General Description 

To engage 1st gear, line pressure is supplied to the 1st clutch piston, engaging the 1st clutch, and the secondary

shaft and the secondary shaft 1st gear are connected and revolve together. Hydraulic pressure is supplied to the 
1st clutch through the ATF strainer --> the ATF pump --> the regulator valve --> the manual valve --> the shift 
valves --> the feed pipe --> 1st clutch piston. (A shift valve failure in the supply route above is detected by the 
malfunction detection of each shift solenoid valve.) The powertrain control module (PCM) computes the ratio 
of the input shaft (mainshaft) speed to the output shaft (countershaft) speed. When the ratio is not the 1st gear 
ratio, it is detected as a malfunction of the hydraulic circuit or the 1st clutch, and a DTC is stored.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION 

Enable Conditions 

ENABLE CONDITIONS 

Malfunction Threshold 

The actual gear ratio must match one of these conditions for at least 12 seconds with the 1st gear command: 



Actual gear ratio > 1st gear ratio by a factor of 1.2  



Actual gear ratio < 1st gear ratio by a factor of 0.75  

Driving Pattern 

Start the engine, shift to D position, and drive the vehicle at a speed of 8 mph (12 km/h) or more for at least 12 
seconds in 1st gear.



Drive the vehicle in this manner only if the traffic regulations and ambient conditions allow.  

Diagnosis Details 

Conditions for illuminating the indicator 

When a malfunction is detected, the D indicator blinks, and the DTC and the freeze frame data are stored in the 
PCM memory. The MIL does not come on. 

Conditions for clearing the DTC 

The DTC and the freeze frame data can be cleared by using the scan tool Clear command or by disconnecting 
the battery.

Fig. 113: Gear Ratio Versus Shift Status Graph 

General Description 

To engage 2nd gear, line pressure is supplied to the 2nd clutch piston, engaging the 2nd clutch, and the 
secondary shaft and the secondary shaft 2nd gear are connected and revolve together. Hydraulic pressure is 
supplied to the 2nd clutch through the ATF strainer --> the ATF pump --> the regulator valve --> the manual 
valve --> the shift valves --> the feed pipe --> 2nd clutch piston. (A shift valve failure in the supply route above 
is detected by the malfunction detection of each shift solenoid valve.) The powertrain control module (PCM) 
computes the ratio of the input shaft (mainshaft) speed to the output shaft (countershaft) speed. When the ratio 
is not the 2nd gear ratio, it is detected as a malfunction of the hydraulic circuit or the 2nd clutch, and a DTC is 
stored.
