Toyota Corolla (E120): Shift solenoid ”a” performance (shift solenoid valve s1)
Dtc p0751 shift solenoid ”a” performance (shift solenoid valve s1)
System description
The ecm uses signals from the vehicle speed sensor and crankshaft position sensor to detect the actual gear position (1st, 2nd, 3rd or o/d gear).
Then the ecm compares the actual gear with the shift schedule in the ecm memory to detect the mechanical trouble of the shift solenoid valves, the valve body or automatic transaxle (clutch, brake or gear etc.).

Monitor description
The ecm commands gear shifts by turning the shift solenoid valves ”on/off”. According to the input shaft revolution, intermediate (counter) shaft revolution and output shaft revolution, the ecm detects the actual gear position (1st, 2nd, 3rd or o/d gear position). When the gear position commanded by the ecm and the actual gear position are not same, the ecm illuminates the mil.

Circuit description
The crankshaft position sensor (ne signal) consists of a magnet, iron core
and pickup coil.
The ne signal plate (crankshaft position sensor plate) has 34 teeth and is
installed on the crankshaft. The
ne signal sensor generates 34 signals for each engine revolution. This sensor
monitors a p ...

Inspection procedure
Hint:
read freeze frame data using the hand-held tester or the obd ii scan tool.
Freeze frame data records the
engine conditions when a malfunction is detected. When troubleshooting, it is
useful for determining whether
the vehicle was running or stopped, the engine was warmed up or not, the ...
