P07407E
|
Torque Converter Clutch Actuator Stuck On
|
DESCRIPTION
The ECM uses signals from the throttle position sensor, mass air flow meter, transmission revolution sensor (NT), transmission revolution sensor (NC) and crankshaft position sensor to help determine the engagement timing of the lock-up clutch. The ECM monitors the engagement of the clutch using the transmission revolution sensor (NT), transmission revolution sensor (NC) and crankshaft position sensor.
Then the ECM compares the engagement condition of the lock-up clutch with the lock-up schedule in the ECM memory to detect solenoid (SL) valve, transmission valve body assembly and torque converter assembly mechanical problems.
DTC No.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION
Torque converter lock-up is controlled by the ECM based on the transmission revolution sensor (NT), transmission revolution sensor (NC), engine speed, engine load, engine temperature, vehicle speed, automatic transaxle fluid temperature, and gear selection. The ECM determines the lock-up status of the torque converter by comparing the engine speed (NE) to the input turbine speed (NT). The ECM calculates the actual transmission gear by comparing the input turbine speed (NT) to the output shaft speed (NC). When certain conditions are met, the ECM requests "lock-up" by cutting control voltage to the solenoid (SL) valve. When the solenoid (SL) valve is turned off, pressure is applied to the lock-up relay valve and the torque converter is locked.
If the ECM detects no lock-up after lock-up has been requested or if it detects lock-up when it is not requested, the ECM interprets this as a fault in the solenoid (SL) valve or lock-up system performance. The ECM will illuminate the MIL and store the DTC.

Example:
When any of the following is met, the system judges it as a malfunction.

ACTIVE TEST
HINT:
Using the Techstream to perform Active Tests allows relays, VSVs, actuators and other items to be operated without removing any parts. This non-intrusive functional inspection can be very useful because intermittent operation may be discovered before parts or wiring is disturbed. Performing Active Tests early in troubleshooting is one way to save diagnostic time. Data List information can be displayed while performing Active Tests.
(a) Warm up the engine.
(b) Turn the engine switch off.
(c) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
(d) Turn the engine switch on (IG).
(e) Turn the Techstream on.
(f) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Transmission / Active Test.
(g) According to the display on the Techstream, perform the Active Test.

HINT:
This test can be conducted when the vehicle speed is 80 km/h (50 mph) or more.
(h) Lightly depress the accelerator pedal and check that the engine speed does not change abruptly.
HINT:
-
When changing the accelerator pedal opening angle while driving, if the engine speed does not change, lock-up is on.
-
Slowly release the accelerator pedal in order to decelerate, but do not fully release the pedal. (Fully releasing the pedal will close the throttle valve and lock-up may be prohibited.)
