Toyota Corolla (E120): Circuit description
Monitor description
The ecm commands gearshift by turning the shift solenoid valves ”on/off”. When there is an open or short circuit in any shift solenoid valve circuit, the ecm detects the problem and the mil comes on. Illuminating the mil, the ecm performs the fail–safe and turns the other shift solenoid valves in good condition ”on/off” (in case of an open or short circuit, the ecm stops sending current to the circuit.).

Symptom simulation
Hint:
the most difficult case in troubleshooting is when no symptoms occurs. In such
cases, a thorough customer
problem analysis must be carried out. Then the same or similar conditions and
environment in which the
problem occurred in the customer’s vehicle should be simulated. No matter ho ...
Basic inspection
When the malfunction is not confirmed in the dtc check, troubleshooting
should be carried out in all the
possible circuits considered as causes of the problem. In many cases, by
carrying out the basic engine check
shown in the following flowchart, the location causing the problem can be found ...
Inspection procedure
1 Check harness and connector(transmission control switch –
body ground)
Disconnect the transmission control switch connector of
shift lever assy.
measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the
table below.
Standard:
2 Inspect transmission control switch
