STEP 13. Check the harness for an open or short circuit to 
ground between A/T control solenoid valve assembly 
connector C-03 (terminals 6, 7, 8 and 10) and solenoid 
valve connectors C-03-4, C-03-5 and C-03-6.
Q: Is the harness wire in good condition?

YES : Replace the PCM.
NO :  Replace the harness wire.

DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE PROCEDURES

23Ac-204

DTC 36: Torque Converter Clutch Solenoid Valve System

.

Solenoid Valve System Circuit
Refer to 

P.23Ac-147

.

.

CIRCUIT OPERATION
Refer to 

P.23Ac-147

.

.

DTC SET CONDITIONS
If the resistance value for the torque converter clutch 
solenoid valve circuit is greater than 3.5 ohms (open) 
or less than 2.6 ohms (short) for 4 seconds, DTC 36 
is set. The transmission is locked into 3rd gear as a 
fail-safe measure, and the "N" range light flashes 
once per second.

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS (The most likely 
causes for this code to be set are:)

• Malfunction of torque converter clutch solenoid 

valve

• Damaged harness, connector

• Malfunction of the PCM

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tool:

• MB991502: Scan Tool (MUT-II)

STEP 1. Using scan tool MB991502, check actuator test 
item 06: Torque Converter Clutch Solenoid Valve.

CAUTION

To prevent damage to scan tool MB991502, always turn the 
ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before con-
necting or disconnecting scan tool MB991502.
(1) Connect scan tool MB991502 to the data link connector.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Set scan tool MB991502 to actuator test mode for item 06, 

Torque Converter Clutch Solenoid Valve.

• An audible clicking or buzzing should be heard when the 

torque converter clutch solenoid valve is energized.

(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the solenoid valve operating properly?

YES : It can be assumed that this malfunction is intermittent. 

Refer to GROUP 00, How to Use Troubleshooting/
Inspection Service Points 

− How to Cope with 

Intermittent Malfunctions 

P.00-6

.

NO :  Go to Step 2.

STEP 2. Using scan tool MB991502, read the A/T 
diagnostic trouble code.
(1) Connect scan tool MB991502 to the data link connector.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Check for A/T diagnostic trouble code.
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is DTC 54 set? (DTC 54 may be set along with multiple 

DTCs.)
YES : 
Refer to 

P.23Ac-237

 DTC 54: A/T Control Relay 

System.

NO :  Go to Step 3.

STEP 3. Using scan tool MB991502, read the A/T 
diagnostic trouble code.
(1) Connect scan tool MB991502 to the data link connector.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Check for A/T diagnostic trouble code.
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Are DTC 31 and DTC 35 set? (Multiple DTCs may be set.)

YES : Go to Step 8.
NO :  Go to Step 4.

STEP 4. Measure the torque converter clutch solenoid 
valve resistance at A/T control solenoid valve assembly 
connector C-03.
(1) Disconnect connector C-03 and measure at the solenoid 

valve side.

(2) Measure the resistance between solenoid valve assembly 

connector C-03 terminals 7 and 10.

Resistance value: 2.7 

 3.4 ohms [at 20°C (68°F)]

Q: Is the measured resistance 2.7 

 3.4 ohms [at 20°

(68

°F)]?

YES : Go to Step 6.
NO :  Go to Step 5.

STEP 5. Measure the solenoid valve resistance at the 
torque converter clutch solenoid valve connector C-03-4 
inside the transmission.
(1) Disconnect solenoid valve connector C-03-4 and measure 

at the solenoid valve side.

(2) Measure the resistance between torque converter clutch 

solenoid valve terminals 1 and 2.

Resistance value: 2.7 

 3.4 ohms [at 20°C (68°F)]

Q: Is the measured resistance 2.7 

 3.4 ohms [at 20°

(68

°F)?

YES : Replace the harness wire between A/T control 

solenoid valve assembly connector C-03 and the 
solenoid valves.

NO :  Replace the torque converter clutch solenoid valve.
