DTC P0778 Pressure Control Solenoid "B" Electrical (Shift Solenoid Valve SL2): Description

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.

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 is controlled by the ECM. If an open or short circuit occurs in either of the shift solenoid valves, the ECM controls the remaining normal shift solenoid valve to allow the vehicle to be operated smoothly (See DATA LIST / ACTIVE TEST ).

DTC DETECTION CONDITION CHART

DTC No.	DTC Detection Condition	Trouble Area
P0778	The ECM checks for an open or short in the shift solenoid valve SL2 circuit while driving and shifting gears. (1-trip detection logic) Output signal duty equals to 100%. (NOTE: SL2 output signal duty is less than 100% under normal condition.)	Open or short in shift solenoid valve SL2 circuit Shift solenoid valve SL2 ECM

Reference (Using an oscilloscope):

Check the waveform between the terminals SL2+ and SL2- of the ECM connector
