TRANSMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM (JR405E) 7A2-71
DTC P1750 (Flash Code 51)
Circuit Description
The low & reverse brake transmission fluid pressure
(TFP) switch is installed to the lower part of the valve
body assembly and it feedbacks fluid pressure in the
low & reverse brake hydraulic circuit. The low & reverse
brake fail-safe spool valves are installed to the control
valve body assembly and it uses to prevent interlocking
of clutches and brakes. When the solenoid valve is
energized, fluid pressure is drained to disengage the
low & reverse brake and the TFP switch is OFF. When
the solenoid valve is not energized, fluid pressure is
applied to engage the low & reverse brake and the TFP
switch is ON. The TCM monitors the low & reverse
brake TFP switch ON/ OFF status through the signal
circuit. If the TCM detects an improper status on the
signal circuit, this DTC will set.
Condition for Running the DTC • The ignition switch is ON.
Condition for Setting the DTC • The TCM detects that the low & reverse brake TFP switch signal repeats OFF/ ON twice when the
selector lever in forward range with the 2nd, 3rd or
4th gear.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets • The TCM blinks the Check Trans lamp when the diagnostic runs and fails. During the vehicle running;
• The TCM holds the last gear position when the diagnostic runs and fails.
• The TCM inhibits lock up control.
After the vehicle stopped;
• The TCM fixes to the 3rd gear.
Condition for Clearing the DTC • The TCM turns OFF the Check Trans lamp when the diagnostic runs and does not fail at next
ignition cycle.
• A current DTC clears when the diagnostic runs and does not fail at next ignition cycle.
Diagnostic Aids • If an intermittent condition is suspected, refer to Intermittent Conditions in this section.
• Use the Clutch, Brake, Solenoid and Pressure Switch Logic table to verify each component works
properly within the selected gear range.
• A sticking or intermittently sticking the low & reverse brake solenoid valve will cause this DTC to
set.

energized, fluid pressure is applied to engage the 2-4
brake and the TFP switch is ON. The TCM monitors the
2-4 brake TFP switch ON/ OFF status through the

Test Instructions
Line Pressure Test
Legend1. Oil cooler (outlet)
2. Low & reverse brake pressure detection port (R range line pressure detection port) 3. Low clutch pressure detection port (D, 3, 2, L range
line pressure detection port)
4. Oil cooler (inlet)
Line Pressure Test Procedure
1. Fully apply the parking brake and chock all wheels.

7A2-144 TRANSMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM (JR405E)
The JR405E automatic transmission is electrically
controlled by a transmission control module (TCM).
There are four forward speeds and one reverse speed.
This JR405E automatic transmission employs a clutch
pressure direct control system (Direct Electronic Shift
Control: DESC) using duty cycle type solenoid valves,
which ensure high shift quality. This transmission also
has a learning function and constantly checks the time
of each clutch and brake required for the shift in order
to match this time with the target value for the optimum
shift. The TCM will automatically select the most
appropriate shift points and lock-up points depending
on the accelerator pedal opening, the vehicle speed
and the vehicle load. If any trouble arises in the speed
sensor, solenoid valve, etc., the fail-safe control
function is activated to keep the running performance.
The JR405E automatic transmission consists of the
torque converter, oil pump, input shaft, out put shaft,
planetary gears and valve body. The gear train consists
of two planetary gear sets and three multiple plate
clutches in combination with two multiple plate brakes
and a one-way clutch.

Torque Converter
Legend
1. Pump impeller
2. Turbine runner
3. Stator
4. Converter front cover
5. One-way clutch
6. Torque converter clutch (TCC) piston
7. Torsion damper
The torque converter is a device for transmitting the
engine torque to the transmission. It transmits power by
means of oil when the lock up clutch is disengaged,
and by means of a lock up clutch when it is engaged. The torque converter is of the symmetrical, three-
element, single-stage, two-phase type. As shown in the
picture, the symmetrical three-elements refer to three
elements (components) consisting of impeller (1),
turbine (2) and stator (3) that are arranged
symmetrically. Single-stage means that there is only
one turbine as an output element; two-phase means
that the pump impeller acts as a torque converter when
the turbine speed is comparatively low, and as a fluid
coupling when the speed is high. Lock up refers to a
fixed state of the lock up clutch (=torque converter
clutch (TCC) inside the torque converter and thus
connects the engine directly to the transmission.

10. Return spring 11. Piston check ball
The multi-plate clutch is composed of drive plates and
driven plates. By applying the oil pressure onto the end
surface of the plates, the clutch is engaged. The oil
pressure is adjusted with the spool valves according to
the signal from the TCM. All clutches use dish plates to
prevent uncontrolled operation of the clutches when
engaged, causing a shock. For the low clutch and high clutch (A), a centrifugal
balance chamber full of transmission fluid is provided to
offset the excessive oil pressure. This prevents clutch
drag caused by oil pressure generated by residual
transmission fluid due to the centrifugal force while the
clutch is racing (under no oil pressure).
For the reverse clutch (B), a piston check ball is used to
release the oil pressure. This prevents clutch drag
caused by oil pressure generated by residual
transmission fluid due to the centrifugal force while the
clutch is racing (under no oil pressure).
The solenoid valve in the valve body is driven based on
the shift signal from the TCM, it moves the shift valve,
thereby engaging the drive plate and driven plate
through the piston of each clutch. As a result, elements
of the planetary gear unit are combined. When the oil
pressure is removed, the piston returns to the original
position via the force of the return spring.
2-4 Brake and Low & Reverse Brake
The multi-plate brake is composed of drive plates and
driven plates. By applying the oil pressure onto the end
surface of the plates, the brake is engaged. The oil
pressure is adjusted with the spool valve according to
the signal from the TCM. All brakes use dish plates to
prevent uncontrolled operation of the clutches when
engaged, causing a shock.
The solenoid valve in the valve body is driven based on
the shift signal from the TCM, it moves the shift valve,
thereby engaging the drive plate and driven plate
through the piston of each brake. As a result, rotation of
each element of the planetary gear unit is fixed. When
the oil pressure is removed, the piston returns to the
original position via the force of the return spring.
