DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE

CAUTION:

Be careful of the driving speed.

1.PREPARATION BEFORE OPERATION 1

If another “DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE” occurs just before, turn ignition switch OFF and wait for at least 10 seconds, then perform the next test.

>> GO TO 2.

2.PREPARATION BEFORE OPERATION 2

With CONSULT


  1. Start the engine.
  2. Select “Data Monitor” in “TRANSMISSION”.
  3. Select “FLUID TEMP”.
  4. Confirm that the CVT fluid temperature is in the range below.

FLUID TEMP : 20В°C (68В°F) or more

With GST


  1. Start the engine.
  2. Set the CVT fluid to 20В°C (68В°F) or more.

NOTE:

When the ambient temperature is 20В°C (68В°F), the CVT fluid usually increases to 50 to 80В°C (122 to 176В°F) with driving in an urban area for approximately 10 minutes.

Is the CVT fluid 20В°C (68В°F) or more? YES >> GO TO 3.

NO >> 1. Warm the transaxle.

2. GO TO 3.

3.CHECK DTC DETECTION

  1. Drive the vehicle.
  2. Maintain the following conditions for 40 seconds or more.

Selector lever : “D” position

Accelerator pedal position : 1.0/8 or more

Vehicle speed : 40 km/h (25 MPH) or more

  1. Stop the vehicle
  2. Check the first trip DTC.

Is “P0744” detected? YES >> Go to TM-189, "Diagnosis Procedure".

NO >> INSPECTION END

Diagnosis Procedure

1.CHECK LINE PRESSURE

Perform line pressure test. Refer to TM-149, "Work Procedure".

Is the inspection result normal? YES >> GO TO 2.

NO >> Repair or replace the malfunction items.

2.CHECK TORQUE CONVERTER CLUTCH SOLENOID VALVE

  1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
  2. Disconnect CVT unit connector.
  3. Check torque converter clutch solenoid valve. Refer to TM-189, "Component Inspection".

Is the inspection result normal? YES >> Check intermittent incident. Refer to GI-39, "Intermittent Incident".

NO >> Repair or replace the malfunction items.

Component Inspection

1.CHECK TORQUE CONVERTER CLUTCH SOLENOID VALVE

Check resistance between CVT unit connector terminal and ground.

    Where is the torque converter clutch solenoid located?

    A torque converter clutch solenoid controls the flow of fluid to the torque converter. It is located near the transmission and the engine's rear. An electromagnetic coil controls the solenoid. It moves a plunger inside the solenoid shaft when it is activated.

    Can you replace a torque converter clutch solenoid?

    Replacing A Torque Converter Clutch Solenoid Whenever any of these fail, you will not be able to generate the necessary pressure in the torque converter to shift gears effectively. It is very common to replace all these parts when replacing a TCC solenoid. All of these parts can go out at the same time.

    Where is the TCC sensor located?

    Where Is The TCC Solenoid Located. The 4l60e TCC Solenoid is located on the front passenger side of the transmission near the valve body.
