Fig. 128: Shift Solenoid Valve Driving Signal Combination Table

General Description

Shift solenoid valve B is installed in the transmission housing. It is controlled by the ON/OFF signal from the
powertrain control module (PCM) to apply line pressure to shift valve B. The signal from the PCM is output to
apply clutch pressure control pressure to the proper gear change clutch according to the gear change schedule.
When the signal to shift solenoid valve B from the PCM is OFF, and line pressure is discharged, shift valve B is
inactive. When the signal to shift solenoid valve B from the PCM is ON, and line pressure is applied to shift
valve B, it operates against the shift valve B spring. The PCM monitors the mainshaft speed and the
countershaft speed at the gear change determined by the shift schedule. When an improper gear ratio is output
compared to the predetermined gear change mode, a shift solenoid valve B ON failure is detected and a DTC is
stored.

Diagnosis Details

Conditions for illuminating the MIL

When a malfunction is detected during the first drive cycle, a Temporary DTC is stored in the PCM memory. If
the malfunction recurs during the next (second) drive cycle, the MIL comes on and the DTC and the freeze
frame data are stored.

Conditions for clearing the MIL

The MIL will be cleared if the malfunction does not recur during three consecutive trips in which the diagnostic
runs.

The MIL, the DTC, the Temporary DTC, and the freeze frame data can be cleared by using the scan tool Clear
command or by disconnecting the battery.
