NO.7 NO SHIFTING [SJ6A-EL]

7

No shifting

DESCRIPTION

  • Single shift position only.

  • Sometimes it shifts correctly.

POSSIBLE CAUSE

  • When the gear position is fixed in 4GR due to the fail-safe operation, malfunction is in the AT.

    • Clutch burnt (C1 clutch, C2 clutch, C3 clutch, B1 brake, B2 brake, B3 brake, B4 brake)

      • Line pressure low

      • Incorrect accelerator pedal position signal

      • Incorrect engine speed signal

      • Incorrect engine coolant temperature signal

      • Incorrect engine torque signal

      • VSS malfunction

      • Turbine sensor malfunction

      • Sensor ground malfunction

      • Shift solenoid A malfunction

      • Shift solenoid B malfunction

      • Shift solenoid C malfunction

      • Shift solenoid D malfunction

      • Shift solenoid E malfunction

      • Shift solenoid F malfunction

      • Shift solenoid G malfunction

      • Line pressure control solenoid malfunction

      • Control valve body malfunction

    • 4GR is fixed (Operation in fail-safe function)

      • Short or open circuit in wiring harness

      • Poor connection of connector

      • Poor ground of shift solenoid

      • Malfunction of electronic parts of output and input system

    • TFT sensor malfunction

    • TR switch malfunction

    • TCM malfunction

NOTE:

  • If a tire of a different diameter from the standard tire is installed, the TCM determines that the driving mode is the AAS mode, and may change to a different shift timing from the normal timing.

Diagnostic procedure

STEP

INSPECTION

ACTION

1

  • With the ignition switch at the ON position.

  • Does the gear position indication correspond to the selector lever position?

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

Perform the symptom troubleshooting “NO.27 GEAR POSITION INDICATION ILLUMINATES IN D POSITION”, or “NO.28 GEAR POSITION INDICATION DOES NOT ILLUMINATE IN M POSITION”.

(See NO.27 GEAR POSITION INDICATION ILLUMINATES IN D POSITION [SJ6A-EL].)

(See NO.28 GEAR POSITION INDICATION DOES NOT ILLUMINATE IN M POSITION [SJ6A-EL].)

2

  • Access the following PCM PIDs using the M-MDS:

    (See ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC TEST [PCM (SKYACTIV-G 2.0)].)

    • RPM

    • APP

    • TP_REL

    • ECT

  • Are the PIDs value normal?

    (See PCM INSPECTION [SKYACTIV-G 2.0].)

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

Repair or replace the malfunctioning part according to the inspection results.

3

  • Inspect the TFT sensor.

    (See TRANSMISSION FLUID TEMPERATURE (TFT) SENSOR INSPECTION [SJ6A-EL].)

  • Is the TFT sensor normal?

Yes

Go to the next step.

No

Replace the TFT sensor.

(See TRANSMISSION FLUID TEMPERATURE (TFT) SENSOR REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [SJ6A-EL].)

4

  • Stop the engine.

  • Inspect the following solenoid:

    (See SOLENOID VALVE INSPECTION [SJ6A-EL].)

    • Shift solenoid A

    • Shift solenoid B

    • Shift solenoid C

    • Shift solenoid D

    • Shift solenoid E

    • Shift solenoid F

    • Shift solenoid G

    • Line pressure control solenoid

  • Are these solenoids normal?

Yes

Inspect the ATF condition.

  • If a large amount of metal specks are found, overhaul the transmission and repair or replace any malfunctioning parts.

    (See AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [SJ6A-EL].)

    (See Automatic Transmission Workshop Manual [SJ6A-EL].)

  • If a large amount of metal specks are not found, replace the control valve body.

    (See CONTROL VALVE BODY REMOVAL [SJ6A-EL].)

    (See CONTROL VALVE BODY INSTALLATION [SJ6A-EL].)

No

Replace the control valve body.

(See CONTROL VALVE BODY REMOVAL [SJ6A-EL].)

(See CONTROL VALVE BODY INSTALLATION [SJ6A-EL].)

5

  • Verify test results.

    • If normal, return to the diagnostic index to service any additional symptoms.

    • If malfunction remains, inspect the related Service Bulletins and/or On-line Repair Information and perform repair or diagnosis.

      • If the vehicle is repaired, troubleshooting completed.

      • If the vehicle is not repaired or additional diagnostic information is not available, replace the TCM. (See TCM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [SJ6A-EL].)
