General Description

Shift solenoid valve B is installed in the transmission housing. It is controlled by the ON/OFF signal from
the powertrain control module (PCM) to apply line pressure to shift valve B. The signal from the PCM is
output to apply clutch pressure control pressure to the proper gear change clutch according to the gear
change schedule. When the signal to shift solenoid valve B from the PCM is ON, and line pressure is
discharged, shift valve B is inactive. When the signal to shift solenoid valve B from the PCM is OFF, and
line pressure is applied to shift valve B, it operates against the shift valve B spring. The PCM monitors the
input shaft (mainshaft) speed and the output shaft (countershaft) speed at the gear change determined by the
shift schedule. When an improper gear ratio is output compared to the predetermined gear change mode, a
shift solenoid valve B OFF failure is detected and a DTC is stored.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION CHART

Enable Conditions

ENABLE CONDITIONS

Malfunction Threshold

The transmission is held in 4th gear against the 2nd gear command for at least 1.5 seconds.

Driving Pattern

Start the engine, and accelerate the vehicle until the transmission shifts into 5th gear in the D position.



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

Diagnosis Details

Conditions for illuminating the MIL

When a malfunction is detected during the first drive cycle, a Temporary DTC is stored in the PCM
memory. If the malfunction recurs during the next (second) drive cycle, the MIL comes on and the DTC and
the freeze frame data are stored.

Conditions for clearing the MIL

The MIL will be cleared if the malfunction does not recur during three consecutive trips in which the
diagnostic runs.

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

General Description

Shift solenoid valve B is installed in the transmission housing. It is controlled by the ON/OFF signal from
the powertrain control module (PCM) to apply line pressure to shift valve B. The signal from the PCM is
output to apply clutch pressure control pressure to the proper gear change clutch according to the gear
change schedule. When the signal to shift solenoid valve B from the PCM is ON, and line pressure is
discharged, shift valve B is inactive. When the signal to shift solenoid valve B from the PCM is OFF, and
line pressure is applied to shift valve B, it operates against the shift valve B spring. When the wrong gear
ratio is output for a given speed change mode, or when the wrong transmission fluid pressure switch is
turned-on, a shift solenoid valve turn-on malfunction is detected and a DTC is stored.
