.

PROBABLE CAUSES

• Malfunction of TC-SST-ECU

DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE

STEP 1. Scan tool CAN bus diagnostics
Using scan tool MB991958, diagnose the CAN bus lines.
Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Go to Step 2.
NO :  Repair the CAN bus lines. (Refer to GROUP 54C 

− 

Troubleshooting 

P.54C-14

.) After repairing the CAN 

bus line, go to Step 2.

STEP 2. Check whether the DTC is reset.
Q: Is DTC No. P181C set?

YES : Replace the TC-SST assembly. (Refer to 

P.22C-341

.)

NO :  Intermittent malfunction. (Refer to GROUP 00 

− How 

to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction 

P.00-15

.)

DTC P181E: Clutch 2 (Pressure low range out)

CAUTION

• If there is any problem in the CAN bus lines, 

an incorrect diagnostic trouble code may be 
set. Prior to this diagnosis, diagnose the CAN 
bus lines.

• Whenever the ECU is replaced, ensure that 

the CAN bus lines are normal.

.

DIAGNOSTIC FUNCTION

TC-SST-ECU checks that the clutch 2 pressure is 
normal.

.

DESCRIPTIONS OF MONITOR METHODS

The pressure of the clutch 2 is too low.

.

MONITOR EXECUTION

• Continuous

.

MONITOR EXECUTION CONDITIONS 
(OTHER MONITOR AND SENSOR)

Other Monitor (There is no temporary DTC stored 

in memory for the item monitored below)

• P0846: Clutch 2 pressure sensor system (Poor 

performance)

• P0847: Clutch 2 pressure sensor system (Output 

low range out)

• P0848: Clutch 2 pressure sensor system (Output 

high range out)

• P1844: Shift fork 3 malfunction

• P184B: Shift fork 4 malfunction

Sensor (The sensor below is determined to be 

normal)

• Clutch 2 pressure sensor
