A761E AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION: 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










1. Reference: Inspect using an oscilloscope.
Check the waveform of the ECM connector.
OK:
Refer to illustration.






MONITOR DESCRIPTION

When an open or short in the shift 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 (SHIFT SOLENOID VALVE SLT)




(a) Disconnect the E1 wire connector.
(b) Measure the resistance of the transmission wire.
Standard resistance:






NG -- INSPECT SHIFT SOLENOID VALVE SLT
OK -- Continue to next step.
2. CHECK WIRE HARNESS (TRANSMISSION WIRE - ECM)




(a) Disconnect the E3 ECM connector.
(b) Measure the resistance of the wire harness side connector.
Standard resistance:






NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS AND CONNECTOR
OK -- REPLACE ECM
3. INSPECT SHIFT SOLENOID VALVE SLT
(a) Remove the shift solenoid valve SLT.




(b) Measure the resistance of the 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 noise.
OK:
Valve moves and makes operating noise.
NG -- REPLACE SHIFT SOLENOID VALVE SLT
OK -- REPAIR OR REPLACE TRANSMISSION WIRE
