Toyota Corolla (E120): Circuit description

The shift solenoid valve sl is turned ”on” and ”off” by signals from the ecm in order to control the hydraulic pressure operation, the lock–up relay valve, which then the controls operation of the lock–up clutch.

Fail safe function: if the ecm detects a malfunction, it turns the shift solenoid valve sl off.

Monitor description

Monitor description

Based on the signals from the throttle position sensor, the airflow meter and the crankshaft position sensor, the ecm sends a signal to the sl solenoid valve to regulate the hydraulic pressure and provide smoother gearshifts. The shift–solenoid valve sl responds to commands from the ecm. The valve controls the lock–up relay valve to perform the torque–converter lock–up function. If the ecm detects an open or short circuit for shift–solenoid sl, it will illuminate the mil.

    Inspection procedure
    Hint: if dtcs besides misfire are memorized simultaneously, first perform the troubleshooting for them. 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 ...

    Circuit description
    While driving uphill with cruise control activated, in order to minimize gear shifting and provide smooth cruising overdrive may be prohibited temporarily under some conditions. The cruise control ecu sends o/d cut signals to the ecm as necessary and the ecm cancels overdrive shifting until ...
