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 requested,
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 before and after torque converters even when the ECM
commands lock-up.
(Engine speed is at least 75 rpm greater than input turbine speed.)
b. There is no difference in rotation between before and after torque converters even when the ECM
commands lock-up off.
(The difference between engine speed and input turbine speed is less than 35 rpm.)

DTC P2759: TORQUE CONVERTER CLUTCH PRESSURE CONTROL SOLENOID CONTROL
CIRCUIT ELECTRICAL (SHIFT SOLENOID VALVE SLU)
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The amount of current flow to the solenoid is controlled by the (*) duty ratio of the ECM output signal. The
hi
gher the duty ratio becomes, the higher the lock-up hydraulic pressure becomes during the lock-up operation.
Tester ConnectionSpecified Condition 20°C (68°F)
1 - 25.0 to 5.6 ohms

MONITOR DESCRIPTION
When an open or short in a shift solenoid valve (SLU) circuit is detected, the ECM determines there is a
malfunction. The ECM will turn on the MIL and store this DTC.
