Shift Solenoid Valve O/P Test: Test

NOTE:  Keep all foreign particles out of the transmission.

• 1. HDS DLC - Connect
• 2. Shift Solenoid Valve O/P - HDS Function Test
  • 1. Select the Shift Solenoid Valve O/P in the Miscellaneous Test Menu with the HDS
  • 2. Check that Shift Sol O/P is indicated to ON and OFF by three seconds.
  • If indicated to ON and OFF, the solenoid valve O/P is OK. The test is complete, disconnect the HDS.
  • If no indicated to ON and OFF, go to the next step, and test the shift solenoid valve O/P.
  • 3. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.
• 3. Shift Solenoid Valve O/P - Internal Resistance Check

  1. Remove the transmission fluid pan

  2. Disconnect the connector (A)

  3. Measure the shift solenoid valve O/P resistance between the connector (B) terminal No. 1 and body ground.

  Standard: 10.6-13.5 Ω

  • If the resistance is within the standard, go to the next step and check the shift solenoid valve O/P operation.
  • If the resistance is out of the standard, replace the shift solenoid valve O/P .
• 4. Shift Solenoid Valve O/P - Operation Check

  1. Remove the shift solenoid valve O/P (A) .

  2. Connect a tube (B) to the shift solenoid valve O/P.

  3. Blow air into the tube.

  • If the air goes out of the port (C), go to step 4.
  • If the air does not go out of the port (C), replace the shift solenoid valve O/P .

  4. Connect a jumper wire from the positive battery terminal to the shift solenoid valve O/P (B) connector terminal No. 1, and connect another jumper wire from the negative battery terminal to the shift solenoid valve O/P body. Blow air into the tube (A).

  • If the air goes out of the port (C), replace the shift solenoid valve O/P .
  • If the air does not go out of the port (C), repair the wire between the shift solenoid valve O/P and the PCM.
• 5. All Removed Parts - Install the parts in the reverse order of removal.
