TCM FunctionUCS002CE
The function of the TCM is to:

Receive input signals sent from various switches and sensors.

Determine required line pressure, shifting point, lock-up operation, and engine brake operation.

Send required output signals to the respective solenoids.
CONTROL SYSTEM OUTLINE
The automatic transmission senses vehicle operating conditions through various sensors or signals. It always
controls the optimum shift position and reduces shifting and lock-up shocks.

DTC P1716 TURBINE REVOLUTION SENSOR
Revision: August 20072004 QX56
DTC P1716 TURBINE REVOLUTION SENSORPFP:31935
DescriptionUCS002FC
The turbine revolution sensor detects input shaft rpm (revolutions per minute). It is located on the input side of
the automatic transmission. Monitors revolution of sensor 1 and sensor 2 for non-standard conditions.
CONSULT-II Reference ValueUCS002FD
On Board Diagnosis LogicUCS002FE

This is an OBD-II self-diagnostic item.

Diagnostic trouble code “TURBINE REV S/CIRC” with CONSULT-II or P1716 without CONSULT-II is
detected under the following conditions.
–When TCM does not receive the proper voltage signal from the sensor.
–When TCM detects an irregularity only at position of 4th gear for turbine revolution sensor 2.
Possible CauseUCS002FF

Harness or connectors
(The sensor circuit is open or shorted.)

Turbine revolution sensor 1, 2
DTC Confirmation ProcedureUCS002FG
CAUTION:
Always drive vehicle at a safe speed.
NOTE:
If “DTC Confirmation Procedure” has been previously performed, always turn ignition switch “OFF”
and wait at least 10 seconds before performing the next test.
After the repair, perform the following procedure to confirm the malfunction is eliminated.
WITH CONSULT-II
1. Turn ignition switch “ON”. (Do not start engine.)
2. Select “DATA MONITOR” mode for “A/T” with CONSULT-II.
3. Start engine and maintain the following conditions for at least 5
consecutive seconds.
VHCL SPEED SE: 40 km/h (25 MPH) or more
ENGINE SPEED: 1,500 rpm or more
ACCELE POS: 0.5/8 or more
Selector lever: “D” position
Gear position (Turbine revolution sensor 1): 4th or 5th posi-
tion
Gear position (Turbine revolution sensor 2): All position
Driving location: Driving the vehicle uphill (increased
engine load) will help maintain the driving conditions required for this test.
4. If DTC is detected, go to AT-135, "
Diagnostic Procedure" .
WITH GST
Follow the procedure “With CONSULT-II”.
Item name Condition Display value (rpm)
TURBINE REV During driving (lock-up ON) Approximately matches the engine speed.

DTC P1574 ASCD VEHICLE SPEED SENSOR
2004 QX56
DTC P1574 ASCD VEHICLE SPEED SENSORPFP:31036
Component DescriptionUBS00HBM
The ECM receives two vehicle speed sensor signals via CAN communication line. One is sent from combina-
tion meter and the other is from TCM (Transmission control module). The ECM uses these signals for ASCD
control. Refer to EC-647, "
AUTOMATIC SPEED CONTROL DEVICE (ASCD)" for ASCD functions.
On Board Diagnosis LogicUBS00HBN
This self-diagnosis has the one trip detection logic.
The MIL will not light up for this diagnosis.
NOTE:

If DTC P1574 is displayed with DTC U1000, U1001, first perform the trouble diagnosis for DTC
U1000, U1001. Refer to EC-135, "
DTC U1000, U1001 CAN COMMUNICATION LINE" .

If DTC P1574 is displayed with DTC P0500, first perform the trouble diagnosis for DTC P0500.
Refer to EC-340, "
DTC P0500 VSS".

If DTC P1574 is displayed with DTC P0605, first perform the trouble diagnosis for DTC P0605.
Refer to EC-351, "
DTC P0605 ECM".
DTC Confirmation ProcedureUBS00HBO
CAUTION:
Always drive vehicle at a safe speed.
NOTE:
If DTC Confirmation Procedure has been previously conducted, always turn ignition switch OFF and wait at
least 10 seconds before conducting the next test.
TESTING CONDITION:
Step 3 may be conducted with the drive wheels lifted in the shop or by driving the vehicle. If a road test
is expected to be easier, it is unnecessary to lift the vehicle.
WITH CONSULT-II
1. Start engine (VDC switch OFF).
2. Select “DATA MONITOR” mode with CONSULT-II.
3. Drive the vehicle at more than 40 km/h (25 MPH).
4. If DTC is detected, go to EC-545, "
Diagnostic Procedure" .
WITH GST
Follow the procedure “WITH CONSULT-II” above.

PRECAUTIONS
Revision: August 20072004 QX56
General PrecautionsEAS00148

Do not operate the engine for an extended period of time without
proper exhaust ventilation.
Keep the work area well ventilated and free of any flammable
materials. Special care should be taken when handling any flam-
mable or poisonous materials, such as gasoline, refrigerant gas,
etc. When working in a pit or other enclosed area, be sure to
properly ventilate the area before working with hazardous mate-
rials.
Do not smoke while working on the vehicle.

Before jacking up the vehicle, apply wheel chocks or other tire
blocks to the wheels to prevent the vehicle from moving. After
jacking up the vehicle, support the vehicle weight with safety
stands at the points designated for proper lifting before working
on the vehicle.
These operations should be done on a level surface.

When removing a heavy component such as the engine or tran-
saxle/transmission, be careful not to lose your balance and drop
them. Also, do not allow them to strike adjacent parts, especially
the brake tubes and master cylinder.

Before starting repairs which do not require battery power:
Turn off ignition switch.
Disconnect the negative battery terminal.

If the battery terminals are disconnected, recorded memory of
radio and each control unit is erased.

Battery posts, terminals and related accessories contain lead
and lead compounds. Wash hands after handling.

To prevent serious burns:
Avoid contact with hot metal parts.
Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot.

Dispose of or recycle drained oil or the solvent used for cleaning
parts in an appropriate manner.

Do not attempt to top off the fuel tank after the fuel pump nozzle
shuts off automatically.
Continued refueling may cause fuel overflow, resulting in fuel
spray and possibly a fire.

Clean all disassembled parts in the designated liquid or solvent
prior to inspection or assembly.

Replace oil seals, gaskets, packings, O-rings, locking washers, cotter pins, self-locking nuts, etc. with new
ones.

Replace inner and outer races of tapered roller bearings and needle bearings as a set.

Arrange the disassembled parts in accordance with their assembled locations and sequence.

Do not touch the terminals of electrical components which use microcomputers (such as ECM).
Static electricity may damage internal electronic components.

After disconnecting vacuum or air hoses, attach a tag to indicate the proper connection.

Use only the fluids and lubricants specified in this manual.
