Toyota Corolla Cross: Pressure Control Solenoid "M" Actuator Stuck Off (P08C37F,P091400)

Toyota Corolla Cross (2022-2024) Service Manual / Drivetrain / K120 (cvt) / Continuously Variable Transaxle System / Pressure Control Solenoid "M" Actuator Stuck Off (P08C37F,P091400)

DESCRIPTION

Using the current from the TCM, the shift solenoid valve SLG controls the B1 brake when the shift lever is in R, and controls the S1 synchronizer when the shift lever is in P, N, D or M.

When the TCM requests the shift mode to be changed to gear mode, the S1 synchronizer is engaged and input torque is transferred to the 1st gear.

When the TCM requests the shift mode to be changed to belt mode and certain conditions are met, the S1 synchronizer is released and input torque is not transferred to the 1st gear.

The shift stroke sensor detects the S1 synchronizer position using the magnet on the shift fork, and sends signals to the TCM.

DTC No.

Pressure Control Solenoid "M" Actuator Stuck Off

Any of the following conditions are met (2-trip detection logic):

  • When the TCM commands the S1 synchronizer to be engaged, the shift stroke sensor output value is less than 9.205 mm (0.362 in.) for 4 seconds or more.
  • When the TCM commands the S1 synchronizer to be released, the shift stroke sensor output value is 9.205 mm (0.362 in.) or more for 3 seconds or more.
  • When the TCM commands the S1 synchronizer to be released, the shift stroke sensor output value is 1.498 mm (0.0590 in.) or more for 8 seconds or more.
  • Transmission valve body assembly (shift solenoid valve SLG)

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

With the shift lever in P, N, D or M, the shift solenoid valve SLG controls the S1 synchronizer and moves it to the requested position according to the requested shift mode.

When the TCM detects that the S1 synchronizer is not in the appropriate position, it determines that the shift solenoid valve SLG or shift stroke sensor is malfunctioning, illuminates the MIL and stores a DTC.

CONFIRMATION DRIVING PATTERN

CAUTION:

When performing the confirmation driving pattern, obey all speed limits and traffic laws.

HINT:

  • After repairs have been completed, clear the DTCs and then check that the vehicle has returned to normal by performing the following All Readiness check procedure.
  • When clearing the permanent DTCs, refer to the Clear Permanent DTC procedure.

    Click here

  1. Clear the DTCs (even if no DTCs are stored, perform the clear DTC procedure).
  2. Turn the ignition switch off and wait for 2 minutes or more.
  3. Turn the ignition switch to ON and turn the GTS on.
  4. Start the engine.
  5. Perform the D Position Shift Test inspection in Road Test. [*1]

    HINT:

    [*1]: Normal judgment procedure.

    The normal judgment procedure is used to complete DTC judgment and also used when clearing permanent DTCs.

  6. Stop the vehicle.
  7. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Transmission / Utility / All Readiness.
  8. Input the DTC: P08C37F or P091400.
  9. Check the DTC judgment result.

    • Number of DTCs which do not fulfill DTC preconditions has reached ECU memory limit

    HINT:

    • If the judgment result shows NORMAL, the system is normal.
    • If the judgment result shows ABNORMAL, the system has a malfunction.
    • If the judgment result shows INCOMPLETE or N/A, perform the normal judgment procedure again.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

NOTICE:

  • Perform the universal trip to clear permanent DTCs.

HINT:

If any DTCs other than P08C37F or P091400 are output, perform troubleshooting for those DTCs first.

PROCEDURE

1.

CHECK DTC OUTPUT (IN ADDITION TO DTC P08C37F AND P091400)

(a) Enter the following menus:

Powertrain > Transmission > Trouble Codes

(b) Read the DTCs using the GTS.

HINT:

  • If DTC P08C312 or P08C314 is output, perform troubleshooting for that DTC first.
  • If DTCs P08C312 and P08C314 are not output but DTC P091412 or P091414 is output, perform troubleshooting for DTC P091412 or P091414 first.
