Look for any damage to the wiring harness, and check the condition and connection of the transmission computer
and multifunction contact connectors.
If the connection is faulty and there is a repair procedure (see Technical Note 6015A, Electrical wiring repair,
Wiring: Precautions for repair), repair the wiring, otherwise replace it.
Check for + after ignition feed on connection 5LW of component 754.
Is the + after ignition feed still present?
If YES, move on to step 1.
If NO, move on to step 5.
Step 1:
Disconnect the connector from component 119, measure the resistance of clutch 3 solenoid valve (on the
connector of component 119) between the following connections:
●Connection code 5Q.
●Connection code 5LW.
The resistance must be 5.3 ΩΩ Ω Ω
± 0.5 ΩΩ Ω Ω
at 20 ˚C.
Is the resistance correct?
If YES, contact the Techline.
If NO, move on to step 2.
Step 2:
Disconnect connector R22 and check continuity and insulation of the following connections:
●Connection code 5Q.
●Connection code 5LW.
Between components 119 and R22.
If the connection or connections are faulty and there is a repair procedure (see Technical Note 6015A, Electrical
wiring repair, Wiring: Precautions for repair), repair the wiring, otherwise replace it.
Are the continuity and insulation correct?
If YES, move on to step 3.
If NOT, replace the external wiring harness on the automatic transmission.
AFTER REPAIRDeal with any other faults. Clear the fault memory.
Switch off the ignition, wait 1 minute and carry out a road test followed by another check
