Circuit Description

The 1-2 Shift Solenoid Valve (1-2 SS Valve) controls the fluid flow acting on the 1-2 and 3-4 shift valves. The 1-2 SS Valve is a normally-open exhaust valve that is used with the 2-3 Shift Solenoid Valve (2-3 SS Valve), in order to allow four different shifting combinations.

When the PCM detects a 1-1-4-4 only or a 2-2-3-3 only shift pattern, depending on the state of the mechanical failure, then DTC P0751 sets. DTC P0751 is a type A DTC.

•	The gear range is D4.

•	The vehicle speed is greater than 8 km/h (5 mph).

•	The transmission fluid temperature is 20-130°C (68-266°F).

•	All of the above conditions are met three times and the combination of Conditions 1,2,3 and 4 or Conditions 1,2,3 and 5 occurs three times.

Condition 1:

•	The PCM commands a 1-2 shift.

•	The TP angle is 10-50%.

•	The TP angle is constant within +/- 7%.

•	The vehicle speed is 24-96 km/h (15-60 mph).

•	Within 2 seconds, the engine speed in 3rd gear is 100 RPM less than the last speed in 2nd gear.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

•	The PCM commands D2 line pressure.

•	The PCM inhibits 3-2 downshifts if the vehicle speed is greater than 48 km/h (30 mph).

•	The PCM freezes shift adapts from being updated.

•	The PCM illuminates the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL).

Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC

•	The PCM turns OFF the MIL after three consecutive ignition cycles 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

•	Verify that the transmission meets the specifications in the 4L60-E shift speed chart.

•	Other internal transmission failures may cause more than one shift to occur.

Shift Solenoid Valve State and Gear Ratio 4L60-E

Gear	1-2 Shift Solenoid	2-3 Shift Solenoid	Gear Ratio

4	ON	OFF	0.696:1

Test Description

The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the diagnostic table.

This step tests that the scan tool commanded all shifts and all shift solenoid valves responded correctly, but all the shifts did not occur.

DTC P0751 1-2 Shift Solenoid Valve (1-2 SS Valve) -- Performance (2.2L)

Step

Action

Value(s)

Yes

Was the Powertrain On-Board Diagnostic (OBD) System Check performed?

Go to Step 2

Go to OBD System Check

Install the scan tool.
With the engine OFF, 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 data.

Record the DTC Freeze Frame and Failure Records.
While the engine is operating, raise the drive wheels.
With the transmission in D4 range, use the scan tool to command 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th gears while accelerating the vehicle.

Did you detect a 1-1-4-4 or 2-2-3-3 only shift pattern? (Road testing the vehicle may be necessary.)

Go to Step 3

Go to Diagnostic Aids

Check the shift solenoid/hydraulic circuit for:

•	An internal malfunction.

•	Damaged seals on the shift solenoid valves.

•	Refer to the diagnosis charts.

Did you find and correct a problem?

Go to Step 4

In order to verify your repair, perform the following procedure:

Select DTC.
Select Clear Info.
Operate the vehicle under the following conditions (only if traffic and road conditions permit):

•	Hold the throttle at 20% and accelerate to 88 km/h (55 mph).

•	If the throttle moves more than 6%, stop the vehicle and start over.

Select Specific DTC. Enter DTC P0751.

Has the test run and passed?

System OK

Begin the diagnosis again. Go to Step 1
