STEP 2. Using scan tool MB991958, read the A/T
diagnostic trouble code.

(1) Connect scan tool MB991958 to the data link connector.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Check for A/T diagnostic trouble code.
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is DTC 54 set? (DTC 54 may be set along with multiple

DTCs).
YES : Refer to

P.23A-319

DTC 54: A/T Control Relay

System.

NO : Go to Step 3.

STEP 3. Using scan tool MB991958, read the A/T
diagnostic trouble code.

(1) Connect scan tool MB991958 to the data link connector.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.

(3) Check for A/T diagnostic trouble code.
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is DTC 31 set?

STEP 4. Measure the torque converter clutch solenoid
valve resistance at A/T control solenoid valve assembly
connector B-02.

(1) Disconnect connector B-02 and measure at the solenoid

valve side.

(2) Measure the resistance between solenoid valve assembly

connector B-02 terminals 7 and 10.

Resistance value: 2.7

− 3.4 Ω [at 20°C (68°F)]

Q: Is the measured resistance 2.7

− 3.4 Ω [at 20°C (68°F)]?

YES : Go to Step 6.
NO : Go to Step 5.

STEP 5. Measure the solenoid valve resistance at the
torque converter clutch solenoid valve connector B-02-4
inside the transmission.

(1) Disconnect solenoid valve connector B-02-4 and measure

at the solenoid valve side.

(2) Measure the resistance between torque converter clutch

solenoid valve terminals 1 and 2.

Resistance value: 2.7

− 3.4 Ω [at 20°C (68°F)]

Q: Is the measured resistance 2.7

− 3.4 Ω [at 20°C (68°F)?

YES : Replace the harness wire between A/T control

solenoid valve assembly connector B-02 and the
solenoid valves.

NO : Replace the torque converter clutch solenoid valve.
