DTC P0979 Shift Solenoid "C" Control Circuit Low (Shift Solenoid Valve S3) |
DTC P0980 Shift Solenoid "C" Control Circuit High (Shift Solenoid Valve S3) |
for Preparation Click here
DESCRIPTION
Shifting from 1st to 6th is performed in combination with ON and OFF operation of the shift solenoid valves SL1, SL2, S1, S2, S3, S4 and SR, which are controlled by the ECM. If an open or short circuit occurs in any of the shift solenoid valves, the ECM controls the remaining normal shift solenoid valves to allow the vehicle to be operated safely. Also, the ECM stops sending the current to the open or short circuited solenoid (Click here).DTC Code | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area |
P0979 | ECM detects short in solenoid valve S3 circuit 2 times when solenoid valve S3 is operated (1 trip detection logic) |
|
P0980 | ECM detects open in solenoid valve S3 circuit 2 times when solenoid valve S3 is not operated (1 trip detection logic) |
|
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
These DTCs indicate an open or short in the shift solenoid valve S3 circuit. When there is an open or short circuit in any shift solenoid valve circuit, the ECM detects the problem, illuminates the MIL and stores the DTC. When the shift solenoid valve S3 is ON, if its resistance is 8 Ω or less, the ECM determines there is a short in the shift solenoid valve S3 circuit.When the shift solenoid valve S3 is OFF, if its resistance is 100 kΩ or more, the ECM determines there is an open in the shift solenoid valve S3 circuit (Click here).

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
- NOTICE:
- Perform the universal trip to clear permanent DTCs (Click here).
- HINT:
- The shift solenoid valve S3 is turned ON/OFF normally when the shift lever is on D:
ECM gear shift command | 1st | 2nd | 3rd | 4th | 5th | 6th |
Shift solenoid valve S3 | ON | ON | ON | OFF | OFF | OFF |
1.INSPECT NO. 1 TRANSMISSION WIRE (SHIFT SOLENOID VALVE S3) |
Disconnect the D63 No. 1 transmission wire connector.
Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
- Standard resistance:
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition 7 (S3) - Body ground 20°C (68°F) 11 to 15 Ω
|
| ||||
OK | |
2.CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (NO. 1 TRANSMISSION WIRE - ECM) |
Disconnect the D74 ECM connector.
Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
- Standard resistance:
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition D74-3 (S3) - Body ground 20°C (68°F) 11 to 15 Ω
Result Result Proceed to NG A OK (for 3UR-FE) B OK (for 3UR-FBE) C

3.INSPECT SHIFT SOLENOID VALVE S3 |
Remove shift solenoid valve S3.
Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
- Standard resistance:
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition Shift solenoid valve S3 connector terminal - Shift solenoid valve S3 body 20°C (68°F) 11 to 15 Ω
Connect the battery's positive (+) lead to the terminal of the solenoid valve connector, and the negative (-) lead to the solenoid valve body. Then check that the valve moves and makes an operating noise.
- OK:
- Valve moves and makes an operating noise.
