DTC P2720, P2721 (CVT (TCM))

DTC P2720  : Pressure Control Solenoid D Control Circuit Low DTC P2721  : Pressure Control Solenoid D Control Circuit High

NOTE: 

• Before you troubleshoot, review the General Troubleshooting Information .
• This code is caused by an electrical circuit problem and cannot be caused by a mechanical problem in the transmission.

DTC (CVT)

1. Problem verification

   -1. Turn the vehicle to the ON mode.

   -2. Clear the DTC with the HDS.

   -3. Start the engine, and wait for at least 1 second.

   -4. Check for Pending or Confirmed DTCs with the HDS.

   DTC Description	Confirmed DTC	Pending DTC	Freeze Frame
   P2720 Pressure Control Solenoid D Control Circuit Low
   P2721 Pressure Control Solenoid D Control Circuit High

   Is DTC P2720 or P2721 indicated?

   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 CVT lock-up clutch control solenoid valve and the TCM. 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 (TCM, short in LCCLS line, open in LCCLS/LCC+ line)

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

   -2. Disconnect the following connector.

   TCM 50P connector

   -3. Measure the resistance between test points 1 and 2.

   Test condition	Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode
   	TCM 50P connector: disconnected
   Test point 1	TCM 50P connector No. 16
   Test point 2	Body ground

   Is there 5.0-6.3Ω?

   5.0-6.3Ω

   Check for any authorized service information related to the DTCs or symptoms you are troubleshooting, or substitute a known-good TCM , then recheck. If this DTC goes away and the TCM was substituted, replace the original TCM .

   Less than 5.0Ω

   Go to step 3.

   More than 6.3Ω

   Go to step 4.

3. Shorted wire check (LCCLS line)

   -1. Disconnect the following connector.

   CVT lock-up clutch control solenoid valve 2P connector

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

   Test condition	Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode
   	CVT lock-up clutch control solenoid valve 2P connector: disconnected
   	TCM 50P connector: disconnected
   Test point 1	TCM 50P connector No. 16
   Test point 2	Body ground

   Is there continuity?

   YES 

   Repair a short to ground in the LCCLS wire between the CVT lock-up clutch control solenoid valve and the TCM.

   NO 

   The LCCLS wire is OK. Faulty CVT lock-up clutch control solenoid valve. Replace the valve body assembly .

4. Open wire check (LCCLS/LCC+ line)

   -1. Disconnect the following connector.

   CVT lock-up clutch control solenoid valve 2P connector

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

   Test condition	Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode
   	CVT lock-up clutch control solenoid valve 2P connector: disconnected
   	TCM 50P connector: disconnected
   Test point 1	CVT lock-up clutch control solenoid valve 2P connector (female terminals) No. 2 :
   Test point 2	TCM 50P connector No. 16

   Is there continuity?

   YES 

   The LCCLS/LCC+ wire is OK. Go to step 5.

   NO 

   Repair an open in the LCCLS/LCC+ wire between the CVT lock-up clutch control solenoid valve and the TCM.

5. Open wire check (LCC- line)

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

   Test condition	Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode
   	CVT lock-up clutch control solenoid valve 2P connector: disconnected
   	TCM 50P connector: disconnected
   Test point 1	CVT lock-up clutch control solenoid valve 2P connector (female terminals) No. 1 :
   Test point 2	Body ground

   Courtesy of HONDA, U.S.A., INC.

   Is there continuity?

   YES 

   The LCC- wire is OK. Faulty CVT lock-up clutch control solenoid valve. Replace the valve body assembly .

   NO 

   Repair an open in the LCC- wire between the CVT lock-up clutch control solenoid valve and ground (G252), or repair poor ground (G252).
