The shift control solenoid assembly (SLC1, SLC2, SLC3, SLB1) and the line pressure control solenoid (SLT) are installed on the front valve body. The solenoids linearly control hydraulic pressure in response to signals output from the transmission control module (TCM). SLC1, SLC2, SLC3, SLB1 controls hydraulic pressure to the clutches (C1, C2, C3) and brake (B1) 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.
• | The ignition voltage is between 10.2 V and 15.5 V. |
• | The engine speed is greater than 500 RPM for 2 seconds. |
• | The transmission is not in emergency mode. |
• | TCM communication is normal. |
• | Transmission fluid temperature is higher than 65°C (149°F). |
• | DTCs P0716. P0717, P0721 and P0722 are not set. |
• | Driving in D range. |
• | Output speed is greater than 300 RPM. |
• | After 10 times of unusual shifting, long time shifting or rapid shifting. |
• | DTC P0780 is a Type C DTC |
• | Torque limitation in "D" range 150 N·m (110 ft-lb), in "R" range 170 N·m (125 ft-lb). |
• | The TCM freezes transmission adaptive functions. |
• | The TCM turns OFF all solenoids. |
• | The TCM allows the vehicle to operate only in second gear and "R" range after a stop. |
• | DTC P0780 is a Type C DTC. |
• | Not failure detection at same gear as failure detected. |
When attempting to set transmission performance DTCs, observe the Freeze Frame and Failure Records to assist in duplicating the failure conditions. Ensure the transmission fluid level, colour and odor is correct and there are no leaks. If there are any other transmission DTCs set, diagnose those first.

⇒ | If the scan tool parameter does not change the proper value and no other DTC than P0729, P0731, P0732, P0733, P0734, P0735, P0736, P0780, P1731 is set, go to Circuit/System Testing. |
⇒ | If any other DTC is set, diagnose that DTC first. |
⇒ | If the DTC resets replace the control valve body. |
Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
• | Control valve body replacement. Refer to Control Valve Body Replacement for replacement, setup and programming. |
• | TCM, refer to Control Module References for replacement, setup and programming. |
⇒ | Perform the Transmission Adaptive Functions. |
