P1777




P1777 STEP MOTOR

Description

- The step motor is included in the control valve assembly.
- The step motor changes the step with turning 4 coils ON/OFF according to the signal from TCM. As a result, the flow of line pressure to primary pulley is changed and pulley ratio is controlled


CONSULT Reference Value in Data Monitor Mode

Remarks: Specification data are reference values.







On Board Diagnosis Logic

- This is an OBD-II self-diagnostic item.
- Diagnostic trouble code "P1777" with CONSULT is detected under the following conditions.
- When operating step motor ON and OFF, there is no proper change in the voltage of TCM terminal which corresponds to it.


Possible Cause

- Step motor
- Harness or connectors (Step motor circuit is open or shorted.)
