INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1 Check operation of speedometer.
CHECK:
Drive the vehicle and check it the operation of the speedometer in the combination meter is normal.
HINT:
The vehicle speed sensor is operating normally if the speedometer display is normal.
NG Check speedometer circuit. See combination
meter troubleshooting.

DTC P0750, P0755 Shift Solenoid A/B Malfunction
(Shift Solenoid Valve No. 1 / No. 2)
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The ECM uses signals from the vehicle speed sensor to detect the actual gear position (1st, 2nd, 3rd or O/D
gear). The ECM then compares the actual gear with the shift schedule in the ECM memory to detect mechan-
ical trouble of the shift solenoid valves and valve body.

P0750
P0755During normal driving, the gear required by the ECM does not
match the actual gear (2 trip detection logic)Shift solenoid valve No. 1 / No. 2 is stuck open or closed
Valve body is blocked up or stuck
HINT:
Check the shift solenoid valve No. 1 when DTC P0750 is output and check shift solenoid valve No. 2 when
DTC P0755 is output.
INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1 Check shift solenoid valve No. 1 or No. 2 operation.
PREPARATION:
(a) Remove the oil pan.
(b) Remove the shift solenoid valve No. 1 or No. 2.
CHECK:
(a) Applying 490 kPa (5 kgf/cm2, 71 psi) of compressed air,
check that the shift solenoid valves do not leak air.
(b) When battery positive voltage is supplied to the shift sole-
noid valves, check they open.
NG Replace shift solenoid valve No. 1 or No. 2.
OK
2 Check valve body (See page DI−141).
NG Repair or replace valve body.
OK
Repair transaxle (See page AX−15).
