INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:
Performing the ACTIVE TEST using the hand±held tester allows the relay, VSV, actuator and so on to oper-
ate without parts removal. Performing the ACTIVE TEST as the first step of troubleshooting is one method
to shorten labor time.
It is possible to display the DATA LIST during the ACTIVE TEST.
(a) Warm up the engine.
(b) Turn the ignition switch off.
(c) Connect the hand±held tester to the DLC3.
(d) Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
(e) Turn on the tester.
(f) Select the item ºDIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II / ACTIVE TESTº.
(g) According to the display on tester, perform the ºACTIVE TESTº.
ItemTest DetailsDiagnostic Note
LINE PRESS UP *
[Test Details]
Operate the shift solenoid SLT and raise the line pressure.
[Vehicle Condition]

Vehicle Stopped.

IDL: ON
[HINT]
OFF: Line pressure up (When the active test of ºControl the Line Pres-
sure Upº is performed, the ECM commands the SLT solenoid to turn
off).
ON: No action (normal operation)
±
*: ºLINE PRESS UPº in the ACTIVE TEST is performed to check the line pressure changes by connecting
the SST to the automatic transaxle, which is used in the HYDRAULIC TEST (See page DI±540) as well.
HINT:

The pressure values in ACTIVE TEST and HYDRAULIC TEST are different from each other.

Normally, the line pressure detected in the ACTIVE TEST is approximately half of the value detected
in the HYDRAULIC TEST's stall test.

DTC P2740 Transmission Fluid Temperature Sensor ºBº
Circuit
DTC P2742 Transmission Fluid Temperature Sensor ºBº
Circuit Low Input
DTC P2743 Transmission Fluid Temperature Sensor ºBº
Circuit High Input
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
ATF (Automatic Transmission Fluid) temperature sensor No.2 is on the transmission and just in front of the
oil cooler inlet pipeline.
If ECM detects the abnormally high temperature of ATF by this sensor, it draws driver's attention by illuminat-
ing the warning lamp.
HINT:

The temperature of ATF easily rises when towing, climbing hills and in traffic, etc.

If the ATF temperature sensor No.2 becomes short±circuited, the signal that indicates the ATF temper-
ature is 150C (302F) or higher is input in ECM.
Vehicle conditions when the sensor is normal and when the sensor is short±circuited are indicated
in the table below.

HINT:
*1: When AT fluid temperature is normal, transmission locks up at 5th gear with the shift lever in D position
and at 4th gear with the shift lever in 4 position.
*2: When AT fluid temperature is in normal range, it decreases to less than 135C (275F) within 5 minutes
with the shift lever in P or N position in an idling state.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION
The Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF) temperature sensor converts ATF temperature to an electrical re-
sistance value. Based on the resistance, the ECM determines the ATF temperature, and the ECM detects
an open or short in the AFT temperature circuit. If the resistance value of the ATF temperature is less than
25 W (0.046 V) or more than 156 kW (4.915 V), the ECM interprets this as a fault in the ATF sensor or wiring.
The ECM will turn on the MIL and store the DTC.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION
Torque converter lock±up is controlled by the ECM based on the turbine (input) speed sensor NT, output
speed sensor SP2, engine rpm, engine load, engine temperature, vehicle speed, transmission temperature,
and gear selection. The ECM determines the lock±up status of the torque converter by comparing the engine
rpm (NE) to the input turbine rpm (NT). The ECM calculates the actual transmission gear by comparing input
turbine rpm (NT) to output shaft rpm (SP2). When conditions are appropriate, the ECM requests ºlock±upº
by applying control voltage to the shift solenoid SLU. When the SLU is turned on, it applies pressure to the
lock±up relay valve and locks the torque converter clutch.
If the ECM detects no lock±up after lock±up has been requested or if it detects lock±up when it is not re-
quested, the ECM interprets this as a fault in the shift solenoid valve SLU or lock±up system performance.
The ECM will turn on the MIL and store the DTC.
Example:
When any of the following is met, the system judges it as a malfunction.
(a) There is a difference in rotation between the input side (engine speed) and output side (input turbine
speed) of the torque converter when the ECM commands lock±up.
(Engine speed is at least 70 rpm greater than input turbine speed.)
(b) There is no difference in rotation between the input side (engine speed) and output side (input turbine
speed) of the torque converter when the ECM commands lock±up off.
(The difference between engine speed and input turbine speed is less than 35 rpm.)
