AA80E Automatic Transmission: Automatic Transmission System








AA80E AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION: AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SYSTEM: P0776: Pressure Control Solenoid "B" Performance (Shift Solenoid Valve SL2)

DTC P0776 - Pressure Control Solenoid "B" Performance (Shift Solenoid Valve SL2)

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

Based on signals from the transmission speed sensors (NT, SP2 and NC3), gear position is detected.
If the detected gear position is different than the commanded gear position, the TCM detects related mechanical problems in the shift solenoid valves, valve body and automatic transmission.
HINT: Gear shift position when a problem occurs in shift solenoid valve SL2:





*: Neutral





MONITOR DESCRIPTION

The TCM commands gear shifts by turning the shift solenoid valves on or off. According to the input shaft revolution, intermediate (counter) shaft revolution and output shaft revolution, the TCM detects the actual gear position (1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th or 8th gear position). When the gear position commanded by the TCM and the actual gear position are not the same, the TCM illuminates the MIL.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

PROCEDURE

1. CHECK DTC OUTPUT (IN ADDITION TO DTC P0771, P0776 AND P2714)
(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
(b) Turn the engine switch on (IG).
(c) Turn the Techstream on.
(d) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / ECT / Trouble Codes.
(e) Read the DTCs using the Techstream.
Result:





HINT: If any other codes besides P0771, P0776 and P2714 are output, perform troubleshooting for those DTCs first.

C -- GO TO DTC CHART
B -- INSPECT SHIFT SOLENOID VALVE SL2
A -- Continue to next step.

2. CLEAR DTC AND PERFORM STALL SPEED TEST
(a) Clear the DTCs DTC Check / Clear.
HINT: Write down the currently output DTCs before clearing them.
(b) Perform the stall speed test Mechanical System Tests.
Result:






B -- INSPECT SHIFT SOLENOID VALVE SLT
A -- Continue to next step.

3. CLEAR DTC AND PERFORM RUNNING TEST
(a) Clear the DTCs DTC Check / Clear.
HINT: Write down the currently output DTCs before clearing them.
(b) Start the engine, drive the vehicle and perform the inspection.
Result:





HINT: *: If the gear is shifted to 5th gear or above, gear shifts will no longer be able to be performed. When performing the test again, first clear the DTCs.

C -- INSPECT SPEED SENSOR TERMINAL (NC3 TERMINAL)
B -- INSPECT SHIFT SOLENOID VALVE SL2
A -- Continue to next step.

4. INSPECT SHIFT SOLENOID VALVE SR




(a) Remove the shift solenoid valve SR Disassembly.
(b) Measure the resistance of the shift solenoid valve.
Standard resistance:





(c) Connect the battery's positive (+) lead to the terminal of the solenoid valve connector, and the negative (-) lead to the solenoid body. Then check that the valve moves and makes an operating sound.
OK:
Valve moves and makes operating sound.
OK -- INSPECT TRANSMISSION VALVE BODY ASSEMBLY
NG -- REPLACE SHIFT SOLENOID VALVE SR
5. INSPECT SHIFT SOLENOID VALVE SL2




(a) Remove the shift solenoid valve SL2 Disassembly.
(b) Measure the resistance of the shift solenoid valve.
Standard resistance:





(c) Connect the battery's positive (+) lead with a 21 W bulb to terminal 2 and the negative (-) lead to terminal 1 of the solenoid valve connector. Then check that the valve moves and makes an operating sound.
OK:
Valve moves and makes operating sound.
OK -- INSPECT TRANSMISSION VALVE BODY ASSEMBLY
NG -- REPLACE SHIFT SOLENOID VALVE SL2
6. INSPECT SHIFT SOLENOID VALVE SLT
