Shift Solenoid: Testing and Inspection

Solenoid Valve On-Vehicle Inspection

CAUTION:
Do not remove valve body from CVT assembly. If faulty condition is found, replace CVT assembly.


Resistance Check
1) Turn ignition switch to "OFF" position.
2) Disconnect connector (1) from solenoid harness.





3) Check for proper terminal connection to solenoid connector.
4) Check resistance of each solenoid valve and its circuit.
If faulty condition is found, replace CVT assembly.

Line pressure control solenoid valve resistance: [A]
Between line pressure control solenoid valve terminal "8" and transaxle: 3.0 - 9.0 ohms at 20 °C (68 °F)

Secondary pressure control solenoid valve resistance: [B]
Between secondary pressure control solenoid valve terminal "7" and transaxle: 3.0 - 9.0 ohms at 20 °C (68 °F)

TCC solenoid valve resistance: [C]
Between TCC solenoid valve terminal "6" and transaxle: 3.0 - 9.0 ohms at 20 °C (68 °F)

Lock-up / select switching solenoid valve resistance: [D]
Between lock-up / select switching solenoid valve terminal "5" and transaxle: 17 - 38 ohms at 20 °C (68 °F)
