FAIL-SAFE CHART

1. Fail-safe

This function minimizes the loss of operation when any abnormality occurs in a sensor or solenoid.

Fail-safe Control List

Malfunction Part

Function

Transmission revolution sensor (NT)

During a transmission revolution sensor (NT) malfunction, shift control is performed based on the transmission revolution sensor (SP2) signal.

Transmission revolution sensor (SP2)

During a transmission revolution sensor (SP2) malfunction, shift control is performed based on the wheel speed sensor signal.

ATF temperature sensors (No. 1 and No. 2)

During an ATF temperature sensor malfunction, up-shifting to 5th and 6th is prohibited.

Shift solenoid valve SL1, SL2, SL3 and SL4

Stop the conduction of electric power to a failed solenoid and shift gears by turning on/off normal solenoids. If all solenoids are malfunctioning, gears will be selected through mechanical hydraulic circuits.

Shift solenoid valve SLT

During a shift solenoid valve SLT malfunction, the current to the shift solenoid valve is stopped. However, shifting is performed through normal clutch pressure control.

Shift solenoid valve SLU

During a shift solenoid valve SLU malfunction, the current to the shift solenoid valve is stopped. This stops lock-up control, thus decreasing fuel economy.
