Circuit Description
The 1-2 Shift Solenoid is fed ignition voltage by circuit 1039
and the ground path is provided by the Powertrain Control Module (PCM), depending
on the solenoids commanded state. When the PCM commands the solenoid OFF,
a ground path is not provided and the filtered line pressure to the solenoid
is exhausted. When the PCM commands the solenoid ON, a ground path is
provided, which energizes the solenoid. This closes the exhaust port, providing
line pressure to the fluid passage.
The PCM monitors the commanded gear and the speed ratio in order to
identify a malfunction in the 1-2 Shift Solenoid Valve.
When the PCM detects a 2-2-3-3 or a 1-1-4-4
only shift pattern, then DTC P0751 sets. DTC P0751 is a type A DTC.

Failure Criteria
Case 1
| • | 1-2 shift is commanded. |
| • | The throttle position is 18-55% and is constant within 3%. |
| • | The vehicle speed is 8-64 km/h (5-40 mph). |
| • | 2nd gear is commanded and, within 2.0 seconds, the engine
speed is 100 RPM greater than the engine speed of the commanded 1st
gear. |
Case 2
| • | 2-3 shift is commanded. |
| • | The throttle position is 10-55% and is constant within 10%. |
| • | The vehicle speed is 32-89 km/h (20-55 mph). |
| • | 3rd gear is commanded and, within 2.5 seconds, the engine
speed is 130 RPM less than the engine speed of the commanded 2nd gear.
|
Case 3
| • | 3-4 shift is commanded. |
| • | The throttle position is 5-40% and is constant within 7%. |
| • | The vehicle speed is 56-121 km/h (35-75 mph). |
| • | 4th gear is commanded and, within 1.0 second, the engine
speed is 1 RPM greater than the engine speed of the commanded 3rd gear.
|
Case 4
| • | Fourth gear is commanded and the TCC is ON. |
| • | The throttle position is 2-30%. |
| • | The speed ratio is 0.97-1.18. |
| • | The TCC slip is 500-1000 RPM for more than 3 seconds. |
Case 5
| • | Fourth gear is commanded and the TCC is ON. |
| • | The throttle position is 2-30%. |
| • | The speed ratio is 0.68-0.82. |
| • | The TCC slip is 0 to +50 RPM for more than 3.0 seconds. |
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
| • | The PCM illuminates the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL). |
| • | The PCM inhibits downshifts to 2nd gear if the vehicle speed is
greater than 48 km/h (30 mph). |
Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC
| • | The PCM turns OFF the MIL after three consecutive trips
without a failure reported. |
| • | A scan tool can clear the DTC from the PCM history. The PCM clears
the DTC from the PCM history if the vehicle completes 40 warm-up cycles without
a failure reported. |
| • | The PCM cancels the DTC default actions when the fault no longer
exists and the ignition is OFF long enough in order to power down the PCM. |
Diagnostic Aids
| • | Check for PRNDL DTC P0705. A PRNDL DTC affects transmission operation.
A PRNDL DTC may set DTC P0751 falsely. |
| • | Inspect the transmission fluid for sediment. |
| • | Inspect the transmission filter for debris. |
Test Description
The number below refers to the step numbers on the diagnostic table.
-
Verify the DTC, and inspect shift solenoid and shift valve for sediment,
debris or damage.
-
If the problem is not corrected in Step 3, replace the
1-2 shift solenoid.

- Install the Scan Tool
.
- Turn the ignition switch to the RUN position.
Important: Before clearing the DTCs, use the scan tool in order to record the Freeze
Frame and Failure Records for reference. The Clear Info function will erase
the stored Freeze Frame and Failure Records from the PCM.
- Record the DTC Freeze Frame and Failure Records, then clear the DTC.
- Inspect for the following conditions:
| • | Shift solenoid screen Assy. 374 for sediment or debris. |
| • | 1-2 shift solenoid for a damaged or missing O-ring. |
| • | 1-2 shift valve sticking due to sediment, debris or damage. |
