DTC P0772 [FN4A-EL]

BME050201030232

DTC P0772 | Shift solenoid E stuck ON
--- | ---
DETECTION CONDITION | • If any of DTC P0731, P0733, and P0734 are not detected, and all of the following conditions are satisfied under each of the following throttle conditions, the PCM determines that there is a malfunction.

  - ATF temperature 20 °C {68 °F} or more.
  - Driving in 4GR at D range.
  - Engine running.
  - Turbine speed within 225-4,988 rpm.
  - Vehicle speed below 70 km/h {43 mph}.
  - Torque converter clutch (TCC) no operation
  - Difference between engine speed and turbine speed below 50 rpm

• Throttle conditions.

  - Throttle opening angle (TP PID) above 10.1% and 5 s or more have passed.
  - Throttle opening angle (TP PID) within 3.1-10.1% and 3 s or more have passed.
  - Throttle opening angle at closed throttle position and 5 s or more have passed.

Diagnostic support note:
• This is a continuous monitor (CCM).
• The MIL illuminates if the PCM detects the above malfunction condition in two consecutive drive cycles or in one drive cycle while the DTC for the same malfunction has been stored in the PCM.
• The PENDING CODE is available if the PCM detects the above malfunction condition during the first drive cycle.
• FREEZE FRAME DATA is available.
• The HOLD indicator light flashes.
• The DTC is stored in the PCM memory.
POSSIBLE CAUSE | • Low ATF level • Deteriorated ATF • Stuck shift solenoid E • Stuck control valve • PCM malfunction

Diagnostic procedure

STEP | INSPECTION | ACTION
--- | --- | ---
1 | VERIFY FREEZE FRAME DATA HAS BEEN RECORDED • Has the FREEZE FRAME DATA been recorded? | Yes | Go to the next step.
No | Record the FREEZE FRAME DATA on the repair order, then go to the next step.
2 | VERIFY RELATED REPAIR INFORMATION AVAILABILITY • Verify related Service Bulletins and or/on-line repair information availability. • Is any related repair information available? | Yes | Perform repair or diagnosis according to the available repair information. • If the vehicle is not repaired, go to the next step.
No | Go to the next step.
3 | INSPECT ATF CONDITION • Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK position. • Inspect the ATF condition.

  - Clear red: Normal
  - Milky: Water mixed in fluid
  - Reddish brown: Deteriorated ATF

• Is it normal?
(See Automatic Transaxle Fluid (ATF) Condition Inspection.)
Yes
Go to the next step.
No | If the ATF color is milky or reddish brown, replace the ATF, then go to Step 5. (See AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE FLUID (ATF) REPLACEMENT [FN4A-EL].)
4 | INSPECT ATF LEVEL • Start the engine. • Warm up the ATX. • Is the ATF level within the specification? (See Automatic Transaxle Fluid (ATF) Level Inspection.) | Yes | Go to the next step.
No | Add the ATF to the specified level, then go to Step 7. (See Automatic Transaxle Fluid (ATF) Level Inspection.)
5 | INSPECT LINE PRESSURE • Start the engine. • Measure the line pressure. Specification Idle: 330-470 kPa {3.4-4.7 kgf/cm 2, 49-66 psi}

Stall: 1,160-1,320 kPa {11.9-13.4 kgf/cm 2, 170-190 psi}

• Are the line pressure within the specifications?
(See Line Pressure Test.)
Yes
Go to the next step.
No | • All ranges: Replace the oil pump or control valve body, then go to Step 7. • Any ranges: Replace the ATX, then go to Step 7. (See AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [FN4A-EL].) (See ATX Workshop Manual FN4A-EL.)
6 | INSPECT OPERATION OF EACH VALVE AND EACH SPRING • Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK position. • Remove the control valve body. • Disassemble the control valve body. • Is each valve operation and the normal the return spring?
(See CONTROL VALVE BODY REMOVAL [FN4A-EL].)
(See CONTROL VALVE BODY INSTALLATION [FN4A-EL].)
(See ATX Workshop Manual FN4A-EL.)
Yes
Replace the ATX, then go to the next step.
(See AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [FN4A-EL].)
(See ATX Workshop Manual FN4A-EL.)
No | Repair or replace the shift valve and return spring, then go to the next step. (See CONTROL VALVE BODY REMOVAL [FN4A-EL].) (See CONTROL VALVE BODY INSTALLATION [FN4A-EL].) (See ATX Workshop Manual FN4A-EL.)
7 | VERIFY TROUBLESHOOTING OF DTC P0772 COMPLETED • Make sure to reconnect all the disconnected connectors. • Clear the DTC from the memory using the WDS or equivalent. • Start the engine. • Warm up the ATX.
• Drive the vehicle under the following conditions and make sure that gears shift smoothly from 1GR to 4GR.

  - ATF temperature: 20 °C {68 °F} or more
  - Drive in the D range
  - Vehicle speed (VSS PID): below 70 km/h {43 mph} (4GR only)

• Is the PENDING CODE present?
Yes
Replace the PCM, then go to the next step.
(See PCM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [L3].)
No | Go to the next step.
8 | VERIFY AFTER REPAIR PROCEDURE • Perform the "After Repair Procedure". (See AFTER REPAIR PROCEDURE [FN4A-EL].) • Are any DTCs present? | Yes | Go to the applicable DTC inspection. (See DTC TABLE [FN4A-EL].)
No | DTC troubleshooting completed.
