The diagnosis system operates in normal mode
during normal vehicle use, and also has a check
mode for technicians to simulate malfunction symp-
toms and perform troubleshooting. Most DTCs use
2 trip detection logic(*) to prevent erroneous detec-
tion. By switching the ECM to check mode when
troubleshooting, the technician can cause the MIL
to light up and for a malfunction that is only detected
once or momentarily.
(TOYOTA hand±held tester) (See page DI±401)

*2 trip detection logic:
When a logic malfunction is first detected, the mal-
function is temporarily stored in the ECM memory.
If the same malfunction is detected again during the
2nd test drive, this 2nd detection causes the MIL to
light up.
(b) Inspect the DLC3.
The vehicle's ECM uses V.P.W. (Variable Pulse Width) for
communication to comply with SAE J1850. The terminal
arrangement of DLC3 complies with SAE J1962 and
matches the V.P.W. format.

HINT:
If your display shows ºUNABLE TO CONNECT TO VEHICLEº
when you have connected the cable of OBD II scan tool or TOY-
OTA hand±held tester to DLC3, turned the ignition switch ON
and operated the scan tool, there is a problem on the vehicle
side or tool side.

If communication is normal when the tool is connected to
another vehicle, inspect DLC3 on the original vehicle.

If communication is still not possible when the tool is con-
nected to another vehicle, the problem is probably in the
tool itself, so consult the Service Department listed in the
tool's instruction manual.

8. MANUAL SHIFTING TEST
HINT:
By this test, it can be determined whether the trouble is within
the electrical circuit or is a mechanical problem in the transaxle.
(a) Disconnect the solenoid wire.
(b) Inspect the manual driving operation.
Check that the shift and gear positions correspond to the
table below.
While driving, shift through the L, 2 and D positions.
Check that the gear change corresponds to the shift posi-
tion.

HINT:
If the L, 2 and D gear positions are difficult to distinguish, do the
above test.
If any abnormality is found in the above test, the problem is in
the transaxle itself.
(c) Connect the solenoid wire.
(d) Clear out the DTC (See page DI±389).

DTC P0753, P0758 Shift Solenoid A/B Electrical Malfunc-
tion (Shift Solenoid Valve No.1/No.2)
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Shifting from 1st to O/D is performed in combination with ON and OFF of the shift solenoid valves No.1 and
No.2 controlled by ECM. If an open or short circuit occurs in either of the shift solenoid valves, the ECM con-
trols the remaining normal shift solenoid valve to allow the vehicle to be operated smoothly (Fail safe func-
tion).
Fail Safe Function:
If either of the shift solenoid valve circuits develops an open or short, the ECM turns the other shift solenoid
ON and OFF to shift to the gear positions shown in the table below. The ECM also turns the shift solenoid
valve SL OFF at the same time. If both solenoids are malfunction, hydraulic control cannot be performed
electronically and must be done manually.
Manual shifting as shown in the following table must be done (In the case of a short circuit, the ECM stops
sending current to the short circuited solenoid).
Check the shift solenoid valve No.1 when DTC P0753 is output and check the shift solenoid valve No.2 when
DTC P0758 is output.
DTC No.DTC Detecting ConditionTrouble Area
P0753
P0758
The ECM checks for an open or short circuit in the shift sole-
noid valves No.1 and No.2 circuit when it changes gear posi-
tion.
The ECM records DTC P0753 or P0758 if condition (a) or (b) is
detected once, but it does not light up MIL.
After 1 sec. ECM detects condition (a) or (b) in a trip again, it
causes the MIL to light up.
(a) When the solenoid is energized, the solenoid resistance is
8 W or less and is counted.
(b) When the solenoid is not energized, the solenoid resistance
is 100 kW or more and is counted.
