Shift Solenoid: Testing and Inspection




Solenoid Valve On-Vehicle Inspection

1) Disconnect negative (-) cable at battery.
2) Disconnect connector (1) from solenoid harness.





3) Check for proper terminal connection to solenoid connector.
4) Check resistance of each solenoid valve and its circuit.

If faulty condition is found, replace CVT assembly.

Line pressure control solenoid valve resistance: [A]
Between line pressure control solenoid valve terminal "8" and CVT case: 3.0 - 9.0 ohms at 20 °C (68 °F)

Secondary pressure control solenoid valve resistance: [B]
Between secondary pressure control solenoid valve terminal "7" and CVT case: 3.0 - 9.0 ohms at 20 °C (68 °F)

TCC solenoid valve resistance: [C]
Between TCC solenoid valve terminal "6" and CVT case: 3.0 - 9.0 ohms at 20 °C (68 °F)

Lock-up / select switching solenoid valve resistance: [D]
Between Lock-up / select switching solenoid valve terminal "5" and CVT case: 17 - 38 ohms at 20 °C (68 °F)
