DTC P0746 PRESSURE CONTROL SOLENOID ºAº
PERFORMANCE (SHIFT SOLENOID VALVE
SL1)
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The ECM uses signals from the vehicle speed sensor to detect the actual gear position (1st, 2nd, 3rd or O/D
gear).
Then the ECM compares the actual gear with the shift schedule in the ECM memory to detect mechanical
problems of the shift solenoid valves and valve body.
DTC No.DTC Detecting ConditionTrouble Area
P0746The gear required by the ECM does not match the actual gear
when driving (2-trip detection logic)

Shift solenoid valve SL1 remains open or closed

Valve body is blocked

Shift solenoid valve SL1

Automatic transaxle (clutch, brake or gear etc.)

ECM
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
The ECM commands gear shifts by turning the shift solenoid valves ºON/OFFº. According to the input shaft
revolution, intermediate (counter) shaft revolution and output shaft revolution, the ECM detects the actual
gear position (1st, 2nd, 3rd or O/D gear position). When the gear position commanded by the ECM and the
actual gear position are not same, the ECM illuminates the MIL.
Example:
When either condition (a) or (b) is met, the ECM detects a malfunction.
(a) The ECM commands the 1st gear, but the actual gear is 2nd.
(b) The ECM commands the 2nd gear, but the actual gear is 1st.

DTC P0748 PRESSURE CONTROL SOLENOID ºAº
ELECTRICAL (SHIFT SOLENOID VALVE
SL1)
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Shifting from 1st to O/D is performed in combination with ºONº and ºOFFº operation of the shift solenoid
valves SL1 and SL2 which is controlled by the ECM. If an open or short circuit occurs in either of the shift
solenoid valves, the ECM controls the remaining normal shift solenoid valve to allow the vehicle to be oper-
ated smoothly (Fail safe function).
DTC No.DTC Detection ConditionTrouble Area

ECM
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
The ECM commands gear shifts by turning the shift solenoid valves ºON/OFFº. When there is an open or
short circuit in any shift solenoid valve circuit, the ECM detects the problem and illuminates the MIL and
stores the DTC. And the ECM performs the fail-safe function and turns the other shift solenoid valves in good
condition ºON/OFFº (In case of an open or short circuit, the ECM stops sending current to the circuit.)
