A760E Automatic Transmission
A760E AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION: ELECTRONIC CONTROLLED AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SYSTEM: P2716: Pressure Control Solenoid "D" Electrical (Shift Solenoid Valve SLT)
DTC P2716 - Pressure Control Solenoid "D" Electrical (Shift Solenoid Valve SLT)
DESCRIPTION
The linear solenoid valve (SLT) controls the transmission line pressure for smooth transmission operation based on signals from the throttle position sensor and the vehicle speed sensor. The ECM adjusts the duty ratio* of the SLT solenoid valve to control hydraulic line pressure coming from the primary regulator valve. Appropriate line pressure assures smooth shifting with varying engine outputs.
HINT:
*: The duty ratio is the ratio of the current ON time (A) to the total of the current ON and OFF time (A + B).
Duty Ratio (%) = A / (A + B) x 100
Reference (Using an oscilloscope):
Check the waveform between the terminals SLT+ and SLT- of the ECM connector
Standard:
Refer to the illustration.
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
When an open or short in the linear solenoid valve (SLT) circuit is detected, the ECM interprets this as a fault. The ECM will turn on the MIL and store the DTC.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
PROCEDURE
1. INSPECT TRANSMISSION WIRE (SLT)
(a) Disconnect the transmission wire connector from the transmission.
(b) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard resistance:
(c) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard resistance (Check for short):
NG -- INSPECT SHIFT SOLENOID VALVE SLT
OK -- Continue to next step.
2. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (TRANSMISSION WIRE - ECM)
(a) Connect the transmission wire connector to the transmission.
(b) Disconnect the ECM connector.
(c) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard resistance:
(d) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard resistance (Check for short):
NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK -- REPLACE ECM
3. INSPECT SHIFT SOLENOID VALVE SLT
(a) Remove the shift solenoid valve SLT.
(b) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard resistance:
(c) Connect the positive (+) lead with a 21 W bulb to terminal 2 and the negative (-) lead to terminal 1 of the solenoid valve connector, then check the movement of the valve.
OK:
The solenoid makes an operating sound.
NG -- REPLACE SHIFT SOLENOID VALVE SLT
OK -- REPAIR OR REPLACE TRANSMISSION WIRE
