Toyota Tacoma (2015-2018) Service Manual / Ac60e Automatic Transmission / Transaxle / Automatic Transmission System(for 2tr-fe) / Pressure Control Solenoid "A" Performance (Shift Solenoid Valve SL1) (P0746)

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

The ECM uses the vehicle speed signal and signals from the transmission revolution sensors (NT, SP2) to detect the actual gear (1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th or 6th gear).

The ECM compares the actual gear with the shift schedule in the ECM memory to detect mechanical problems of the shift solenoid valves, transmission valve body assembly or automatic transmission assembly (clutch, brake or gear etc.).

DTC No.

DTC Detection Condition

Trouble Area

P0746

Either condition is met (2 trip detection logic):

  • The engine revs freely when a shift to 1st, 2nd, 3rd or 4th gear is commanded.
  • Either condition is met twice:
    • When a shift to 5th gear is commanded, 4th gear is engaged.
    • When a shift to 6th gear is commanded, 4th gear is engaged.
  • Shift solenoid valve SL1 remains open or closed
  • Transmission valve body assembly is blocked
  • Automatic transmission assembly (clutch, brake or gear etc.)

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

The ECM commands gear shifts by turning the shift solenoid valves on and off. According to the input turbine speed and output shaft speed, the ECM detects the actual gear (1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th or 6th gear). When the gear commanded by the ECM and the actual gear are not the same, the ECM illuminates the MIL and stores the DTC.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

NOTICE:

  • Perform the universal trip to clear permanent DTCs (See page Perform registration and/or initialization when parts related to the ).
  • Perform registration and/or initialization when parts related to the automatic transmission are replaced (See page ).

Diagnostic Note

Control the Shift Position

Operates the shift solenoid valves to allow gears to be selected manually.
  • Press "→" button: Up-shift occurs
  • Press "←" button: Down-shift occurs

Can be used to check the operation of the shift solenoid valves.

Up-shifts and down-shifts should be performed consecutively. A 10 second interval is required between gear changes.

Do not down-shift at high speeds. Doing so will damage the automatic transmission.

[Vehicle Condition]

  • 50 km/h (31 mph) or less

HINT:

  • This test can be conducted when the vehicle speed is 50 km/h (31 mph) or less.
  • The 4th to 5th and 5th to 6th up-shift must be performed with the accelerator pedal released.
  • The 6th to 5th and 5th to 4th down-shift must be performed with the accelerator pedal released.
  • Do not operate the accelerator pedal for at least 2 seconds after shifting and do not shift successively.
  • The gear commanded by the ECM is shown in the Data List / Shift Status display on the Techstream.

(h) Compare the ECM commanded gear and the actual gear.

HINT:

  • *1: Neutral
  • *2: If shift solenoid valve SLT is stuck on, the line pressure will be low. Therefore, the amount of torque that can be transmitted by each gear is lower than the normal limit. When the engine power exceeds this lowered limit, the engine speed will increase freely.
  • *3: When shift solenoid valve SLT is stuck off, gear shifting is normal.
