MONITOR DESCRIPTION
This DTC indicates "stuck ON malfunction" or "stuck OFF malfunction" of the shift solenoid valve S2.
The ECM commands gear shifts by turning the shift solenoid valves "ON/OFF". When the gear position
commanded by the ECM and the actual gear position are not same, the ECM illuminates the MIL and stores the
DTC.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:
Performing the ACTIVE TEST using the hand-held tester allows the relay, VSV, actuator and so on to operate
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 together with the CAN VIM (controller area network vehicle interface
module) to the DLC3.
Turbine speed/Output speed (NT/NO)1.23 or more and 1.48 or less (This means actual
gear is 3rd)
Turbine speed/Output speed (NT/NO)0.66 or more and 0.80 or less (This means actual
gear is 5th
Turbine speed/Output speed (NT/NO)0.50 or more and 0.64 or less (This means actual
gear is 6th)
Turbine speed/Output speed (NT/NO)0.50 or more and 0.64 or less (This means actual
gear is 6th)
Page 2788 of 4500

d. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
e. Push the "ON" button of the hand-held tester.
f. Clear the DTC.
g. Select the item "DIAGNOSIS/ENHANCED OBD II/ACTIVE TEST/SHIFT",
h. According to the display on tester, perform the "ACTIVE TEST".
HINT:
While driving, the shift position can be forcibly changed with the hand-held tester.
Comparing the shift position commanded by the ACTIVE TEST with the actual shift position enables you to
confirm the problem (see FAIL
-SAFE CHART ).

HINT:
This test can be conducted when the vehicle speed is 50 km/h (31 mph) or less.
The 4th to 5th and 5th to 6th up-shiftings must be performed with the accelerator pedal released.
The 6th to 5th and 5th to 4th down-shiftings must be performed with the accelerator pedal released.
Do not operate the accelerator pedal for at least 2 seconds after shifting and do not shift successively.
The shift position commanded by the ECM is shown in the DATA LIST/SHIFT display on the hand-held
tester.

DTC P0761: SHIFT SOLENOID "C" PERFORMANCE (SHIFT SOLENOID VALVE S3)
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The ECM uses signals from the output shaft speed sensor and input speed sensor to detect the actual gear
position (1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th or 6th 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.

Gear position during fail-safe operation:
If any malfunction is detected, the ECM changes into the fail-safe mode to shift into the gear positions as shown
in the table below.
