AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION

23A-264

• Transmission range switch rationality: only one

signal.

• Time after shift changing finish: 2 seconds or

more.

Judgement Criteria

• Output speed: [(input speed + 200 r/min) /

reverse gear ratio] or more. (4 seconds)

• Output speed: [(input speed - 200 r/min) / reverse

gear ratio] or less. (4 seconds)

• If DTC 46 (P0736) is set consecutively four times,

the transmission is locked into 3rd gear as a
fail-safe measure, and the "N" range light flashes
once per second.

OBD-II DRIVE CYCLE PATTERN <DTC 46
(P0736)>
Start the engine, and drive in R range at 15 km/h (9
mph) or more for 10 seconds.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS (THE MOST LIKELY
CAUSES FOR THIS CODE TO BE SET ARE:)

• Malfunction of the input shaft speed sensor

• Malfunction of the output shaft speed sensor

• Malfunction of the PCM

• Malfunction of the reverse clutch retainer

• Malfunction of the direct planetary carrier

• Malfunction of the low-reverse brake system

(DTC 41 or DTC 46)

• Malfunction of the underdrive clutch system (DTC

41, DTC 42, DTC 43 or DTC 44)

• Malfunction of the second brake system (DTC 42

or DTC 45)

• Malfunction of the overdrive clutch system (DTC

43, DTC 44 or DTC 45)

• Malfunction of the reverse clutch system (DTC

46)

• Malfunction of the direct clutch system (DTC 44

or DTC 45)

• Malfunction of the reduction brake system (DTC

41, DTC 42, DTC 43 or DTC 46)

• Electrical noise generated

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tool:

• MB991958: Scan Tool (MUT-III Sub Assembly)

• MB991824: V.C.I.

• MB991827: MUT-III USB Cable

• MB991911: MUT-III Main Harness B

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION DIAGNOSIS

TSB Revision

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION

23A-265

STEP 1. Using scan tool MB991958, read the A/T
diagnostic trouble code.

CAUTION

To prevent damage to scan tool MB991958, always turn the
ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before con-
necting or disconnecting scan tool MB991958.
(1) Connect scan tool MB991958 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 set?

YES <DTC 22 set> : Refer to

P.23A-71

, DTC 22: Input

Shaft Speed Sensor System.

YES <DTC 23 set> : Refer to

P.23A-91

, DTC 23: Output

Shaft Speed Sensor System.

YES <DTC 31 set> : Refer to

P.23A-177

, DTC 31:

Low-Reverse Solenoid Valve System.

YES <DTC 32 set> : Refer to

P.23A-191

, DTC 32:

Underdrive Solenoid Valve System.

YES <DTC 33 set> : Refer to

P.23A-203

, DTC 33: Second

Solenoid Valve System.

YES <DTC 34 set> : Refer to

P.23A-215

, DTC 34:

Overdrive Solenoid Valve System.

YES <DTC 35 set> : Refer to

P.23A-227

, DTC 35:

Reduction Solenoid Valve System.

NO : Go to Step 2.

STEP 2. Check the hydraulic pressure.
Each hydraulic pressure of the elements below, which DTCs
indicate, should be within the standard value.

P.23A-26

• DTC 41: Underdrive clutch, low-reverse brake and reduc-

tion brake.

• DTC 42: Underdrive clutch, second brake and reduction

brake.

• DTC 43: Underdrive clutch, overdrive clutch and reduction

brake.

• DTC 44: Underdrive clutch, overdrive clutch and direct

clutch.

• DTC 45: Overdrive clutch, direct clutch and second brake.

• DTC 46: Reverse clutch and low-reverse brake and reduc-

tion brake.

Q: Does the hydraulic pressures meet the standard value

range?
YES : Go to Step 5.
NO <out of the range in one place> : Go to Step 4.
NO <out of the range in all places> : Go to Step 3.

STEP 3. Adjust the line pressure.
Adjust the line pressure. Refer to

P.23A-41

, Line Pressure

Adjustment. Then check the symptom.
Q: Is the symptom eliminated?

YES : The procedure is complete.
NO : Go to Step 4.

STEP 4. Disassemble and clean the valve body.
Check the O-ring installation bolts for looseness and valve
body for damage. Repair or replace the faulty parts. Refer to
GROUP 23B, Valve Body

P.23B-63

Replace the valve body assembly if the damages are thought
to be irreparable. Then check the symptom.
Q: Is the repair possible and the symptom eliminated?

YES : The procedure is complete.
NO : Go to Step 6.

STEP 5. Replace the PCM.
(1) Replace the PCM.
(2) Test drive the vehicle.
(3) Check for A/T diagnostic trouble code.
Q: Were any A/T DTCs set?

YES : Go to Step 6.
NO : The procedure is complete.
