DTC P0730 BELT DAMAGE

Revision: 2004 November

2004 Murano

DTC P0730 BELT DAMAGE

PFP:31935

Description

ACS002IU

TCM selects the gear ratio using the engine load (throttle position), the primary pulley revolution speed, and
the secondary pulley revolution speed as input signal. Then it change the operating pressure of the primary
pulley and the secondary pulley and change the groove width of the pulley.

CONSULT-II Reference Value

ACS002T4

Remarks: Specification data are reference values.

On Board Diagnosis Logic

ACS002IV

●

This is not an OBD-II self-diagnostic item.

●

TCM calculates the actual gear ratio with input speed sensor (primary speed sensor) and output speed
sensor (secondary speed sensor).

●

Diagnostic trouble code “BELT DAMG” with CONSULT-II is detected, when TCM receives the unexpected
gear ratio detected.

Possible Cause

ACS002IW

Transaxle assembly

DTC Confirmation Procedure

ACS002T5

CAUTION:

●

Always drive vehicle at a safe speed.

●

Be careful not to rev engine into the red zone on the tachometer.

NOTE:
If “DTC Confirmation Procedure” has been previously performed, always turn ignition switch OFF and
wait at least 5 seconds before performing the next test.
After the repair, perform the following procedure to confirm the malfunction is eliminated.

WITH CONSULT-II

Turn ignition switch ON and select “DATA MONITOR” mode for
“TRANSMISSION” with CONSULT-II.

Make sure that output voltage of CVT fluid temperature sensor
is within the range below.
FLUID TEMP SEN: 1.0 - 2.0V
If out of range, drive the vehicle to decrease the voltage
(warm up the fluid) or stop engine to increase the voltage
(cool down the fluid)

Select “DATA MONITOR” mode for “TRANSMISSION” with
CONSULT-II.

Start engine and maintain the following conditions for at least 30
consecutive seconds.
TEST START FROM 0 km/h (0 MPH)
CONSTANT ACCELERATION: Keep 30 sec or more
VEHICLE SPEED: 10 km/h (6 MPH) or more

DTC P0740 TORQUE CONVERTER CLUTCH SOLENOID VALVE

Revision: 2004 November

2004 Murano

DTC P0740 TORQUE CONVERTER CLUTCH SOLENOID VALVE

PFP:31940

Description

ACS00210

●

The torque converter clutch solenoid valve is activated by the TCM in response to signals sent from the
vehicle speed and throttle position sensors. Lock-up piston operation will then be controlled.

●

Lock-up operation, however, is prohibited when CVT fluid temperature is too low.

●

When the accelerator pedal is depressed (less than 2/8) in lock-up condition, the engine speed should not
change abruptly. If there is a big jump in engine speed, there is no lock-up.

CONSULT-II Reference Value

ACS00211

Remarks: Specification data are reference values.

On Board Diagnosis Logic

ACS00212

●

This is an OBD-II self-diagnostic item.

●

Diagnostic trouble code “TCC SOLENOID/CIRC” with CONSULT-II or P0740 without CONSULT-II is
detected under the following conditions.

–

When TCM detects an improper voltage drop when it tries to operate the solenoid valve.

Possible Cause

ACS00213

●

Torque converter clutch solenoid valve

●

Harness or connectors
(Solenoid circuit is open or shorted.)

DTC Confirmation Procedure

ACS00214

CAUTION:

Always drive vehicle at a safe speed.

WITH CONSULT-II

Turn ignition switch ON. (Do not start engine.)
