items at failure detection.
•Turns Solenoid power supply OFF
•Blinks "CHECK TRANS" lamp
•Stores the failure information in failure-memory
*Prohibits failure detection of S1, S2, SL, STH,
Selector position switch, and Oil temp. sensor.
Conditions of turning "CHECK TRANS" off:
Turns "CHECK TRANS" lamp off after ignition is turned
ON
OFF ON.
Reversion conditions from fail-safe:
At failure detection
When a normal judgment is obtained by rechecking
during shifting.
At failure decision
Recovers at the same time as the conditions of
turning “CHECK TRANS” lamp off are satisfied.
Test description:
The following numbers correspond to circled numbers on
the diagnostic char t.
(1) With the key "ON", the voltage between the TCM
terminals (C78-4) and (C78-15 or 19) is 8 to 16V.
(2) When the driving wheels revolve with the 3rd speed
gear, the voltage is 1 V or less.
(3) The solenoid resistance is within the range of 11 to
15
.
Diagnostic aids:
In case of faulty connection, open or shor ted circuit to
the TCM terminal (C78-4), DTC P0753 is displayed. A
intermittent failure may be caused by a poor connection,
rubbed through wire insulation or a wire broke inside the
insulation.Shift

7A–48 AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION (AW30-40LE)
DTC P0758 (FLASHING CODE 32) SOLENOID 2 FAILURE (S2)
D07RY00047Circuit description:
The solenoid S2 changes the hydraulic route with the
signals from the TCM according to the vehicle speed and
the throttle opening to control shifting. When the solenoid
S1 or S2 fails, the hydraulic circuit is mechanically
operated as a backup.
Fail-safe control:
The TCM controls fail-safe by detecting S1, S2 shift
solenoid failure.
Failure detection:
GND SHORT detection
• When SHORT detection continues for 0.3 sec.
• When SHORT failure detection continues 8 times.
Open detection
• When OPEN detection continues for 0.5 sec.
• When OPEN failure detection continues 8 times.
Contents of control:
At failure detection
• Lock-up control inhibit
• Up hill and down hill control inhibit
• Squat control inhibit
• Changes solenoid output pattern as "The shift theory
at shift solenoid failure". (See DTC P0753)
At failure decision
Executes following items in addition to above control
items at failure detection.
• Turns Solenoid power supply OFF
• Blinks "CHECK TRANS" lamp
• Stores the failure information in failure-memory
*Prohibits failure detection of S1, S2, SL, STH,Selector position switch, and Oil temperature sensor.

1 With the key "ON", the voltage between the TCM

2 When the driving wheels revolve with the 2nd
speed gear, the voltage is 8 to 16V.
3 The resistance of the solenoid is in the range of
11 to 15
.

STALL TEST
The object of this test is to check the overall performance of the
transmission and engine by measuring the maximum engine
speeds at the "D" and "R" ranges.
NOTE:
(1) Perform the test at normal operation fluid temperature
(50 – 80
C or 122 – 176F).
(2) Do not continuously run this test longer than 5
seconds.
MEASURE STALL SPEED
1) Chock the four wheels.
2) Mount an engine tachometer.
3) Fully apply the parking brake.
4) Step down strongly on the brake pedal with your left foot.
5) Star t the engine.
6) Shift into the "D" range. Step all the way down on the
accelerator pedal with your right foot. Quickly read the
highest engine rpm.
7) Perform the same test in the "R" range.
EVALUATION
1) If the engine speed is the same for both ranges but lower
than the specified value:
• Engine output is insufficient.
• Stator one-way clutch is not operating properly.
NOTE:
If more than 600 rpm below the specified value, the torque
converter could be faulty.
2) If the stall speed in only "D" range is higher than specified:
• Line pressure too low
• Forward clutch slipping
• No. 2 one-way clutch not operating properly
3) If the stall speed in only "R" range is higher than specified:
• Line pressure too low
• Direct clutch slipping
• No. 3 brake slipping
4) If the stall speed in the "R" and "D" ranges are higher than
specified:
• Line pressure too low
• Improper fluid levelStall speed 2450
150rpm

HYDRAULIC TEST
PREPARATION
1) Warm up the transmission fluid.
2) Remove the transmission case test plug and mount the
hydraulic pressure gauge.
Oil pressure gauge: 5-8840-0093-0
NOTE:
Perform the test at normal operating fluid temperature (50
– 80
C or 122 – 176F).
MEASURE LINE PRESSURE
1) Fully apply the parking brake and chock the four wheels.
2) Start the engine and check idling rpm.
3) Shift into "D" range, step down strongly on the brake pedal
with your left foot and, while manipulating the accelerator
pedal with the right foot, measure the line pressures at the
engine speeds specified in the table.
4) In the same manner, perform the test in "R" range.
EVALUATION
1) If the measured values at all ranges are higher than
specified.
• Pressure control solenoid defective.
• Primary regulator valve defective.
2) If the measured values at all ranges are lower than
specified.
• Primary regulator valve defective.
• Oil pump defective.
• Pressure control solenoid defective.
3) If pressure is low in "D" range only:
• "D" range circuit fluid leakage.
4) If pressure is low in "R" range only:
• "R" range circuit fluid leakage. Engine
