Fail-Safe Chart
FAIL-SAFE CHART1. FAIL-SAFE CHART
This function minimizes the loss of the ECT functions when a malfunction occurs in each sensor or solenoid.
HINT: *1: Artificial Intelligence Shift (AI-SHIFT) control
In addition to the switching of the shift pattern through the pattern select switch, the AI-SHIFT control enables the ECM to estimate the road conditions and the driver's intention in order to automatically select the optimal shift pattern.
(a) Fail-safe operation for electronically malfunctioning shift solenoid valve (S1, S2, S3, S4 and SR).
HINT: Fail-safe operation in the event of an electric system malfunction.
Fail-safe function:
If either of the shift solenoid valve circuits has an open or short failure, the ECM turns the other shift solenoid "ON" and "OFF" in order to shift into the gear positions shown in the table.
In case of an open or short circuit, the ECM stops sending the current to the open or short circuited solenoid.
Even if starting the engine again in the fail-safe mode, the gear position remains in the same position.

HINT:
^ *2: Actual gear shift (gear position) under fail-safe operation.
^ X: OFF (the ECM stops sending current to a malfunctioning solenoid valve)
^ ->: For electrical malfunction, the ON/OFF condition is shown to the left of the "->".
^ ->: For fail-safe mode, the ON/OFF condition is shown to the right of the "->".
^ E/B: Engine brake.
(b) Fail-safe operation for mechanical malfunction.
HINT:
Fail-safe operation in the event of a mechanical system malfunction.
Fail-safe function:
The ECM controls the gear position as shown in the table when malfunctions occur.
Fail-safe chart for mechanical malfunction:
HINT:
^ *2: Actual gear shift (gear position) under fail-safe operation.
^ *3: Under engine braking, downshifting to 1st or 2nd gear is prohibited.
