P0746

DTC P0746: Abnormality in Hydraulic Control System Function

DIAGNOSTIC FUNCTION
TCM determines that the malfunction is present when pulley ratio becomes higher (pulley ratio range: 2.349 to 0.394).

DESCRIPTIONS OF MONITOR METHODS
^ The status with the pulley ratio of 3.5 or more continues for 0.1 second or with the pulley ratio of 2.7 or more continues for 0.2 second.

MONITOR EXECUTION
^ Continuous

MONITOR EXECUTION CONDITIONS (OTHER MONITOR AND SENSOR)

Other Monitor (There is no temporary DTC stored in memory for the item monitored below)
^ P0741: Abnormality in lockup function
^ P0841: Abnormality in line pressure sensor function

Sensor (The sensor below is determined to be normal)
^ Not applicable

Judgement Criteria
^ Pulley ratio (primary pulley ratio/secondary pulley ratio): more than 3.5. (0.1 second)
^ Pulley ratio (primary pulley ratio/secondary pulley ratio): more than 2.7. (0.2 second)

OBD-II DRIVE CYCLE PATTERN
The primary revolution is more than 500 rpm for 0.2 second.

PROBABLE CAUSES
^ Abnormal line pressure
^ Malfunction of TCM

DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE

STEP 1. Check other diagnosis codes.

Q: Are other diagnosis codes set?
YES: Carry out the appropriate troubleshooting.
NO: Go to Step 2.

STEP 2. M.U.T.-III data list
Item 33: Line pressure SOL. output current (Refer to Data List Reference Table.) Data List Reference Table

Q: Is the check result normal?
YES: Intermittent malfunction
NO: Go to Step 3.

STEP 3. Line Pressure Check
Carry out "hydraulic test". Component Tests and General Diagnostics

Q: Is the check result normal?
YES: Go to Step 4.
NO: Repair according to the hydraulic pressure test diagnosis table.

STEP 4. Symptom recheck after erasing diagnosis code

Q: Is the check result normal?
YES: Intermittent malfunction
NO: Replace TCM.
