DTC P084C

DTC P084C  : Line Pressure Pressure Switch Stuck ON

DTC Description Confirmed DTC Pending DTC Freeze Frame
P084C Line Pressure Pressure Switch Stuck ON      

DTC (A/T)

  1. Problem verification

    -1. Turn the vehicle to the ON mode.

    - 2. Clear the DTC with the HDS.

    - 3. Check the parameter(s) below with the HDS.

    Signal Threshold Current conditions
    Values Unit Values Unit
    Line Pressure Pressure Switch ON      

    Do the current condition(s) match the threshold?

    YES 

    The failure is duplicated. Go to step 2.

    NO 

    Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Check for poor connections and loose terminals between the line pressure switch and the PCM. If the freeze data/on-board snapshot of this DTC is recorded, try to reproduce the failure under the same conditions with the freeze data/on-board snapshot.

  2. Determine possible failure area (line pressure switch, others)

    -1. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

    - 2. Disconnect the following connector.

    Line pressure switch 1P connector

    - 3. Turn the vehicle to the ON mode.

    - 4. Check the parameter(s) below with the HDS.

    Signal Threshold Current conditions
    Values Unit Values Unit
    Line Pressure Pressure Switch OFF      

    Do the current condition(s) match the threshold?

    YES 

    Replace the line pressure switch .

    NO 

    Go to step 3.

  3. Shorted wire check (OPPLSW line)

    -1. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

    - 2. Jump the SCS line with the HDS.

    - 3. Disconnect the following connector.

    PCM connector B (51P) - Refer to: How to Troubleshoot the Fuel and Emissions Systems, or How to Troubleshoot the A/T System (2014 2015),

    - 4. Check for continuity between test points 1 and 2.

    Test condition Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode
      Line pressure switch 1P connector: disconnected
      PCM connector B (51P): disconnected
    Test circuit OPPLSW
    Test point 1 PCM connector B (51P) No. 37 (BRN)
    Test point 2 Body ground

    Is there continuity?

    YES 

    Repair a short to ground in the OPPLSW wire between the line pressure switch and the PCM.

    NO 

    The OPPLSW wire is OK. Replace the PCM - Refer to: PCM Removal and Installation (2014 2015) .
