine temperature, vehicle speed, transmission temperature and gear selection. The ECM determines the lock-up status of the torque converter by comparing the engine speed (NE) to the input turbine speed (NT). The ECM calculates the actual transmission gear by comparing input turbine speed (NT) to the output shaft speed (SP2). When conditions are appropriate, the ECM requests lock-up by applying control voltage to shift solenoid SLU. When shift solenoid valve SLU is turned ON, it applies pressure to the lock-up relay valve and locks the torque converter clutch.
If the ECM detects no lock-up after lock-up has been requested or if it detects lock-up when it is not requested, the ECM interprets this as a fault in shift solenoid valve SLU or lock-up system performance.
The ECM will illuminate the MIL and store the DTC.
Example
When one of the following conditions is met, the system determines that there is a malfunction.
- There is a difference in speed between the input side (engine speed) and output side (input turbine speed) of the torque converter when the ECM commands lock-up ON. The engine speed is at least 70 rpm more than the input turbine speed.
- There is no difference in rotation between the input side (engine speed) and output side (input turbine speed) of the torque converter when the ECM commands lock-up OFF. The difference between the engine speed and input turbine speed is less than 35 rpm.
The amount of current flow to the solenoid is controlled by the ECM. During the lock-up operation, if the current increases, the lock-up hydraulic pressure increases.

| P2759 | Open or short is detected in the shift solenoid valve SLU circuit for 1 second or more while driving (1-trip detection logic). | Open or short in shift solenoid valve SLU circuit Shift solenoid valve SLU ECM |
When an open or short in the shift solenoid valve SLU circuit is detected, the ECM determines that there is a malfunction. The ECM will illuminate the MIL and store the DTC.
The ECM detects the signal from the transfer L4 position switch.
This DTC indicates that the transfer L4 position switch remains on.
| DTC Code | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area |
|---|---|---|
| P2772 | Transfer L4 position switch remains on while the vehicle is being driven under the following conditions for 1.8 sec. or more (1-trip detection logic): (a) Output shaft speed is between 1000 and 3000 rpm. (b) Transfer position switch is in H4. | Short in transfer L4 position switch circuit Transfer system ECM |
The ECM monitors the transfer-case L4 position switch to determine when the transfer-case L4 gears are engaged. If the L4 position switch indicates that the transfer-case L4 gears are engaged under the following conditions, the ECM will conclude that there is a malfunction of the L4 position switch, illuminate the MIL and store the DTC
- The transfer-case shifter is in the "H4" position.
- The transfer-case output shaft speed is between 1000 and 3000 rpm.
- The specified time period has elapsed.
After moving the shift lever to S, it is possible to switch the shift range between "1" (S1 range) and "6" (S6 range) using the transmission control switch.
Shifting to "+" once raises the shift range by one, and shifting to "-" once lowers the shift range by one.
