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.

Monitor description
Dtc p0451, p0452 or p0453 is recorded by the ecm when the vapor pressure
sensor malfunctions.
P0451
The ecm senses pressure in the fuel tank using the vapor pressure sensor. The
ecm supplies the sensor
with a regulated 5 v reference–voltage and the sensor returns a signal voltage
betwee ...
Inspection procedure
Hint:
if different dtcs related to different systems that have terminal e2
as the ground terminal are output
simultaneously, terminal e2 may be open.
If dtc p0441 (purge flow), p0446 (vsv for ccv), p0451, p0452 or p0453
(evaporative pressure
sensor) is output with dtc p0442 or p0456, ...
