DTC P0967: Problem in CVT Pulley Pressure Control Valve Assembly Circuit (High Current Output)
2004-2005 Model

NOTE:
^ Record all freeze data and review General Troubleshooting Information before you troubleshoot.
^ This code is caused by an electrical circuit problem and cannot be caused by a mechanical problem in the transmission.

1. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
2. Disconnect solenoid harness connector (8P).





3. Measure CVT pulley pressure control valve assembly resistance between solenoid harness connector (8P) terminals No. 2 and No. 6.
Is there 3.8 - 6.8 Ohms?
YES - Go to step 7.
NO - Go to step 4.
4. Remove the lower valve body assembly.
5. Disconnect the solenoid harness from CVT pulley pressure control valve assembly connector (2P).





6. Measure CVT pulley pressure control valve assembly resistance between the connector terminals No. 1 and No. 2.
Is there 3.8 - 6.8 Ohms?
YES - Replace the solenoid harness.
NO - Replace the lower valve body assembly.
7. Disconnect PCM connectors B (24P) and C (22P).





8. Check for continuity between PCM connector terminals B7 and body ground, and between C1 and body ground.
Is there continuity?
YES - Repair short in the wire between PCM connector terminals B7, C1, and the solenoid harness connector (8P).
NO - Go to step 9.
9. Disconnect PCM connector A (31P).





10. Check for continuity between PCM connector terminals A23 and body ground, and between A24 and body ground.
Is there continuity?
YES - Update the PCM if it does not have the latest software, or substitute a known-good PCM, then recheck. If the symptom/indication goes away with a known-good PCM, replace the original PCM.
NO - Repair open in the wire between PCM connector terminals A23, A24, and ground (G101), repair poor ground (G101).
