FAIL-SAFE CHART

1. Fail-safe

This function minimizes the loss of operation when any abnormality occurs in a sensor or solenoid.

Fail-safe Control List

Malfunction Part

Function

Input Speed Sensor (NT)

Shifting to only either 1st or 3rd gears is allowed.

Output Speed Sensor (NC)

  • The counter gear speed is determined based on the signals from the skid control ECU (speed sensor signals).
  • Shifting between 1st to 4th gears is allowed.

ATF Temperature Sensor

Shifting between 1st to 4th gears is allowed.

ECT ECU

Power Supply (Voltage is Low)

When the vehicle is being driven in 6th gear, the transaxle is fixed in 6th gear. When being driven in any of 1st to 5th gears, the transaxle is fixed in 5th gear.

CAN communication

Shifting to only either 1st or 3rd gears is allowed.

Knock Sensor

Shifting between 1st to 4th gears is allowed.

Solenoid Valve SL1, SL2, SL3 and SL4

The current to the failed solenoid valve is cut off and operating the other solenoid valves with normal operation performs shift control. (Shift controls in fail-safe mode are described in the table on the next page. For details, refer to Fail-Safe Control Chart)
