Troubleshooting

DTC P0768 SHIFT SOLENOID "D" ELECTRICAL MALFUNCTION

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION

DTC Detection Condition:




Shifting from 1st to 5th is performed in combination with ON and OFF operation of the shift solenoid valves SL1, SL2, SL3, S4 and SR which is controlled by the ECM. If an open or short circuit occurs in either of the shift solenoid valves, the ECM controls the remaining normal shift solenoid valve to allow the vehicle to be operated smoothly (Fail safe function).

HINT: Check the shift solenoid valve SL1 when DTC P0753 is output, check the shift solenoid valve SL2 when DTC P0758 is output, check the shift solenoid valve SL3 when DTC P0763 is output, check the shift solenoid valve S4 when DTC P0768 is output and check the shift solenoid valve SR when DTC P1818 is output.




Fail safe function:
If either of the shift solenoid valve circuits develops an open or short, the ECM turns the other shift solenoid ON and OFF in order to shift into the gear positions shown in the table.

Manual shifting as shown in the given table must be done (In case of a short circuit, the ECM stops sending the current to the short circuit solenoid).
