Circuit/System Description |
The shift control solenoid (SLC1) is installed on the front valve body. The solenoid linearly control hydraulic pressure in response to signals output from the transmission control module TCM. Through this, the SLC1 controls operating hydraulic pressure to the clutch 1 for smooth shifting. According to each shift control solenoid assembly, the transmission shifts from 1st gear into 6th gear and vice versa. As a fail-safe function, if any shift control solenoid assembly abnormality occurs, the TCM will disable the current to the solenoids.

Diagnostic Aids |
When attempting to set solenoid electrical DTCs, ensure the TCM is warmed up and the transmission is operated in 2nd gear long enough to ensure a 3°C (5°F) increase in TCM substrate temperature. This will place the TCM under the optimal conditions to test solenoid electrical DTCs.

Circuit/System Verification |
1. |
Ensure the transmission fluid temperature is between 50-80°C (122-176°F).
|
2. |
Operate the vehicle in 2nd gear long enough to ensure at least a 3°C (5°F) rise in transmission fluid temperature, then operate the vehicle in Park for 5 s.
|
3. |
Observe the scan tool's Clutch Pressure Control Solenoid Valve 1 parameter. The reading should be between 0.1 and 1.1 A.
|
Circuit/System Testing |
Command the Clutch Pressure Control Solenoid Valve 1 with a scan tool. The value should change from 0.0-1.0 A.
Component Testing |
Static Test
1. |
Ignition OFF, remove the K71 Transmission Control Module.
|
2. |
Test for 5-5.6 Ω at 20°C (68°F) between the low reference circuit terminal 10 X2 and the voltage supply circuit terminal 11 X2.
|
3. |
If less than the specified range, test the wiring harness for internal short. If the circuit test normal, replace the Q27A Pressure Control Solenoid Valve 1.
|
4. |
Test for infinite resistance between each terminal and the low reference circuit terminal 10 X2 and also to the voltage supply circuit terminal 11 X2.
|
5. |
If less than the specified range, replace the wiring harness.
|
6. |
If all circuit test normal, perform the
Control Solenoid Valve Inspection (M36 and MXE)
.
|
7. |
If the inspection test normal, replace the control valve body.
